Ramco to provide engineering software to Taiwanese airlines
Ramco Systems, the global aviation software provider on clouds, mobiles and tablets, on Tuesday announced that it has signed an agreement with Taiwan-based Far Eastern Air Transport (FAT) to automate its carrier’s maintenance and engineering operations. As part of the agreement, the Taiwanese airline will install Ramco Aviation Suite V5.7 software, which will enable the company track aircraft components more effectively while minimizing paper work and human error. The software comes with advanced reporting and analytics, as well as human resource modules to facilitate employee training and certification. Currently, the Taipai-based FAT’s maintenance and engineering operations are built on legacy systems which have limited functionality and complex paper-based procedure. “As we expand into newer markets, managing our growing fleet on a legacy application was becoming tedious and resource intensive. With Ramco, we have moved into sophisticated end-to-end software for automation of our maintenance and engineering functions to streamline the various aspects of our business,” said Huang Sung Cheng, President, Far Eastern Air Transport. “The deal with Far Eastern Air Transport underscores our commitment to developing a holistic, user-friendly solution that will help airlines worldwide be more productive. With a presence in Taiwan, we expect to make further inroads into the Greater China market,” said Virender Aggrawal, CEO, Ramco Systems. Ramco has been providing software solutions to several large airlines including Emirates, Malaysia Airlines, Columbia Helicopters, Petroleum Helicopters, and five of the top heli-operators in the world.
