The capstone project, "Advanced Machine Learning for Component Failure Prediction in
Aviation," aims to improve aviation operations' efficiency, safety, and dependability by utilising
state-of-the-art machine learning and data analytics methods. In order to guarantee passenger
safety and lower maintenance costs, it is crucial for the aviation sector to keep aircraft and
componentry in optimal condition (Dangut et al., 2021). Unexpected component failures can cause
cancellations, delays, and, in the worst case, accidents during flights. The goal of this research is
to anticipate component failures ahead of time so that proactive maintenance can be performed.
The business justification for this project is based on several crucial factors:
a. Safety: An aircraft's safety is its first priority. The likelihood of problems occurring during flight
can be significantly reduced by anticipating component failures, hence increasing passenger safety.
c. Cost Reduction: Proactive maintenance can save money by preventing expensive component
d. Competitive Advantage: Airlines and maintenance providers that can predict and prevent
component failures will have a competitive advantage in the industry because they can provide
predictive maintenance guidelines could make it easier to meet requirements and avoid legal issues
(Korvesis, 2017).
Obtaining business leadership approval is crucial because:
• Leadership approval ensures that the project is aligned with organisational goals, that
necessary resources are allocated, and that the project is committed to success.
a. Increased Safety: The project improves aviation personnel, crew, and passenger safety by
the project assists the organisation in improving decision-making and operations over time.
e. Competitive Advantage: The company establishes itself as a leader in the industry and draws
customers looking for trustworthy and secure aviation services by utilizing advanced machine
components in flight is not only a safety necessity, but a strategic approach that can take business
