Washington, D.C.-based Potomac Solutions entered into a multi-year relationship with Phoenix Heliparts of Mesa, Ariz. The agreement will bring a range of aviation maintenance and repair organization capabilities and technologies to the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

Potomac Solutions specializes in platform and systems acquisition, modification and integration, third-party logistics and distribution. Phoenix Heliparts, a specialist in MD 500, Bell UH-1, Bell 407 and AH-1 Cobra helicopter maintenance, is expanding its target area to serve clients in the MENA region.

Phoenix Heliparts president Tina Cannon believes the MENA market is currently underserved. “We have proven solutions for aircraft systems upgrades, integration, airframe repair and modification, and a well earned reputation for getting the job done efficiently and effectively,” she said.

In addition to its light to medium helicopter specialization the company is also involved in the fixed-wing market. It recently won contracts from the U.S. State Department for major modification and upgrades for two Dash 8 turboprops.
