Effective beginning the 1st of July, David Lamoureux has assumed the role of chief executive officer at Bonus Tech, an Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance joint venture based in Miami and an engine teardown expert. Engine teardown facilitates the generation of used serviceable and repairable material from end-of-life engines and is a key enabler of circularity in engine materials, contributing to the drive for sustainability in the aviation industry.
Lamoureux succeeds Aurélie Kergoat, who in her five years as Bonus Tech’s CEO has led its development into the company it is today. Kergoat drove growth in Bonus Tech’s engine portfolio, increased turnover and profitability, and launched the development of complementary services for its customers, for example, engine inspection to be offered through Bonus Tech Engine Services, including Part 145 Approval.
“I want to warmly thank and commend Aurélie for the leadership she has demonstrated, for her tireless efforts and for the fantastic shape in which she hands over Bonus Tech Inc. into David’s hands,” Michael Grootenboer, AFI KLM E&M SVP group engines product and Bonus Tech Inc. “I want to welcome David to the Bonus Tech family. I am fully confident that with his extensive knowledge and experience he will continue the development and success of the company.”
Lamoureux arrives with 15 years of experience in the MRO Engine business at AFI KLM E&M, from dedicated logistics, asset lifecycle management, engine maintenance operations and most recently served as technical sales director for CFM56-5 and GE90 Engine maintenance services worldwide. He also brings project and change management experience as a Six Sigma Black Belt.
