Akasa Air chooses AMOS MRO software solution

Akasa Air chooses AMOS MRO software solution.
Akasa Air has 72 Boeing 737 MAX on order and plans to have completed the inductions of the ordered aircraft by 2022.

AMOS initially supports Akasa Air with the objective of a timely go-live and, in a second phase, to increase the usage of the software functionalities and the automation of the processes.

Akasa Air, an Indian low-cost airline has selected AMOS, a comprehensive, fully-integrated MRO software solution for the airlines’ operations. The implementation of the software has been completed after just three months of project work with a successful go-live – on time with the operational start of their first B737 MAX.

Akasa Air relies on Swiss-AS’ cloud hosting service. The AMOS cloud hosting package, combined with AOS (management of application and database server), provides the customer with a fully cloud-hosted AMOS environment and ideal operating conditions to benefit from the full potential of AMOS. This option relieves Akasa Air of the need to operate a technical infrastructure on-premise and provides an attractive and cost-effective alternative – being the perfect setup for a start-up airline.

“With AMOS, Akasa Air has chosen a scalable software that has proven to be the right choice many times when it comes to supporting airlines from start-up status to a mature airline coming along with a significant fleet increase. We are proud to further intensify our AMOS footprint in India. Welcome to the AMOS Community, Akasa Air!”, states Fabiano Faccoli, CEO of Swiss-AS.

AMOS with a strong footprint in India

While searching the market for an MRO software solution that would meet their requirements Akasa Air had two major criteria to be considered:

  • Start of commercial operation was planned for summer 2022 and the new software needed to support the airworthiness management of the fleet.
  • The start-up has 72 Boeing 737 MAX on order and plans to have completed the inductions of the ordered aircraft by 2027, being the reason why the desired software must be scalable and capable to support fleet growth without adding complexity.

Due to the said two reasons, Akasa Air was looking for a partner who could develop a strategy tailored to the airline, with the objective to initially support a timely go-live and, in a second phase, to increase the usage of the software functionalities and the automation of the processes.

The timely operational commencement of AMOS was possible due to:

  • As a start-up company with brand-new aircraft, only minor data transfer is required, a process that is often the deciding factor of the project duration and
  • The broad AMOS experience of the project team.
