Will Transform The Carrier's Information Management Processes
Global communications company Viasat has announced that Japan Airlines (JAL) has deployed Viasat's Aerodocs document management system to support the airline's safety and compliance objectives.
Aerodocs is an aviation-grade document management solution that is providing JAL with complete control over the editing, distribution and viewing of original equipment manufacturer documentation, in addition to critical flight reference handbooks, maintenance manuals and operational manuals.
Recently named the most on-time mainline airline in 2018 in the Asia-Pacific region by FlightGlobal, JAL continues to invest in solutions to further enhance their award-winning operations.
"We continue to invest in the enhancement of aircraft operational safety, as it is a top priority. Viasat Aerodocs allows us to effectively organize and manage documents to further enhance aircraft safety while helping us meet critical regulatory and compliance requirements," said Captain Tatsuo Mori, vice president and chief pilot, Flight Operation Department, Japan Airlines. He added "the system's intuitive approach and unique capabilities ensures that critical information is maintained in the right place and is accessible at all times. Having the ability to manage workflows in a more integrated manner, along with tracking read and unread documents, delivers significant value in helping us enhance our safety. While we evaluated a number of different solutions, we agreed that the Viasat Aerodocs product delivered the most comprehensive offering to transform our information management strategy."
"Our airline partners around the globe are investing in new technologies that will expand their digital transformation strategies in order to increase collaboration, improve operations and help make more informed, data-driven decisions," said Dave Elliott, managing director, Viasat Ireland. "The Aerodocs system uses information intelligence to enable digital transformation in air operations, helping airlines, like JAL, to strike a balance between meeting safety and compliance needs and operational efficiencies that contribute to an improved passenger experience."
