In the second article of ABN’s series on digital transformation, Oleksandr Plyska, VP at Sigma Software Group, highlights how aviation is leveraging data to enhance operational efficiency. Following the focus on improved passenger journeys, this article delves into the behind-the-scenes impact of AI, IoT, and smart data practices. Key applications include predictive maintenance, fuel optimization, and automated ground handling, essential for safety, efficiency, and sustainability. Despite 97% of airlines adopting AI, around 60% of projects falter due to poor data quality. Successful examples, such as Lufthansa’s water predictions and easyJet’s demand forecasting, illustrate the benefits of smart data practices. Southwest Airlines has innovated with predictive models for fuel consumption, while Delta Airlines has reduced unscheduled maintenance through AI. Sigma Software is also optimizing airport operations with automated systems. The true transformation lies in rethinking data collection and sharing. In the next article, the impact of legacy technology on aviation will be explored. Stay tuned for more insights.
