In Managing Engine Fleet Costs:
Managing engine fleet costs and maintenance planning is complex and ever-changing. While many airlines develop detailed cost management plans, these plans often depend on assumptions and predicted schedules that can quickly fall out of sync with real-world conditions.
Unpredictable factors, like fleet diversity or varying maintenance needs, often lead to unanticipated expenses and inefficiencies.
Optima is designed to solve these issues, helping airlines to:
Adaptive Planning Based on Real-World Conditions
Optima continuously adjusts to evolving conditions, generating optimised, achievable maintenance plans that can be refreshed as real-life constraints shift.
Real-Time Digital Twin for Comprehensive Insight
Optima’s digital twin integrates engineering, fleet management, and financial outlook, enabling a holistic view of operational constraints, costs, contract terms, and practical needs.
“Optima creates a digital environment that thinks like a powerplant manager, a head of fleet, and a finance director collectively”
Collaborative Deployment
Optima focuses on building close relationships with key teams to ensure rapid implementation and smooth operation.
“Our approach to deploying Optima is focused on sharing critical insights between engineering, fleet management, and finance, we work closely with those teams to get the environment up and running swiftly.”
