``Being recognized by a pre-eminent, global financial publication like Forbes is further testimony that PartsBase's vision of a
neutral portal that offers a comprehensive product offering suite, with rich content, will gain the critical mass required to
consolidate this highly fragmented vertical'' said Andy Plyler, PartsBase's COO.
``The value of aviation exchange marketplaces will continue to be driven by the quality of execution that organizations will
be able to deliver. This business dynamic will continue to separate exchanges that will proliferate to the ones that will
struggle and eventually exit the market. To ensure that we maximize our strategic intent to execute, PartsBase will continue to
form alliances and develop the technologies necessary to expand its lead,'' Plyler continued. |
