Yes, SCATS™ UxSatellite™ examines for deviations outside the boundaries of parameters, just like traditional testing, but also uses patterns of behavior (the voice of the aircraft) to expand the field of investigation to include the possibility of outliers existing within the boundaries of parameters.

Traditional, parameters-based testing offers limited actionable knowledge and produces prodigious rates of No Fault Found (NFF). Customers report roughly 50% of all traditional parameters-based LRU tests result in NFF. Undetected & unresolved problems re-enter the supply system through LRU wrongly marked as functional. The same problems repeat themselves creating an avionics treadmill, supply chain disruptions, excess cost, diminished aircraft readiness, and potential safety compromises.

ULTRAX’s Listen-Know-Act methodology is an outliers-based investigative discipline utilizing patterns of behavior to examine for outliers both inside and outside the boundaries of parameters. Customers identify, investigate, and resolve outliers to decelerate their avionics treadmill, accelerate turnaround times, decrease supply chain disruptions, recapture budget, improve fleet readiness, and reduce carried risk.

Yes. The voice of the aircraft reveals actionable outliers creating the knowledge necessary to return many LRU to a verifiable state free from adverse outliers. Each repair activity incorporates lessons learned to continually improve the SCATS™ UxSatellite™.

Typical turnaround times range from one day to one week. Some repairs take a little longer. Regardless, you will be updated as to estimated time of completion.

Your serial number is yours and is always returned to you. You maintain line of sight visibility into the state and disposition of your asset throughout UxSatellite™ depot activity.

SCATS™ UxSatellite™ is configurable for virtually any LRU. The SCATS™ UxSatellite™ Configuration Tuning process is a four-step process lasting no more than 105 days in total: tabletop viability, solution collaboration, configuration tuning, and on-wing or on-bench validation. Some outlier strategies may be executable within days. Inquire regarding ready solutions.

SCATS™ deployments are configured to local source-power specifications and aircraft & avionic power specifications.

Our Configuration Tuning Kit supports LRU from various aircraft types including but not limited to CH-47F, UH-60A/L/M/V, AH-64D/E, fixed-wing military, and commercial aircraft. Inquire regarding ready solutions.

Yes. UxValidator Series Pod Sets are designed for maintainers to listen to the voice of the aircraft on the wing. UxValidator Series Pod Sets are built on the same ULTRAX technology stack as the SCATS™ UxSatellite™. Many customers wisely choose to attack the central problem of LRU churn on the aircraft while it is in a fully connected state offering the widest possible field of investigation and the most complete voice of the aircraft.

Listen-Know-Act is the ULTRAX method of Listening to the voice of the aircraft. It is a scientific method using patterns of behavior and outlier strategies to identify (Listen), investigate and resolve outliers (Know), and Act accordingly. Customers develop their own institutionalized outlier strategies to achieve scalable Listen-Know-Act.

Well-developed outlier strategies executed uniformly across your enterprise from time-to-time, place-to-place, and person-to-person. Mature, scalable Listen-Know-Act consistently produces your intended outcomes and increases your control over your Safety, Readiness, and Savings.

Safety: Reduce carried risk by increasing consistency of desired outcomes.

Readiness: Convert maintenance hours to readiness hours.

Savings: Save time, parts, personnel, assets, & infrastructure.

Integrators & OEM: Faster, safer, more efficient verification.

Operators & Fleets: Improved readiness rates and faster turnaround times.

Maintainers: Fewer maintenance actions, force multiplication, and informed simplicity.

Parts supply chain: Reduced churn of LRUs and engines.

ULTRAX customers augment their existing lifecycle programs with ULTRAX Scalable Listen-Know-Act to more thoroughly listen to the voice of the aircraft, improve through-life sustainability, improve success metrics, strengthen warranty support, and insulate from pre-existing conditions.

ULTRAX deploys both confidential UxSatellites™ and open-access UxSatellites™. Most SCATS™ deployments are negotiated confidential UxSatellites™ each serving the unique wants and needs of the operating partner. ULTRAX has deployed two open access UxSatellites™, one employed by ULTRAX in the central United States and one employed by our European Union and Middle East partner, PZL-Mielec in Mielec, Poland. Open access UxSatellites™ are open to all customers, including existing confidential UxSatellite™ partners.

Any customer may engage either of the open access SCATS™ UxSatellite™ Service Center Depots for their avionics depot needs. Either depot can help with your inquiry even if it means the service work is performed at the other depot. With that said, the open access SCATS™ UxSatellites™ are generally aligned with the following regions:

North America: ULTRAX Service Center Depot, Lee’s Summit, MO, USA

South America: ULTRAX Service Center Depot, Lee’s Summit, MO, USA

Europe: PZL-Mielec Service Center Depot, Mielec, Poland

Middle East: PZL-Mielec Service Center Depot, Mielec, Poland

Africa: PZL-Mielec Service Center Depot, Mielec, Poland

Asia: Either Service Center Depot

Pacifica: Either Service Center Depot
