Serviceable
A serviceable part has been inspected or maintained by an approved organisation and is certified as fit for installation on an aircraft.
Serviceable stock carries a valid release certificate and can generally be fitted without further shop work, which is why it commands a premium over as-removed material during urgent requirements.
Shelf life, storage conditions and time-since-overhaul still influence acceptability for a given customer or workscope.
During an AOG event, serviceable availability is often worth more than a lower price on a part that needs a shop visit first.
