Industry

Aviation Collections Get it flying. Then get paid.

Maintenance and repair, parts suppliers, FBOs and charter operators. When an aircraft is on the ground, getting it back in the air comes first and credit comes second. Knowing the industry, and the tools inside it, is what gets a difficult customer to pay.

Why it goes unpaid

The account is late for a reason.

Get it flying. Then get paid.

Collecting in aviation takes a team that understands the industry: maintenance and repair shops, parts suppliers, FBOs and charter operators, and the tools and resources that exist inside that world. Knowing how to use them is what makes the difference when it is time to collect from a difficult customer. Invoices are large and the work is time sensitive, so we move quickly and stay professional from the first call.

When an aircraft is on the ground, your customer needs it back in the air, and fast. In that moment credit is not the first thing anyone thinks about, not your operations team and not your customer. That is how good customers end up with past due balances.

Who we work with: Maintenance and repair, parts suppliers, FBOs and charter operators.

How it works

Five steps. The first one costs nothing.

  1. Tell us what happened

    How much you are owed, who owes it, how old it is and what has already been tried. A short conversation, not an onboarding process.

  2. You get an honest read

    Before you place anything, we review the account and tell you straight whether it is worth pursuing, how long it is likely to take and what it will take to recover. If we do not believe it can be collected, we tell you that up front, before you spend any more time on it.

  3. Send the paperwork

    The contract, the invoices, the proof of work. Whatever establishes that the debt is real and that it is owed to you.

  4. A veteran collector works it

    Someone who has worked your industry for decades. You get status updates and reporting throughout, so you always know where the account stands.

  5. You get paid

    We collect, and we pay you. Recovered money is remitted to you every week, and there is no fee unless we collect.

The terms

No fee unless we collect.

  1. No fee unless we collect

    Contingency, with no management fee and no paperwork fee. If nothing is recovered, you owe nothing.

  2. Legal forwarding at no markup

    Most agencies work an account for a week or two, hand it to legal, then raise the contingency rate or add a legal management fee. The rate does not change here and there is no management fee. You pay filing fees and court costs at cost. It stays a last resort.

  3. Weekly remittances

    Money that comes in goes out to you every week, so a recovery does not sit in someone else's account improving their cash flow instead of yours.

  4. Domestic and international

    Including overseas creditors owed by companies in the United States, where waiting for the statute to run is the most common and most expensive mistake.

  5. We find out why they are not paying

    A company that cannot pay and a company that will not pay need opposite approaches. Working out which one you are dealing with comes before anything else.

  6. Status updates and reporting

    You are told where the account stands without having to chase your own collection agency for an answer.

Questions

Asked by aviation companies.

Who do you collect for in aviation?

Maintenance and repair shops, parts suppliers, FBOs and charter operators. The invoices are large and the work is time sensitive, so accounts are worked quickly and professionally by a team that understands the industry and the tools inside it.

Do you only collect commercial debt in aviation?

Yes. Every account we take is owed by one business to another business. We do not collect consumer debt, and we do not take accounts owed by individuals.

What does it cost?

It is contingency. There is no fee unless money is collected, no management fee and no paperwork fee. If the account is placed and nothing is recovered, you owe nothing.

What do you need from me to start?

Whatever establishes that the debt is real and that it is owed to you. Usually the contract or the purchase order, the invoices, and proof that the work was done or the goods were delivered.

Will this damage the relationship with my customer?

The first job is working out why they are not paying, because a customer who cannot pay and a customer who will not pay need opposite approaches. Where the relationship is still worth keeping, the account is worked in a way that leaves it standing.

What if it has to go to an attorney?

Legal forwarding is a last resort and it does not change your rate. There is no legal management fee. You pay the filing fees and court costs at cost, with no markup.

Commercial (B2B) collections only. We do not collect consumer debt.

Let’s go get your money.

Bring the account. You get a straight answer on whether it is worth placing, what the timeline looks like and what it will take to get you paid.

Owed by a business? B2B collections only.
