Turkish Airlines adopts CAE next-generation Unified Task Board and Crew Management solutions

Turkish Airlines has signed a long-term agreement to implement CAE next-generation Crew Management product and the Unified Task Board – a new situational awareness and disruption management solution for airline operations control centres. In addition to Crew Management and Unified Task Board, Turkish Airlines is a longstanding user of CAE's Flight Plan Management product.

Designed from the ground up and in close alignment with airline partners, the Unified Task Board provides situational awareness of the operation across the OCC. It optimizes disruption and recovery management by integrating data from multiple systems into a single view to support decision-making. The platform auto-calculates disruption scenarios for common and complex day-of-operations issues in real time and allows users to sort, filter, and evaluate solution trade-offs to identify the most beneficial resolution pathway.

Pascal Grenier, CAE's Division President of Flight Solutions commented: "With the integration of CAE's Flight Plan Management, Crew Management and Unified Task Board solutions, Turkish Airlines is equipping its team to enhance operations and maximize overall performance. The Crew Management platform aims to boost crew productivity, optimize efficiency and resolve disruptions when time is of the essence. Additionally, the Unified Task Board will enable Turkish Airlines to efficiently manage operational disruptions by offering a comprehensive, real-time view of alerts, contextual details, and system-generated recovery scenarios in a single interface, enabling the Crew Management teams to take more informed decisions faster.”

Ahmet Acar, Senior Vice President of crew Planning at Turkish Airlines said: "We are committed to maintaining our competitive edge and delivering the high-quality travel experience our guests rely on with Turkish Airlines. To achieve this, we continuously seek innovative solutions to enhance our operations. Building on the success of CAE's Flight Management software, we are excited to move forward with the integration of the company's Crew Management software and Unified Task Board. We are confident these solutions will increase efficiencies, reduce disruptions for our guests, allow faster disruption recovery, and create an even better working environment for our crew."

Using data from the suite of products, Unified Task Board enhances situational awareness and breaks down silos to enable users to work collaboratively and make proactive informed decisions. CAE's Flight Operations Solutions allow airlines to make faster decisions and push real-time changes. Each software package offers improved efficiencies through automated workflows and intuitive, user-friendly interfaces,  seamlessly integrating with other service-oriented architecture.
