Implementing Pilot Scheduling V2 for Aviation Efficiency

Location: Toronto, Canada

Industry: Aviation

Project Overview

We helped our client revamp their existing pilot scheduling system. The project, dubbed Pilot Scheduling V2, aimed to address several critical challenges in the aviation industry. The project was not just a software upgrade; it was a comprehensive solution tailored to meet the specific needs of the aviation sector.

Challenges

Our client’s primary challenge was to develop a system that could:

  • Streamlining the complex process of scheduling pilots' duties while ensuring optimal efficiency.
  • Automatically validate compliance with Transport Canada's aviation regulations to avoid penalties and ensure safety.
  • Providing robust reporting tools and sandboxing environments for testing and development without affecting live operations.
  • Allowing for managing different software versions to facilitate updates and integration without disrupting service.

Solutions

The solutions implemented in Pilot Scheduling V2 included:

  • Compliance Validation: Automated checks to ensure all pilot scheduling adheres to Canadian government aviation rules.
  • Sandboxing: A safe environment for testing new features without impacting live operations.
  • Schedule Versioning: Efficient management of software versions for seamless updates and integration.
  • Reporting: Advanced reporting capabilities for better insight and decision-making.
  • Third-party Integration: Integration with Starlink Aviation and RAS Remote maintenance for enhanced operational capabilities.

Results

  • 40% Reduction in Scheduling Errors: A remarkable decrease in scheduling mistakes, leading to more efficient operations.
  • Enhanced Compliance: Strengthened adherence to Transport Canada regulations, mitigating the risk of penalties.
  • Operational Efficiency: Streamlined scheduling and compliance processes have significantly improved operational efficiency for Canadian airlines.

Tech Stack

  • Frontend: ReactJS with Redux for state management.
  • Backend: Golang for its fast compile times and efficient backend operations.
  • Database: PostgreSQL for reliable data storage.
  • Design Framework: Ant Design for a sleek and user-friendly interface.
  • Infrastructure: Google Cloud Console for robust cloud hosting and management.
  • CI/CD Deployments: Automated deployment processes for continuous integration and delivery.
