Our Solution
The advent of handheld and smartphone devices has presented airlines with new opportunities to gather operational information and push it to the airline systems quickly. Airlines need to urgently streamline their internal processes and manage their paper-based forms by moving to the electronic systems.
Today airlines fill around 200+ forms in their day-to-day operations with around 15+ forms pre-flight. The ability to access, view, complete, and submit electronic forms via a smartphone or a tablet has the potential to increase the productivity of the airline and its crew members—diminishing the need for manual processing of essential forms.
Coforge, with more than two decades of experience working with 100-plus active clients including more than 50 airlines globally, can help transform your operations. Airlines can use our electronic form platform to enable their departments to create, manage, publish, and use forms in an electronic format on desktop and mobile devices. The forms are developed using HTML5 and provide integration with backend airline systems and databases. Our solution implements product workflow management and provides mobile and offline access to users.
Our solution provides:
- Configurable digital forms—operational forms, event report, work order/task forms, job card, passenger feedback, safety forms, training forms, voyage reports, airport entry forms, simulator forms, expense claim, cabin logs, door operation checklist
- Prefilled reference data for faster turnaround time
- Automated workflows
- Notifications and events based on data entered in forms
