AI and automation will improve sourcing, supplier engagement, pricing, reporting and requisition management across S&K's aerospace sustainment business

ST. IGNATIUS, Mont., October 22, 2026--S&K Aerospace, LLC (SKA) today announced a partnership with SalesPatriot to deploy artificial intelligence and workflow automation across its aerospace maintenance, repair, supply and sustainment operations, including the recently awarded U.S. Air Force Parts and Repair Ordering System 7 (PROS 7) contract.

The partnership will improve how S&K manages thousands of supply and repair requirements supporting U.S. military and international customers. SalesPatriot will be deployed across S&K's maintenance, repair and overhaul operations and incorporated into the PROS 7 operating environment.

S&K plans to use SalesPatriot to improve sourcing and supplier engagement, increase vendor response, reduce avoidable cancellations, streamline pricing documentation, automate reporting and identify aging requirements earlier.

S&K Aerospace received award notification in September 2026 for the $4.3 billion PROS 7 single-award IDIQ contract. PROS provides supply, repair and logistics support for Foreign Military Sales customers, including non-standard and difficult-to-support requirements.

"From an operations standpoint, the real value is being able to see problems sooner and spend less time working around disconnected processes," said Mike Delaney, Vice President of Operations for S&K Aerospace. "If we can identify sourcing problems earlier, get better information to suppliers, reduce manual follow-up and know which requirements are starting to get into trouble, we have a much better chance of preventing delays and cancellations. That directly improves performance for our customers."

SalesPatriot will automate activities throughout the supply and repair lifecycle, including source research, supplier identification, pricing analysis, quote comparison, vendor follow-up, documentation, reporting and management dashboards.

"This is about using technology to help us scale what S&K already does well," said Tim Horne, Senior Vice President of Business Development for S&K Aerospace. "We support a large and growing portfolio of requirements across U.S. and international customers, and there is significant opportunity in connecting that activity more effectively. Better data, faster sourcing and greater visibility should help us respond to more opportunities, bring more of S&K's capabilities to our customers and continue growing the business without adding unnecessary administrative complexity."
