Flyward, the fast-growing aviation finance intelligence platform, has announced a strategic partnership with mba Aviation, a global leader in aircraft appraisal, asset management, and aviation advisory services. The collaboration brings together Flyward’s advanced software and AI capabilities with mba Aviation’s decades of trusted data, expertise, and industry insight.
Originally recognized for its strong maintenance cashflow forecasting capabilities, Flyward has rapidly evolved into a broader aircraft finance intelligence suite. The platform now places a strong emphasis on AI-driven tools designed to help aviation finance professionals analyze assets faster, with greater clarity and confidence. Recent product enhancements include the launch of a transaction pricing module, with continued development planned to further support investment and leasing decisions.
Flyward enables users to bring their own asset data, lease contracts, and maintenance program information into a single environment, either through system integrations or via AI-powered document readers embedded within the platform. This flexible approach allows users to work with complex datasets efficiently while maintaining full control over their information.
Through this partnership, Flyward and mba Aviation are integrating their respective platforms, connecting Flyward with mba’s AERO asset management system. As a result, Flyward users will gain access to mba Aviation’s extensive knowledge base directly within the Flyward platform, while AERO users will benefit from Flyward’s powerful analytics and forecasting engine embedded into their workflows.
“Merging mba Aviation’s trusted data and advisory expertise with Flyward’s AI-driven analysis creates a powerful foundation for the next generation of aviation finance tools,” said Bogdan Ciceu, CTO at Flyward. “Our focus has been on building flexible, intelligent software that allows users to work with complex data faster and with greater confidence, and this partnership accelerates that vision significantly.”
“Integrating Flyward into AERO delivers one-click maintenance cashflow forecasting with the most current fleet data available,” said David Tokoph, President and CEO of mba Aviation. “This integration allows for AERO users to access the power of Flyward’s forecast while managing their fleet within a single, unified platform to support more informed, data-driven decision making across the asset lifecycle.”
Founded in 1992, mba Aviation has built a global reputation as an independent and trusted advisor to airlines, lessors, financial institutions, and government agencies. Its software solutions, including AERO and the REDBOOK aircraft valuation platform, are widely used across the industry for asset management, valuation, and investment analysis.
The partnership reflects Flyward’s continued progress and growing recognition in the aviation finance ecosystem, as the company expands beyond forecasting into a comprehensive intelligence platform built for modern, intelligent decision making.
