German term or phrase: Auftragnehmer-Werk
From a maintenance agreement involving helicopters:

Der Auftragnehmer stellt in der Regel für Werkstattflüge im Auftragnehmer-Werk den Piloten und verpflichtet sich, die Flugstunden für Werkstattflüge auf den notwendigen Umfang zu beschränken.

It seems to only make sense if this is translated "...work product," although the Contractor is not providing a new product, but rather only maintenance, servicing and inspection services.

Thanks.
