    Abstract: A system of one or more processors for creating an engineering order for aircraft from a published, electronic service bulletin is disclosed. The system may include an interface, a database, and an engineering order (EO) module in operative communication with the interface and the database. The EO module may be configured to receive service bulletin data from the interface, access the database, and filter out a plurality of aircraft from the aircraft fleet information in the database based on the service bulletin data. The EO module may be further configured to receive a service bulletin configuration status for the aircraft, and divide the plurality of aircraft into different groups of aircraft based on the service bulletin configuration status for the aircraft. The EO module may be further configured to extract service bulletin data that is applicable to the different groups of aircraft, and generate an engineering order.
