Boeing Distribution and LPA Group announced a new distribution agreement that adds 75 parts to Boeing Distribution's portfolio for BAGA operators.

Boeing Distribution and LPA Group announced a new distribution agreement to expand access to ground support equipment for business jet, helicopter, and business and general aviation (BAGA) operators worldwide. The agreement adds 75 parts to Boeing Distribution's portfolio.

Why it matters: The move gives operators a single source for more certified ground power equipment, reducing lead times and making sourcing simpler.

Driving the news: The products include battery start packs, continuous power supply units, combination start and continuous power units, and electrical cables and connectors.

Zoom in: Boeing Distribution's global supply chain network aligns with the LPA Group’s 70+ years of ground support equipment design and manufacturing experience.

  • Routing LPA Red Box Aviation equipment through Boeing Distribution's global inventory positions and established procurement channels reduces lead times and cuts the number of steps operators take to source critical ground power equipment.
  • LPA Group holds ISO 9001, AS 9120 and ISO 14001 certification
  • Many of its products are NATO codified, supporting consistent product quality across civilian and military operator environments
