Continuum CMP runs the shop floor. FileFlo holds the PMI binder.
This isn't FileFlo versus Continuum. Continuum / CAMP CMP is the enterprise maintenance, parts, and accounting platform that runs a maintenance shop floor every hour: work orders, technician labor, parts inventory, AD library, and QuickBooks or NetSuite GL. FileFlo is a different layer, built for the Part 135 operator: it holds the signed §43.9 / §43.7 / §43.13 evidence and the §135.63 / §91.417 records per aircraft, watches the §91.409 annual on a 12-calendar-month cycle, and builds an audit packet for the inspector. Keep the shop-floor system. Add the audit binder.
Includes 30 days of FileFlo. Then $150 per aircraft per month for 1 to 15 aircraft, if you continue at day 30; nothing is charged if you do not.
No data migration
One runs the shop floor. One holds the proof.
Continuum CMP runs the enterprise
It dispatches work orders, captures technician labor, manages the parts catalog and vendor POs, cross-references the AD library, and posts customer invoices to QuickBooks or NetSuite. It is genuinely the right tool for the daily shop-floor workflow; keep using it. Continuum was built to run the maintenance enterprise, not to be the signed regulatory archive the FAA PMI pulls under 8900.1 Volume 6.
FileFlo is the audit evidence layer
For a Part 135 operator, it holds the signed §43.9 entries with the §43.7 RTS sign-offs and §43.13 acceptable-data evidence, the Form 8130-3 attachments, and the §135.63 / §91.417 records per aircraft, watches the §91.409 annual on a 12-calendar-month cycle, and builds an audit packet with an inspector link limited to one aircraft or one crew. The layer Continuum was never designed to be, and FileFlo is decoupled from any future Continuum migration decision.
Where each tool actually wins.
For a Part 135 operator on Continuum / CAMP CMP the answer is both: keep Continuum CMP for the enterprise maintenance + parts + accounting workflow that runs the shop floor daily; add FileFlo for the compliance document evidence layer the inspector pulls. Aviation starts with the Audit-Ready Crew Records Setup; 16 or more aircraft, air medical and fractional operations are priced by written quote. The two are complements: Continuum shows the work-order data, FileFlo holds the signed §43.9 entries behind them.

Where each tool sits inside §145.211, §145.219, §43.9, §43.13, and §91.417.
The Part 145 + Part 135 + Part 91 maintenance recordkeeping regulations map cleanly onto the right operating model. Here is the breakdown.
14 CFR §145.211: Quality Control Manual (QCM)
§145.211 requires every Part 145 certificated repair station to prepare, keep current, and follow a Quality Control Manual (QCM) acceptable to the FAA Administrator. The QCM must contain the procedures for performing maintenance, preventive maintenance, and alterations on articles for which the repair station is rated; the §145.213 inspection of maintenance procedures; the §145.215 capability list amendment procedures; the §145.217 contract maintenance procedures; the §145.219 recordkeeping procedures; the §145.221 SDR procedures; the §145.205(b) compliance with §43.13 procedures; the system of supervision and the system for ensuring the competency of personnel under §145.155; the procedures for revising the QCM whenever any procedure changes; and the procedures for ensuring the QCM is made available to all personnel performing maintenance under the repair station certificate. FAA Order 8900.1 Volume 6 governs PMI surveillance of Part 145 QCM compliance. Continuum CMP holds the work-order data and the technician labor data; it does not hold the §145.211 QCM document itself, it does not version-track QCM revisions, and it does not hold the FAA-acknowledgment correspondence chain.
14 CFR §145.219: Recordkeeping
§145.219 requires every Part 145 repair station to keep all maintenance records (including the §43.9 entries, the §43.7 RTS sign-offs, the work order documentation, the inspector certifications, the Form 8130-3 Authorized Release Certificates for components, the customer aircraft tail-specific retention records, and the SDRs filed under §145.221) for at least 2 years from the date the article was approved for return to service, and to make those records available to the Administrator on request. The §145.219 retention file must be organized to support PMI surveillance under FAA Order 8900.1 Volume 6, meaning the inspector can pull every work-order completed on a specific customer aircraft tail across the 2-year retention window with the signed §43.9 entries, the §43.7 RTS sign-offs, the §43.13 acceptable-data evidence, and the Form 8130-3 attachments reconciled. Continuum CMP holds the work-order completion data and the technician labor: that is the enterprise-database surface the DOM uses for shop capacity. Continuum CMP does NOT hold the §145.219 retention file structure organized per work-order + per customer tail with the signed attachments reconciled.
14 CFR §43.9: Maintenance Records
§43.9 requires every person performing maintenance, preventive maintenance, or alteration on an aircraft, airframe, engine, propeller, or component to make an entry in the maintenance record of the work performed: a description of the work, the date the work was completed, the name of the person performing the work, and (if the work was performed satisfactorily) the signature, certificate number, and kind of certificate held by the person approving the work for return to service (§43.7 RTS sign-off). The §43.9 entry must reference the methods, techniques, and practices acceptable to the Administrator. The signed §43.9 entry is the document evidence the PMI pulls during Part 145 surveillance (and the POI pulls during Part 135 surveillance for the contract maintenance arrangement under §135.411 + §135.443). Continuum CMP records the work-order completion date and the technician labor; it does NOT hold the signed §43.9 entry with the inspector’s certificate number, the §43.7 RTS sign-off, or the §145.219 retention file cross-reference. For a Part 135 operator, FileFlo holds the §43.9 evidence: the signed §43.9 entries and the §43.7 RTS sign-off and inspector signature, and produces the one-click §43.
14 CFR §43.13: Performance Rules (General)
§43.13 requires every person performing maintenance, preventive maintenance, or alteration on an aircraft, airframe, engine, propeller, or component to use the methods, techniques, and practices prescribed in the current manufacturer’s maintenance manual or Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) prepared by its manufacturer, or other methods, techniques, and practices acceptable to the Administrator. The §43.13 acceptable-data evidence is the binding link between the work performed and the OEM-published source for that work, and the PMI pulls the §43.13 evidence to verify that the specific revision and date of the OEM manual cited on every job was the current-revision source at the time the work was performed. Continuum CMP holds the OEM maintenance publications library in its enterprise maintenance publications module: that is the upstream tech-pub source the technician references. Continuum CMP does NOT hold the §43.13 compliance evidence record citing the specific OEM manual revision and date used on each signed §43.9 entry: that record links the §43.9 entry, the §43.7 RTS sign-off, and the §145.219 retention file together for the PMI. For a Part 135 operator, FileFlo holds the §43.13 evidence: the acceptable-data record citing the OEM manual revision and date, filed with the signed §43.9 entry, and produces the one-click §43.
14 CFR §91.417: Maintenance Records (Customer Aircraft Side)
§91.417 separately requires every owner or operator of a Part 91-operated aircraft to keep records containing the total time in service of the airframe, each engine, each propeller, and each rotor; the current status of life-limited parts; the time since last overhaul of items required to be overhauled on a specified time basis; the current inspection status of the aircraft (including the §91.409 annual + 100-hour inspections); the current status of applicable airworthiness directives (Part 39) including the method of compliance, the AD number, the revision date if applicable, and the signature of the person performing the work; and the records of each major alteration to the airframe and currently installed engines, propellers, and appliances. The §91.417 retention file lives with the customer aircraft, but the Part 145 repair station that performs the work must produce the §43.9 + §43.7 + §43.13 evidence the customer’s §91.417 file references. For Part 135 customer aircraft, §135.63 imposes a parallel recordkeeping obligation on the certificate holder. Continuum CMP holds the work-order data; it does NOT hold the §91.417 retention file structure organized per customer tail with the signed §43.9 + §43.7 + §43.13 + Part 39 attachments reconciled. For a Part 135 operator, FileFlo holds the §135.63 and §91.417 records per aircraft, files each signed §43.9 entry and §43.7 RTS sign-off to the aircraft, watches the §91.409 annual on a 12-calendar-month cycle, and builds an audit packet for the inspector. Civil-penalty exposure under 49 U.S.C. § 46301 runs up to $75,000 per violation for an operator that is not a small business concern (14 CFR 13.301, violations on or after December 30, 2024): a Part 145 surveillance event with §145.211 + §145.219 + §43.9 + §43.13 + §91.417 finding compound can escalate to a six-figure civil penalty exposure for the certificated repair station.
A one-time Setup vs. custom enterprise quote.
Aviation starts with the Audit-Ready Crew Records Setup; 16 or more aircraft, air medical and fractional operations are priced by written quote. Continuum / CAMP CMP prices on a custom enterprise quote model tiered by shop scope, work-order volume, parts inventory, technician seats, fleet scope, and accounting integration. The math escalates with every additional capability rating, technician seat, and multi-year contract escalator.
* Pricing range based on public sources and operator reports across Continuum / CAMP CMP enterprise installations. Continuum does not publish pricing; contact Continuum Applied Technology for an exact quote based on shop scope, work-order volume, technician seats, accounting integration tier, and contract term.
The pricing comparison is not apples-to-apples. Continuum / CAMP CMP is the enterprise maintenance + parts + accounting platform of record; FileFlo is the compliance document evidence binder. For a Part 135 operator, the right operating model is “Continuum CMP for the enterprise maintenance workflow + FileFlo for the §43.9 / §43.13 / §135.63 / §91.417 audit binder”, and FileFlo decouples the compliance layer from any future Continuum maintenance-platform migration decision.
Platform definition.
FileFlo is a compliance document intelligence platform built for Part 135 operators. It is not an enterprise maintenance, parts, or accounting system. Instead, it reads the signed compliance documents a Part 135 operator must be able to produce on demand: the signed §43.9 maintenance entries with inspector certificate numbers, the §43.7 return-to-service sign-offs, the §43.13 acceptable-data evidence citing the OEM manual revision used, the Form 8130-3 Authorized Release Certificates, and the §135.63 and §91.417 records per aircraft. It classifies each against its governing regulation, watches the §91.409 annual for each aircraft on a 12-calendar-month cycle, and builds an audit packet with an inspector link limited to one aircraft or one crew.
The distinction matters because Continuum / CAMP CMP is an enterprise maintenance management platform: it is optimized for work-order dispatch, technician labor capture, parts inventory, vendor purchase orders, and accounting GL integration, not for being the signed regulatory archive a PMI pulls. Continuum can tell you a work order completed and what labor and parts it consumed; it does not hold the §145.211 QCM document, version-track its revisions, hold the signed §43.9 entry and §43.7 sign-off, store the §43.13 acceptable-data evidence record, or structure the §145.219 retention file per work-order and per customer tail. FileFlo adds a compliance-evidence layer for the Part 135 operator without disturbing the shop-floor enterprise beneath it, and because FileFlo holds the signed records regardless of which work-order system runs underneath, it decouples the compliance binder from any future Continuum maintenance-platform migration decision.
Why an enterprise maintenance system isn't a compliance archive.
FAA Part 145 surveillance rules do not ask whether a work order was completed; they ask whether the signed record exists, cites the right acceptable data, and can be produced on demand. Under 14 CFR §145.211, a certificated repair station must prepare, keep current, and follow a Quality Control Manual acceptable to the Administrator, and a Principal Maintenance Inspector conducting surveillance under FAA Order 8900.1 Volume 6 will pull the current-revision QCM with its revision history and FAA-acknowledgment correspondence. Under 14 CFR §145.219, the station must retain all maintenance records (the §43.9 entries, the §43.7 return-to-service sign-offs, the Form 8130-3 Authorized Release Certificates, and the SDRs) for at least two years from return to service and make them available on request. Under 14 CFR §43.9 and §43.13, every entry must carry the inspector's signature and certificate number and cite the specific OEM manual revision and date used. An enterprise maintenance platform can dispatch every work order and track every labor hour and still leave the repair station exposed, because work-order software has no concept of "the signed binder the PMI will pull per CFR section."
For a Part 135 operator, this is the gap FileFlo closes. Rather than abandon the enterprise maintenance system that runs the shop floor (a migration that can run six figures and stall for years), the operator uploads the signed records and FileFlo applies a regulation-specific rule pack to them. Each document is mapped to the CFR section it satisfies, and a missing record is flagged: the signed §43.9 entry, the §43.13 evidence, the Form 8130-3 attachment, or the §135.63 records. When the inspector arrives, the audit packet carries each document's standing, with an inspector link limited to one aircraft or one crew. Civil-penalty exposure under 49 U.S.C. § 46301 reaches up to $75,000 per violation for an operator that is not a small business concern (14 CFR 13.301, violations on or after December 30, 2024), so a compounded §145.211 / §145.219 / §43.9 / §43.13 / §91.417 finding can escalate quickly for the certificated station.
The practical result is that a Part 135 operator keeps a single enterprise maintenance system (Continuum / CAMP CMP) while gaining the signed-record filing and the audit packet that a maintenance-management platform does not provide. FileFlo is the compliance evidence layer; Continuum remains the system that runs the shop floor and the back office.
Built by an operator, against the rules themselves.
Chad Griffith, Founder & CEO of FileFlo, built FileFlo's rule packs against the actual surveyor, inspector, and investigator protocols, not against a generic "compliance" abstraction. Each regulator's taxonomy maps documents to the exact CFR section that demands them, which is why FileFlo can sit alongside an enterprise maintenance platform like Continuum / CAMP CMP and still speak the language an FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector uses under 8900.1 Volume 6. FileFlo is built to complement the systems you already run: it holds the signed document evidence and never becomes another place your team has to dispatch work orders, manage parts, or post the GL.
Quick answers.
Last reviewed June 4, 2026.
What is Continuum Applied Technology, and where does it sit in the aviation compliance software landscape in 2026?
Continuum Applied Technology is the legacy enterprise maintenance + parts management + accounting integration platform best known to the aviation market for its CAMP CMP product line (Continuum Maintenance Program, historically deployed at Part 145 repair stations and Part 135 air carriers with significant maintenance volume). Following the 2022-2024 enterprise aviation consolidation wave that included CAMP Systems combining with Veryon (formerly Flightdocs / Traxxall), the Continuum / CAMP CMP customer base now sits in a specific post-merger niche: established Part 145 repair stations and Part 135 air carriers with multi-year enterprise installations of Continuum CMP for work-order management, parts inventory, AD compliance tracking, labor + cost accounting, and ERP-style integration to QuickBooks Enterprise or NetSuite. Continuum CMP is the enterprise maintenance management platform: work orders, parts inventory, technician labor tracking, vendor purchase orders, AD library, and the §43.13 acceptable-data integration to the OEM manual library. Continuum competes against CAMP Systems (the merged Veryon CMS product line), Veryon Tracking (formerly Flightdocs), Avantext eDoc, and the enterprise ERP-with-aviation-module category. Continuum / CAMP CMP is the maintenance + parts + accounting enterprise of record; for a Part 135 operator, FileFlo is the compliance document evidence layer that holds the signed §43.9 maintenance entries with the §43.7 RTS sign-offs, the §43.13 performance-rules compliance evidence citing the manual revision, and the §135.63 and §91.417 records per aircraft, and builds an audit packet with an inspector link limited to one aircraft or one crew.
How much does Continuum / CAMP CMP cost vs FileFlo?
Continuum Applied Technology / CAMP CMP prices on a custom enterprise quote model: Continuum does not publish pricing tiers, and every quote is sales-led based on the customer's shop scope (Part 145 repair station ratings + capability listing under §145.59 + §145.61), work-order volume (annual maintenance events tracked), parts inventory size (line items in the parts catalog), technician seat count (mechanic + inspector + work-order-administrator users), aircraft fleet scope (for Part 135 customers, number of tails + number of aircraft types), accounting integration tier (QuickBooks vs NetSuite vs custom ERP), and the multi-year contract term (typically 3-5 year enterprise agreements with annual escalators). Continuum publishes no pricing tiers and quotes every account through sales, so pricing varies by organization size and provider; request a current quote. The quote scales with shop scope, technician seat count, parts-catalog size, accounting-integration tier and contract term. The Continuum sales process includes a multi-week implementation engagement (data migration from legacy ERP, parts catalog import, work-order template configuration, accounting integration mapping) plus an annual professional services budget for ongoing customization. Aviation starts with the Audit-Ready Crew Records Setup; 16 or more aircraft, air medical and fractional operations are priced by written quote. The pricing comparison is NOT a substitution comparison. Continuum / CAMP CMP sells the enterprise maintenance + parts + accounting platform of record for the shop floor; FileFlo is the compliance document evidence layer a Part 135 operator produces for the inspector. For a Part 135 operator running Continuum, the right operating model is keep Continuum / CAMP CMP for the work-order + parts + accounting workflow that runs the shop floor every day AND add FileFlo for the signed §43.9 + §43.7 + §43.13 evidence and the §135.63 and §91.417 records per aircraft. Verify Continuum / CAMP CMP pricing directly during the Continuum sales process.
Does FileFlo replace the enterprise maintenance + parts + accounting platform Continuum CMP provides?
No, and the post-Veryon-merger Continuum / CAMP CMP niche is exactly where this distinction matters most. Continuum / CAMP CMP is the enterprise maintenance management platform where the Part 145 director of maintenance (DOM), the chief inspector, the parts manager, and the accounting controller run the shop-floor + back-office workflow every day: work-order creation + dispatch + technician assignment + labor + cost capture + parts pull + vendor purchase order + AD library cross-reference + customer invoice + QuickBooks or NetSuite GL posting. That maintenance-enterprise workflow is the daily shop-floor surface: it runs every hour as work orders open and close, it integrates with the accounting system the controller closes the month against, and it is the single pane of glass the DOM uses to manage shop capacity, technician utilization, parts turn, and customer billing. FileFlo does NOT attempt to replace that workflow. For a Part 135 operator, FileFlo is the destination for the completed compliance documents the work-order workflow produces: the signed §43.9 maintenance entry with the inspector's certificate number, the §43.7 RTS sign-off, the §43.13 performance-rules compliance evidence citing the OEM manual revision and date, the Form 8130-3 Authorized Release Certificate attachments for installed components, and the §135.63 and §91.417 records per aircraft. The combined operating model is: Continuum / CAMP CMP for the enterprise maintenance + parts + accounting platform that runs the shop floor + back office daily + FileFlo for the §43.9 / §43.13 / §135.63 / §91.417 compliance document evidence the inspector pulls during surveillance.
What does the 14 CFR §145.211 Quality Control Manual require, and what does the PMI pull during Part 145 surveillance under FAA Order 8900.1 Volume 6?
14 CFR §145.211 requires every Part 145 certificated repair station to prepare, keep current, and follow a Quality Control Manual (QCM) acceptable to the FAA Administrator. The QCM must contain the procedures for performing maintenance, preventive maintenance, and alterations on articles for which the repair station is rated; the §145.213 inspection of maintenance, preventive maintenance, or alterations performed; the §145.215 capability list amendment procedures; the §145.217 contract maintenance procedures (for work the repair station contracts to other Part 145 stations); the §145.219 recordkeeping procedures; the §145.221 Service Difficulty Report (SDR) procedures; the §145.223 FAA inspections + investigations cooperation procedures; the §145.205(b) compliance with §43.13 acceptable-data source procedures; the system of supervision and the system for ensuring the competency of personnel under §145.155; the procedures for revising the QCM whenever any procedure changes; and the procedures for ensuring the QCM is made available to all personnel performing maintenance under the repair station certificate. FAA Order 8900.1 Volume 6 governs PMI surveillance of Part 145 QCM compliance plus operations specifications (OpSpecs) review. Continuum / CAMP CMP holds the work-order data, the parts inventory data, the labor + cost data, and the accounting integration: it does not hold the §145.211 QCM document itself, it does not version-track QCM revisions, and it does not hold the FAA-acknowledgment correspondence chain confirming the QCM revision is acceptable to the Administrator. The Part 145 repair station that walks into PMI surveillance with Continuum-supplied work-order data but cannot produce the current-revision §145.211 QCM with version history, revision dates, and FAA-acknowledged revision letters is the repair station that picks up a §145.211 finding (and in repeat-finding cases the §145.55 certificate enforcement action under 49 U.S.C. §44709).
What do §145.219, §43.9, and §43.13 require of maintenance records, and what does FileFlo hold for a Part 135 operator?
14 CFR §145.219 requires every Part 145 repair station to keep all maintenance records (including the §43.9 entries, the §43.7 RTS sign-offs, the work order documentation, the inspector certifications, the Form 8130-3 Authorized Release Certificates for components, the customer aircraft tail-specific retention records, and the SDRs filed under §145.221) for at least 2 years from the date the article was approved for return to service, and to make those records available to the Administrator on request. 14 CFR §43.9 separately requires every person performing maintenance, preventive maintenance, or alteration to make an entry in the maintenance record describing the work, the date completed, the name of the person performing the work, and (if approved for return to service) the signature, certificate number, and kind of certificate held by the person approving the work. 14 CFR §43.13 separately requires every person performing maintenance, preventive maintenance, or alteration to use the methods, techniques, and practices prescribed in the current manufacturer's maintenance manual or Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA), typically the OEM manual revision Continuum / CAMP CMP holds in its maintenance publications library. Continuum holds the work-order completion date and the technician labor data: that is the enterprise-database surface the DOM uses for shop capacity and the controller uses for customer billing. Continuum does NOT hold the signed §43.9 entry with the inspector's certificate number, the §43.7 RTS sign-off, the §43.13 acceptable-data compliance evidence citing the specific OEM manual revision and date used, the §145.219 retention file organized per work-order + per customer tail, the Form 8130-3 attachments for installed components, or the §145.221 SDR cross-reference. The signed records are the document evidence the PMI pulls during Part 145 surveillance. The Part 145 repair station that has the Continuum-supplied work-order data but cannot produce the signed §43.9 + §43.7 + §43.13 evidence reconciled to the §145.219 retention file is the station that picks up a §145.219 finding (and in repeat-finding cases the §145.211 / §145.213 enforcement action). For a Part 135 operator, FileFlo holds the signed §43.9 + §43.7 entries, the §43.13 acceptable-data evidence with the OEM manual revision cited, the Form 8130-3 attachments, and the §135.63 and §91.417 records per aircraft, and builds an audit packet with an inspector link limited to one aircraft or one crew.
How does Continuum / CAMP CMP's post-Veryon-merger position affect the buyer decision in 2026, and where does FileFlo fit?
The 2022-2024 enterprise aviation maintenance software consolidation reshuffled the buyer landscape. CAMP Systems combined with Veryon (the parent company of Flightdocs and Traxxall) creating a single multi-product enterprise platform under the Veryon brand. Continuum Applied Technology remains a distinct company with its CMP product line, but a meaningful share of the legacy CAMP CMP installed base now sits in a defined niche: established Part 145 repair stations and Part 135 air carriers with multi-year Continuum CMP enterprise installations that pre-date the Veryon merger, that have heavy customization investment (accounting integration, parts catalog migration, work-order templates), and that face a strategic decision in 2026-2028 about whether to migrate to the merged Veryon platform, stay on Continuum CMP, or migrate to a different enterprise maintenance platform. The strategic decision is hard because Continuum CMP enterprise migration is multi-month and professional-services heavy, and the data-migration line item is quoted per account rather than published. Most Continuum customers in this niche will defer the maintenance-platform migration decision through 2027 or beyond while still facing every FAA PMI surveillance event in the interim. The §145.211 / §145.219 / §43.9 / §43.13 compliance evidence binder gap is the same regardless of which enterprise maintenance platform sits underneath. For a Part 135 operator, FileFlo solves the compliance evidence layer independent of whether the operator ultimately stays on Continuum, migrates to the merged Veryon, or moves to a different enterprise platform. The Part 135 operator who adds FileFlo is decoupling the compliance document evidence binder from the maintenance-platform migration decision: FileFlo holds the signed maintenance records and the §135.63 records regardless of which work-order system runs underneath. That decoupling is a meaningful risk-reduction position for the Continuum customer base that has not yet made a maintenance-platform migration decision.
Keep Continuum CMP. Add the audit packet.
For a Part 135 operator, FileFlo files the signed §43.9 records and builds the audit packet, decoupled from any future Continuum maintenance-platform migration decision. Start with your crew records. FileFlo emails your Crew Records Audit Report within 7 days of your uploads, or the $1,500 comes back. The 7 days start once FileFlo has one pilot's name and one record it can read.
Includes 30 days of FileFlo. Then $150 per aircraft per month for 1 to 15 aircraft, if you continue at day 30; nothing is charged if you do not. 16 or more aircraft, air medical and fractional operations: by written quote. Request an aviation quote.
