Bombardier Expands Global Maintenance Network; Services Revenue Rises
What happened
Bombardier is expanding its maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) presence in Australia, Singapore, and Delaware. The company reported that its backlog of aircraft and services reached $21.8 billion in the first six months of 2026, up from $16.1 billion in the same period last year.

Why it matters
The expansion supports Bombardier's strategy to increase the contribution of aftermarket services, which grew from 24% of total revenue in 2025 to 31% in the second quarter of 2026. This growth is part of a five-year turnaround initiated by Eric Martel, who has focused on accelerating aftermarket services and diversifying the company through initiatives like Bombardier Defense.
