‘Digitalized Flight Operations through AeroOps (Tech Crew VR) and CabinOps (CCVR – Cabin Crew VR)’ was the entry forwarded by SriLankan Airlines, which mainly highlighted the operational transformation achieved onboard with the automation of Voyage Report processes related to both Tech and Cabin Crew members. This enabled productivity and efficiency in the operations while streamlining the back-office support services for improved user and passenger experience.

Digitalizing the flight crew Voyage Report (VR) capturing process; safety details capturing and analysis process, workflow configurations and providing comprehensive management information for decision making in terms of safety, regulatory and operational aspects are the main benefits. Regulatory information capturing, sharing, and storing electronically in secure and reliable form has aligned this system with compliance requirements. A strategic decision was taken to develop a solution with in-house software engineering resources who possess expert knowledge in airline domain, systems integration & mobile app development. Through this initiative the airline has saved 2M USD cash outflow.
