The highly uncertain and dynamic aviation industry demands our decision-making techniques constantly evolve and adapt to the ever changing conditions.  Developing analytics driven methods and leveraging advanced techniques offers improvements in maintenance operations efficiency, increased resiliency, higher aircraft reliability, and improved operations performance.

Joint Sessions with the Airline Operations Study Group

This year’s conference is being organized once again in conjunction with the AGIFORS Airline Operations study group to promote a vibrant dialog on topics that touch these business areas. 

Topics

The theme of this year's conference is "Navigating Through Disruptions with Analytics," which highlights the pivotal role of analytics in addressing the challenges posed by political, natural, and other disruptions.

  • Predictive maintenance
  • Maintenance planning and (production) scheduling
  • Maintenance repair recommendation engines
  • Aircraft reliability
  • Fleet performance
  • Operational efficiency
  • Asset management
  • Spare part demand forecasting
  • Spare parts and inventory planning
