On Time Performance and Delay Impact
avialytics’ On-Time-Performance / Delay Impact Management (OTP-DIM) solution allows operators to predict and control any and all aviation-scheduling situations that may arise. It visualizes the impact of a potential delay and aids economic decisions regarding additional fuel costs and/or the acceptance of a delay to serve a greater good.
avialytics’ A.I.R. gives your airline the possibility to manage planned and unplanned delays and defines handling in OTP reporting. Furthermore, data gathered about the reasons of delays (ground handling, technical issues, weather) help to understand and improve your operations. The avialytics’ OTP-solution does not just consider single flight events for reporting and analysis. It enables a complete current and historic view on the airline operations.
Benefits
Scheduling and delay management
Manage planned and unplanned delays in a best practice process, allowing stations to submit delay requests directly towards decision markers.
Proactive delay decisions
Data gathered about reasons of delays (ground handling, technical issues, weather) help to understand and manage your operations.
Time and resource savings
Central data presentation allows a focus on actual decision making instead of information gathering and enables quick decisions.
Visibility of recurring issues
Having all delays and their reasons in a central overview allows to recognize common patterns.
Root cause analysis
Assignment of root causes to each delay allows to analyze and learn from each delay occurence.
Simplified reaction process
Streamlining and organizing delay impact management enables operational staff to decide and act in a standardized process.
How it works
Delay Request
- Delay Request
- Request to delay a flight for a certain amount of time due to a specific reason
- Automatic operator notification of the request
- Delay Request Handling
- Approve, reject and adjust delay requests based on real-time dependency information
- Management of actions necessary in case of a delay
- E-mail notifications are automatically generated
- The delay request status is displayed in the InfoBOX flight overview
- Delay Refinement: Standard delay-information framework will be enhanced with details like:
- Which flight caused a reactionary delay on an individual flight
- Which flights will be affected by the delay of the actual flight
- Refinement of the delay causes and assignment of responsibilities
- Creation of follow-up actions
Robotic Assistant
- Root Cause Analytics and Learning Opportunities
- Flight and non-flight related root causes can be assigned to delays, along with the durations thereof.
- Gross and net delay times are calculated along with recovery efforts based on minimum turnaround times to identify real performance and critical paths.
- Recovery & Best Practice Workflow can be initiated and assigned to a specific person in the organization to track progress and ensure lessons learned.
- A.I.R. Data Distribution to Gross and Net Reporting Tools
Benchmark functions include:
- Flight Statistics
- Define and prioritize specific information about how a flight is considered.
- Each flight can be excluded from OTP or included as not delayed (= cleared). Cancellation(s) can also be set with reason as well as Full and Partial Service Failures (FSF/PSF).
- OTP Reporting
- Review the list of delays occurring within a given week, as well as the reasons, duration, and PSF-/FSF-/AdHoc-flags of each event.
- Service Failure Events & Flight Changes
- Delayed flights will be grouped by category and listed alongside their service failure threshold, reason, and ancillary comment information.
- Decision Support
- Data mining algorithms to identify and cluster delay causes and context.
