Pat Gardner is a Director and seasoned ILS/Supportability Engineer with over 8 years of consultancy experience and a decades-long background in avionics from a Royal Air Force career. He specialises in LSAR/LSA, supportability analysis databases, big data manipulation, and VBA-driven data extraction and validation for complex defence programmes including Rolls Royce and the Queen Elizabeth carrier. Pat has delivered training curricula and training needs analyses for military and naval customers, and designed avionics course modules for elite maintenance teams like the Red Arrows. He blends hands-on technical work—reconciling supportability databases, producing S1000D/S2000M outputs and provisioning lists—with programme-level management of supportability delivery. Known for pragmatic tooling and automation (MS Access/Excel/Odbc/VBA) to accelerate uploads and reporting, he reliably turns sprawling technical documentation into auditable, provisioned asset data. Based in Church Stretton, he is currently available for contract work bringing deep domain knowledge across defence logistics and engineering data workflows.
