The Stage of Tomorrow Starts Today
The volatility surrounding the aviation industry has been marked with near unprecedented fluctuations. The impact of the pandemic was the first tremor, leading to a cascade of factors which have shaken the vertical to its very core. The return to air travel numbers that speak to post pandemic revenues has already begun, requiring immediate and effective measures to be taken in order to capitalize on the incoming tide of opportunity. The questions hang – Where is the market going? What decisions need to be made in order to align with the existing conditions? What are the missing elements necessary to meet and overcome the current challenges?
Thankfully, the pressure levied on most companies was initially mitigated by governmental subsidies. The massive layoffs and financial drain from maintaining large mixed fleets required capital injections on scale only governments could realize. And still, organizations continue to flounder in the primordial soup of uncertainty that remains facing them. One resonating concept has prevailed amongst speculations regarding a return to success. Aviation requires better usage of information and technology. Companies need to take the first steps toward more efficient technical publications solutions, an effective method in how data is shared, enriched and utilized.
Yesterday’s Predictions….Todays Actions
According to studies by IDC, on the G2000 (Forbes Top 2000 publicly traded companies),by 2023, 40% of companies will overhaul their IT practices, basing them not on IT requirements, but on business focussed outcomes.80% of these companies will also be utilizing cloud based infrastructures to better manage and optimize data. Organizations are beginning to realize the power of implementing technology that assists all stakeholders in executing tasks from start to finish. Technical publications comprise a massive amount of the required standardized data necessary to make companies achieve goals.Looking at the statistics, it would seem the path of least resistance (and the way to success) is implementing an IETM /IETP based solution, such as NIVOMAX.
The opportunity to collect and study performance metrics is of growing pertinence and hence , invaluable. Information of this nature can be captured through an IETM / IETP, providing an empirical basis to make change management easier. Combined with advanced data security and granular access control, information can remain safe while simultaneously boosting collaboration and procedural development. These applications fill the existing void, and can be accessed 24/7 via web, desktop, or mobile devices.Aviation MROs , fleet operators, and OEMs all could benefit greatly from the digitalization of their technical publications technology, as it represents an obvious opportunity to deploy the strategies necessary to deal with present issues such as labor shortages and training, supply chain, new materials and operational procedures and more.
The future seems to hold caveats that imply that data will be a crucial element in other scenarios which concern aviation companies. Forbes’ study also cites that by 2025, 80% of companies will revamp their data governance strategies to utilize a more autonomic process. The results include greatly reduced risk, such as in security , and far better experiences for clients and internal staff alike. For example, safety and maintenance requirements, mitigated by automated alerts to maintain up to date procedural information, will reduce the likelihood of errors and negative customer impact. Technical publications applications such as NIVOMAX have the technology to automatically alert users to the presence of new information required for specific tasks (i.e. information from authority bodies such as EASA, FAA and TCAA)
Moving deeper, it is also noted that in the near future, an organization’s value will become more heavily reliant on its attention to data control and utilization in areas such as finance. The worth of a corporate entity will be reviewed with these factors being held as major factors affecting their efficiency and true capital worth. It would serve all aviation companies going forward to be in a position to have these policies in place to maintain their financial solvency and perceived value to partners, prospective employees and clients, particularly in the post pandemic uncertainty of today’s market.
Technical publications technology can provide holistic benefits organizationally, reaching from end to end in its ability to enhance not only corporate value, but also the capabilities of an enterprise to streamline, improve, and teach its processes and stakeholders capabilities in executing critical tasks. Technical publications suites such as NIVOMAX possess tools such as annotation features for manuals and graphics that can bring new efficiencies to the aviation vertical through their implementation and usage
The Final Approach
Currently, aviation is still rallying against a host of challenges on the path to stable revenues. In saying this, we must acknowledge that the sector is still in a state of flux, with uncertainties such as sustainability threatening to force companies to adapt further. Technologies involving technical publications are the basic building block of the solution, a required element in order to execute almost any strategy addressing current problems. It stands to reason that information sharing technology would be an integral piece of the solution, as aviation requires a massive amount of data to change hands with each task that needs to be executed. Overall, the predictions rendered to us in late 2021 seem to be fairly on track, and more importantly, closing in quite fast. Technical Publications technology is available and in the best interest of forward minded organizations.
To summarize, the predictions surrounding aviation technology lean toward a universal adoption of IETM /IETP cloud driven solutions. The future of the sector depends on how quickly organizations will adopt a method to achieve the flexibility required to meet our current challenges. Best to be ready.
