Closed Loop ADVANTAGE
|
There are some unexplored times ahead for the industry. A few months ago, the problem
was unprecedented growth forecasts driving scarcity, delay and inefficiency. Now,
its COVID-19.
For Boards and senior management, a clear, holistic industry perspective is more crucial
than ever before.
Airline projects used to be simpler. They typically fell wholly within departmental
boundaries, so administration required minimum participation from senior airline management.
However, the organisational structure of airlines also contributed significantly to
failure. Now, keeping the industry moving will require different thinking and capability.
Organisationally extensive strategies and the skilled implementation and execution
of a range of new requirements is crucial for airlines and industry as emergence from
the COVID-19 collapse gains momentum. There are opportunities in the virus meltdown,
and essential programs like digitisation and a raft of other industry-wide necessities
have not disappeared. Capturing the potential and building the necessary outcomes
will test even the most prominent airlines.

Finding the opportunities in the crisis, setting re-start strategies and assuring
the necessary projects remain aligned, eliminating duplication and ensuring integration
with the broader industry environment is a strategic level undertaking. Closed Loop
can help the Boards, and Senior Management of Airlines navigate the path. |
Specifically designed to assist and assure such strategic level programs, Closed Loop
Advantage guides in developing an overarching architecture that realigns the organisation
along boundaries of activity rather than departmentally, then includes guidance about
keeping it relevant, accurate and comprehensive. We look across the airline, across
multiple airlines, across the industry, regulators, trends, technology and other metrics
at our disposal. We don't take the responsibility away from the senior airline management,
however, as a trusted resource, we minimise the amount of direct involvement required
and provide confidence in the decisions crucial to survival and readiness.

What Does Advantage Do?
An Advantage engagement involves the development and continuous maintenance of two
vital strategic roadmaps incorporating airline programs with that of emerging industry
conditions such as regulatory changes, technology, and other operationally driven
trends, as well as developing and maintaining the airline's implementation capability.
Assisted by the subject matter experts from several of aviation’s key disciplines,
the Board and senior management is then able to provide crucial direction about capability,
interoperability and readiness to the organisational, departmental and individual
levels of the airline.
ADVANTAGE accomplishes this by ensuring the Board and senior management remains informed
about relevant industry developments, including regulatory changes, technology, technical
and systems trends on a forward-looking strategic roadmap. ADVANTAGE affords the Board
greater assurance around governance and risk about their operational environment,
including the way a growing number of industry developments might affect the airline
operating environment.
Basis in the Future
Significant issues are emerging in the industry requiring urgent Board and senior
management attention and most likely, intervention. These issues affect operational
risk, governance and assurance within the operating environment.
Airlines face growing complexity about how to integrate diverse, internally focussed
operating requirements, and efficiency and development programs. Now, the ability
to design, specify, integrate and implement internal programs with externally driven
imperatives by airports, ANSPs and industry-level segments of the operational and
passenger movement supply-chain will be critical to continuing efficient and cost-effective
operations. Amplifying this complexity is the necessity to maintain your competitive
advantages while working collaboratively with your competitors.
Closed Loop ADVANTAGE offers airlines a strategic service, a focused alignment with
your company, regarding these types of issues. The focus is to provide the Board and
senior management with an ongoing advisory service including development, implementation
and forward management of an overarching Strategic Target Implementation Architecture and Organisational Readiness and Capability
Plan. The aim is to mitigate risk, provide a system, program and operational assurance
along a forward-looking, future-focussed Operational Capability and Systems Trajectory.
