• Aviation Asset Records modernizes the way
cargo operator manages and streamlines aircraft records and asset
documentation
• Dashboards provide Ameriflight’s maintenance
records data to track business operations decision
effectiveness
GE Digital today announced that Dallas-based Ameriflight, the
nation’s largest Part 135 cargo airline, has chosen the company’s
Aviation Asset Records software solution to make better informed
decisions about its flight operations. The solution features an
automated dashboard that provides a visual representation of
historical data from Ameriflight’s maintenance records operation
that helps the company make actionable decisions.
Aviation Asset Records, a cloud-based solution, allows operators
to digitize, index, and archive maintenance records of equipment in
use. Records related to individual aircraft can then be connected
so the operator has data related to both internal and external
operations and documentation between airline and lessor.
Maintenance records can then be matched to the relevant Maintenance
& Engineering system (M&E).
The GE Digital Aviation Software Professional Services team
worked closely with the Ameriflight team to translate their needs,
identify available data, and transform it into actionable
information in a custom Microsoft Power BI dashboard based on
Ameriflight’s Maintenance Records operation. The team defined a
digital path together to transform more data into information for
better decision making, continuous improvement, and training. Power
BI is a business analytics service from Microsoft that provides
interactive visualizations and business intelligence capabilities
with a simple interface to create reports and dashboards.
As a critical part of the UPS, FedEx, and DHL supply chains,
Ameriflight has grown from a single aircraft to the largest Part
135 cargo airline in the U.S. touting a fleet size of more than 150
aircraft.
“Our goal with this solution is to embrace emerging technologies
to streamline our data collection and analysis so we can achieve
visibility into real-time metrics,” said Cliff Hansen,
Ameriflight’s Director of Quality. “The GE Digital team partnered
with us to set our business objectives and make those objectives
achievable by using tangible data and performance monitoring.”
Aviation Asset Records broaden the company’s Risk Management
Solutions (RMS). By leveraging accurate data to enable downstream
analytics, operators are able to improve operations and make
records more easily accessible, searchable, and transferable.
“Given all of the challenges and changes our industry is facing
we are seeing incredible innovation coming from perhaps the most
untapped asset in Aviation, our data,” said Andrew Coleman, General
Manager of GE Digital’s Aviation Software business. “Transparent,
data-driven insights will be key to not only returning the industry
to safe flight, but also enabling airlines like Ameriflight to
operate more efficiently and sustainably.”
