Concurrent Users License Model

In a Part-CAO organisation, fleet size can grow quickly — and it’s not always a simple “more aircraft = more admin.”

But many CMMS licensing models assume exactly that:

📌 Charge per aircraft

📌 Charge per named user

The result? Costs balloon even when actual system usage stays the same (often a small group of planners, engineers, and quality staff).

SAM CMMS takes a different approach that fits Part-CAO reality:

✅ Unlimited number of aircraft

✅ Unlimited number of users

✅ Licensing is based on:

  1. the modules you choose (only pay for what you need), and
  2. the number of concurrent users (only pay for how many people need access at the same time)

Why this is a big deal for Part-CAO teams:

  • You can add aircraft without a “license tax” per tail
  • You can include contractors and cross-functional stakeholders without worrying about named-user counts
  • You keep costs predictable while scaling operations
  • You enable wider adoption internally without budget friction

When evaluating a CMMS, the licensing model isn’t a footnote — it’s a strategic decision that affects scalability, uptake, and total cost of ownership.

If your organisation manages a large or expanding fleet, “per aircraft” pricing can be one of the most expensive surprises.
