The ASECTT Consultancy Acquisition Process:
- Acquisition Agreement / Needs and Cost Analysis
AC will work with you to establish the terms and conditions of your acquisition agreement. AC will help you determine and establish your needs for an aircraft, including aircraft type, model, year, total time, and equipment while keeping you within your operating budget.
- Market Research
AC will assess current market strengths and weaknesses. AC will determine the number of aircraft available and evaluate current asking and selling prices.
- Aircraft Identification
AC will identify every available aircraft in the market through direct contact with owners, discreet survey of our customers, and present best value aircraft in a clear and concise manner allowing easy comparison.
- Validate & Evaluation Analysis
AC will determine a first round of recommended aircraft selections based upon total time, year, equipment, engine times, inspections status, damage history, paint/interior, ownership history and maintenance history. In order to demonstrate value differences between selected aircraft for you, the AC will conduct a quantitative analysis by assigning values for equipment, condition and maintenance. We will perform an in-depth analysis of each aircraft meeting your every need. This provides our clients with the simplest possible way to compare aircraft and make a final decision.
