BUILD THE CATALINA SPAR™ WITH US

We are assembling a qualified supply base for an FAA Part 25 transport-category amphibious aircraft. If your shop builds aerospace-grade structures, systems, or components, we want to hear from you.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Catalina partners with suppliers who hold the certifications and disciplines a transport-category program demands. The strongest candidates demonstrate the following.

QUALITY & AEROSPACE STANDARDS

AS9100 certification for aerospace quality management. Demonstrated conformance, first-article inspection discipline, and traceability across the supply chain.

INFORMATION SECURITY

ISO 27001 or SOC 2 controls protecting design data, drawings, and program information. Mature handling of sensitive and proprietary technical packages.

FAA PART 145 REPAIR

FAA Part 145 Repair Station authorization for maintenance, modification, and overhaul scopes relevant to a Part 25 transport-category amphibian.

ITAR & EXPORT COMPLIANCE

ITAR registration and EAR awareness for defense and dual-use mission variants. Controlled handling of technical data across maritime patrol and gunship configurations.

ATA CHAPTER CAPABILITY

Defined scope by ATA chapter (structures, hydraulics, fuel, landing gear, avionics, powerplant) so we can map your strengths to the SPAR™ work breakdown.

PRODUCTION READINESS

Rate capacity, tooling, and on-time delivery performance to scale from prototype build through serial production at our Vero Beach final assembly line.
