LTCS expands footprint in the Americas with new Tulsa facility

Lufthansa Technik Component Services celebrated the official opening of its new state-of-the-art facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA. The 25,000 square foot building represents the first major milestone in a two-part expansion program and introduces 90 new workstations, an upgraded avionics workshop, and expanded administrative areas to support the growing demand for component maintenance, repair, and overhaul across the Americas. 

The newest building is the third on the LTCS Tulsa campus. Combined with ongoing renovations in the original two buildings, the expansion will result in a major increase in production space. Among the notable new capabilities is the repair & overhaul of Integrated Drive Generators used in Airbus A320ceo and A320neo as well as Boeing 737NG and MAX aircraft. Tulsa facility has a wide range of component workshops, including avionics, galley components, emergency equipment, hydraulics, pneumatics, and fuel systems, ensuring comprehensive support for all major commercial aircraft types. Customers across the Americas also benefit from LTCS’s extensive customer service organization, material management services, warehousing capabilities, and 24/7 component availability from strategically stocked material stores across the region.

All services are fully integrated into Lufthansa Technik’s global network, with major component hubs in Hamburg and Frankfurt, Germany, and Shenzhen, China. This alignment enables Tulsa to serve as a key gateway for component support solutions in the Americas—particularly for operators seeking greater reliability, deeper technical integration, and long‑term lifecycle support.

As part of Lufthansa Technik’s strategic growth plan for the region, LTCS announced its intention to more than triple the size of the new building. This second phase will further increase production capacity and enable additional capabilities mainly in pneumatics and complex avionics, and service innovations tailored to the needs of operators in the Americas.

Tobias Baumgart, Managing Director LTCS commented: “With this significant strategic investment, we are expanding our capabilities in the aviation hub Tulsa, to be in the region for the region. It strengthens our presence as a premium partner and underscores our commitment to being an attractive employer in the area. We are grateful for the strong partnership with state of Oklahoma and our Tulsa community.” 

Harald Gloy, COO of Lufthansa Technik stated: “The Americas represent a key market for MRO services worldwide. With this expansion, we build on our long-standing presence on the continent and further reaffirm our commitment to delivering world-class technical services close to our customers. This is another milestone that highlights our dedication to meeting the evolving needs and reinforces our position as leading global MRO.”

“Lufthansa Technik Component Services’ new Tulsa facility marks a major milestone for Oklahoma’s aerospace industry, strengthening our position as a leading hub for MRO services in the Americas,” said John Budd, CEO of the Oklahoma Department of Commerce, who attended the ribbon cutting ceremony alongside key partners. “This expansion brings advanced capabilities, state‑of‑the‑art infrastructure, and high‑quality jobs that underscore the confidence global companies place in Oklahoma’s workforce and business environment. We value Lufthansa Technik’s continued investment and are proud to support their long‑term growth in our state.”

“This expansion represents more than a new building. It represents new opportunities for skilled aviation professionals in our community and expanded capabilities that strengthen Tulsa’s reputation for world-class aviation services,” said Alexis Higgins, Chief Executive Officer at Tulsa International Airport. “We are proud to have Lufthansa Technik as a longtime partner at TUL and excited to celebrate another milestone in their continued growth here.”
