Indian aviation is projected to grow 120% by 2035. This number will only be possible if the correct investments are made in infrastructure. This data makes India one of the fastest-growing markets in the world. But such rapid expansion never comes without problems. Current infrastructure is not fit to meet demand with airports and services being overwhelmed leading to congestion, delays, and operational inefficiencies. The success of the sector is closely tied to the development of broader and surrounding infrastructure. There are 3 areas that will need to be improved if India is to realise its true potential. 1. 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗶𝗿𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗿𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 Over the last decade, India has doubled its number of airports, yet existing facilities are still under pressure. The government has set targets to increase the number of operational airports to 300 by 2047. Beyond increasing capacity, there is a need for investments in air traffic management and ground services. Enhanced air traffic control can mitigate delays and improve safety as air traffic volumes grow. Additionally, modernising ground services like baggage handling and refueling will be essential to maintain operational efficiency as the industry scales. 2. 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗟𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 The Indian government has been proactive in it’s support. Domestic initiatives like the UDAN scheme have boosted regional air connectivity by subsidising airfares on specific routes, making air travel more affordable. improving access to remote regions and promoting balanced regional growth. However, many remote areas remain underserved due to limited connectivity. The current Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) policy has attracted global investment, particularly benefiting non-resident Indians. To ensure sustainable growth, it's crucial to manage this investment carefully, balancing foreign ownership with local control. For India to realize its full potential, government policies must align with global standards and create a more competitive environment for airlines 3. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗿𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 Aviation infrastructure is interconnected with others like energy supply, transportation networks, and digital systems. Reliable power is vital for airports and air traffic control and uninterrupted operations. Efficient road and rail links to airports reduce congestion and enhance access. a strategic approach to development is necessary. The potential is vast, but growth is never guaranteed. The nation's ability to expand its capacity while maintaining efficiency and balancing foreign ownership with local control will determine whether it can fully realise its potential. And take its place as a global aviation superpower. The future looks bright. #india #aviation #indianaviation #growth #aviationindustry

There are 3 pieces of Information every SMS System needs: 1. Who 2. What 3. When Over the past few months, we’ve developed a robust SMS system tailored to the aviation industry. Through our market research, three things have become clear... 𝐀𝐧 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐒𝐌𝐒 𝐬𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦 𝐢𝐬 𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐨 - The safety of an operation - The efficiency of an operation - The establishment of a healthy safety culture. The SMS Framework ensures protection of both individuals (crew, passengers, and the public) and assets (aircrafts + associated items). In designing a software system that promotes both practical and cultural goals it was important to get clear on the basic foundations. We found three areas of data that come up again and again: - Who? - What? - When? The main function of an SMS is to identify hazards, assess risk and mitigate these risks to as low as reasonably possible (ALARP), to prevent incidents/accidents. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝟑 𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐩𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐩𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐌𝐒. 𝗪𝗛𝗢: Identifying the "Who" ensures accountability within the organisation. This promotes a culture of ownership. individuals are held accountable. From the initial reporting and handling (input) to the responsibility of actions (output), an operation and its people must be aware of 'Who' is accountable. WHAT: Determining the "What" provides clarity on the specific actions or tasks that need to be performed. From identification of a hazard, clear instructions can prevent misunderstandings and ensure that everyone involved understands their responsibilities. Depicting what happened (or may happen in future), what has been done and what needs to be done is important. A clear 'What' helps to maintain a high quality of recordkeeping making it easy for proactive measures to be taken. WHEN: The "When" sets deadlines and timelines for completing actions. It addresses safety-related issues and prevents potential hazards or mitigating risks before they escalate. While this contributes to efficiency, the 'When' more importantly determines the prioritisation of safety-related activities alongside the effective allocation of resources. As the market has seen, SMS systems have the potential to be very complex, often putting layers upon layers of workflows into the process. By demanding these 3 pieces of information at each stage of the safety process you can cut away the complications and make your organisation safer. Have you experienced similar issues in your operations? #aviation #aviationindustry #safety #SMS #safetymanagement

User experience is important in cockpit-based solutions. Our e-Techlog was designed with this in mind: Integrating new technologies in aviation is always challenging. Technology has always made flying safer, but high safety standards make it (justifiably) difficult for new technologies to make it into the cockpit. 𝐏𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐭𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐬𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞, 𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬! 1. New systems have to be trained in. 2. They need to be effective. 3. They need to be efficient. 4. They need to be safe. The design process for our e-Techlog solution involved extensive interviews and feedback loops with pilots and end users. The goal was to get real-life feedback and design an interface to simplify the workload. The app helps to decrease the workload in several ways - Data can be pulled from other systems and pre-populated in the app - Repetitive data entry is eliminated - Calculations are done automatically Flexibility is another feature that has been built into our application from the start. We understand that each operator has unique processes and workflows. Our user interface and modular system are highly customisable. This allows us to enhance your current processes rather than replace them. During the trial phase, our team works closely with our clients to ensure that the app has been configured to meet their specific needs. #aviation #aviationindustry #digitalaviation #software
