airline spare part inventory

Hello all,
I have a question fir those involved with spare parts and logistics (quality managers, technical storemans etc)...

I work for a helicopter company operate a fleet of 12 helicopters, as you can immagine we have a rather large spare part inventory. However we are thinking of changing the program we use to insert and keep a database of the whole inventory...

We currently use a programme called Filemaker but we need to change, its a program in .dos and if you delete something its gone forever (you can immagine how this could lead to errors)...

Does anyone have any suggestion on what programs to use?? We have two IT experts that are making a program just for our spare parts but im a bit sceptical...

I was wondering what the larger airlines/maintenace centers use to keep a track of all their spare parts (each individual tag, the position of thier EASA form one/8130, their physical position on the shelf, the quantity etc)


thanks!!
