This can include reporting and ordering functions integrated to your IT systems.

Aircraft engine logistics

DSV Aerospace has over 20 years-experience with aircraft engines and handles thousands of aircraft engines each year. As an experienced aerospace logistics supplier, our team provides a full range of transport and logistics services for all engine types.

Spare parts and AOG logistics

Outsize logistics requires bespoke cargo handling 

From air and ship chartering to project management for an outsize load, we understand that project logistics requires the utmost attention to detail. Our team has a proven track record in providing end-to-end project management by developing tailored transport solutions, creating project standard operating procedures (SOP’s) and conducting in-house transport engineering.

Subcontractor management
