OPERATIONS CONTROL
Core & Add-on Systems Brief Description
ADD-ON MODULES
The AIMS System can easily be expanded by adding the more task specific functionality provided by the Add-on Systems. These fully integrable additions are capable of building a variety of corporate / departmental AIMS structures to suit your airline requirements.
Operations Control - CORE SYSTEM
Aircraft Movement Control
Maximizes on time performance through optimization of aircraft utilization. Automatic re-allocation and optimization of individual aircraft in conformity with/and the updating of maintenance plans.
Has scrollable displays from six hours to one month for actual or projected operations. Automatic update and problem resolution following user-updated or, optionally, by receipt of longer period SITA aircraft movement messages via SITATEX.
Automatically displays impending/actual aircraft restrictions and crew duty violations following input of schedule variations or receipt of delays messages.
Facilitates rapid rescheduling of aircraft and crews to resolve delays of minimize their cumulative effect and cost of the overall operation.
Over-ride facilities permit user to evaluate alternative problem solutions.
(System will warn user of conflicting or illegal aircraft / crew selections in manual mode, but authorized user can still override if required.
