Honeywell unveils Ensemble digital maintenance solution
Honeywell has unveiled digital maintenance solution Ensemble for its business jet turbofan engines.
The end-to-end service downloads and transmits information to analyse and monitor engine condition after every flight.
It is available through Honeywell’s propulsion Maintenance Service Plan (MSP) for engines.
“Honeywell Ensemble allows operators to benefit from timely and unique insights about how engines are performing,” said Dave Marinick, president, Engines and Power Systems, Honeywell Aerospace Technologies.
“The real-time insight provided by Honeywell Ensemble will not only increase aircraft uptime and availability, but it will also give operators enhanced mission assurance and will ultimately provide a better passenger experience.”

The data from Ensemble is transmitted under a secure protocol to Honeywell Forge, a cloud-based data analytics platform. Insights and alerts are available to operators via the Forge Engine Data Viewer and the Honeywell Ensemble mobile application.
Other upcoming features include auto-billing, online contract renewal and a digital engine logbook, which will ensure engine maintenance records are “accurate, organised and up to date”.
Honeywell Ensemble is now available for Bombardier Challenger 300, 350 and 3500 aircraft, Textron Longitude and Embraer Legacy and Praetor models. In 2025, it will be expanded to other aircraft, including the Dassault Falcon 900A/B.
