In recent months, scandals of components with falsified documentation have exposed an uncomfortable reality: many companies are not prepared to detect an altered document or incomplete traceability. The case of AOG Technics—a company that sold engine parts with forged signatures and fictional employee profiles—forced airlines, MROs, and manufacturers to track down thousands of parts installed on commercial aircraft. This is compounded by the use of titanium with fraudulent paperwork in Boeing and Airbus planes. The problem was not just the material, but the system’s inability to detect the anomaly in time.
