What Areas of Business do you wish SPEC2000 to address?

SPEC2000 is broken down into modules; each module contains a number of A4A (ATA) SPEC2000 Chapters. Each Chapter addresses a different type and/or area of business. We have grouped the Chapters and developed software to address the following areas:

• Chapters 2,3 & 4 - SPEC2000 Order Administration - Aircraft Parts or Spare Parts - Quotes, Orders, Invoices, Enquiries & Central Procurement Database Access
• Chapters 7 & 8 - SPEC2000 Repair Order Administration - Repair & Overhaul of Aircraft Parts - Quotes, Orders, Invoices, Enquiries & Central Repair Database Access
• Chapter 11 - Reliability Data Collection and Exchange - Exchange part reliability, aircraft ownership changes, event and logbook data in the standardised A4A (ATA) format.
• Chapter 12 - SPEC2000 AIRS - software to access the A4A (ATA) Airline Inventory Re-Distribution System Database. Allows subscribers to view data and part owners to update, delete and add information on aircraft parts. AIRS specifically addresses surplus stock and second hand aircraft parts.
• Chapter 14 - SPEC2000 Warranty Claim Placement - Warranty Administration - Warranty Claim Placement, Progress Enquiries, Reporting the Outcome

The SPEC2000 software enables you to choose any combination of SPEC2000 modules and incorporate them into one fully integrated, cohesive package. You can purchase one, two, three or four modules, at increasing rates of discount. If at any time in the future you find you require any additional modules, these can be added to your current system, in a seamless manner.

Blue Flag Technologies SPEC2000 Message Portal

The Blue Flag Technologies SPEC2000 Message Portal is a service fully developed and controlled by Blue Flag Technologies to allow message access to your SPEC2000 installation by your trading partners with just an Internet connection.

Once login and security information has been established, your trading partner is given the option of entering message data for the message types that you have chosen to receive.

The entry screen will only allow a valid message that complies with the A4A (ATA) standard to be included in the message. The message will be displayed in your SPEC2000 summary in the normal way, but clearly identified as originating from the Blue Flag Technologies SPEC2000 Message Portal

Blue Flag Technologies SPEC2000 XML Modules

The Blue Flag Technologies SPEC2000 XML Module allows you to send and receive messages that adhere to the A4A’s (ATA’s) XML specification to and from your trading partners.

The XML module will function seamlessly within the standard Blue Flag Technologies SPEC2000 environment and will be displayed in the usual way when opened and printed, but can be clearly identified by the XML data contents on the message display if required.
