A low investment provisioning program is offered through the ABACUS spares parts leasing program, a full-service logistic facility that hinges on three integrated aspects:

1. A stock of leased components located with the operators, which serves to cover AOG needs
2. A forward exchange service within 24 hours from a pool of high value and critical components at Fokker Services
3. A repair and maintenance service for all unserviceable components. After repair, the unserviceable unit will be placed in the pool

The operator can participate in the program, available for the Fokker 50, 60, 70, 100 and Bombardier Dash-8, with a suitable selection of components that cover his specific needs. The lease rental for the components at the customer's location and the access fee for the pool are dependent on the selection of components desired. The repair and maintenance service is available on an invoice basis or other contractual basis, such as Flight Hour Agreement.

The advantages of this ABACUS program compared to buying the components are:

• No up-front investment in the most expensive rotable parts
• No unusuable stock or surplus risk
• Reduced storage, handling, administrative and insurance costs
• No warranty handling costs
• No modification costs for stocked components, resulting from mandatory modifications
• Reduced procurement costs

Operators will have ease of mind and completely transparent expenses for as long as they are registered with the program, no unexpected peaks in the repair payments, no sudden additional parts purchases required, and low initial investment.
