EBis was featured in the September 1999 issue of Aircraft Maintenance Technology (page 58). Here is what the article states:

Maintenance personnel know what they want

Michael Lentini, owner of Aero-West Specialties, an aircraft full service center at the Santa Maria Airport in Santa Maria, California, did just that. The feedback from technicians proved instrumental in the development and production of EBis, a billing information system software that also provides maintenance tracking and a contact database of customers and vendors. Lentini, along with Eric Baal, a college sophomore studying Computer Science, took suggestions - usually daily - from the technicians on the floor to fine tune this software to provide a seamless interface with the sop floor, the parts department, and the front office.

EBis is a complete billing system. It will track all time on any discrepancy and allows up to three technicians for each discrepancy. Work order estimates will show actual time for each squawk, as well as the time to complete the whole work order automatically. EBis keeps a complete parts inventory and automatically deducts for all parts billed to any work order. Also, every time a part is used, the system marks a product usage file so that parts used can be tracked for inventory. And, every part on the customer's invoice has a discrepancy number next to it to show just where each part was used.
Lentini explains, "Basically, this software was designed by IAs - it's simple to use and works the way a shop really works - not the way some CPA thinks it should."

Aero-West technicians, Adam Halop, Ron Martinson, and Mitch VanOsdel, who all helped with feedback for the software, are thrilled with how EBis has made their lives on the floor easier. They are able to file their logbook entries while working on the aircraft from laptop computers hooked up on their toolboxes and can print out a cost status report or final invoice for customers. All three are impressed by the fact that they can do everything from their toolboxes.
