Business Continuity Management Program

Aviation is a dynamic industry. Innovation and rethinks are the norm. On the other hand, Covid 19 has threatened the very survival of Aviation. The warning signs preceded the pandemic.

A Safety Management System (SMS) is a framework based on FAA/ICAO recommendations to anticipate and address safety issues before they lead to an accident. It measures risk across the enterprise and applies rules based on previous and predicted behaviour to improve safety and efficiency.

A shift that normally would have required years, has been brought about in a matter of months with the onslaught of the Covid19 pandemic. While this has been achieved, resources have been stretched and strained beyond limits and as many of these processes become permanent, resilience is of utmost importance.

The Aviation Industry has a long history of pioneering technology and has the most mature systems in place and a great safety record. However, with time, many peripheral but critical software solutions have come up and the application suite now resembles a patchwork that is becoming increasingly more difficult to manage and may be in imminent danger of becoming obsolete.

When we wrote our first line of code, we had a clear goal of building a world-class emergency and crisis management solution. This came from our experience in developing and running a collaboration and crisis platform for a Fortune 15 company with a user base of over 1,00,000 employees.

With software being critical to survival, most CEOs will transform legacy IT departments to a Digital Division that will be the center of the enterprise. This new digital business integrated command centre would conceive and launch disruptive products that will redefine the organisation across the full ecosystem , adopting agile practices and new technology to build a new generation of mission critical business applications.
