Or how to regain control of the digital future of air transport

 

Context : a puzzle that has lost its coherence

For over a decade, the air transport industry has been undergoing a quiet but profound transformation. Airlines and airports, faced with constant pressure
on their costs, have opted to outsource a large part of their IT.
This move, rational in the short term, has had one major consequence: information systems, once the levers of differentiation, have become fragmented

mosaics, scattered among multiple service providers.

 

These providers, who have become indispensable, now hold essential parts of the operational side of the business. The real owners are financing
systems they no longer control, losing agility and seeing their capacity for innovation conditioned by the choice of their suppliers.

 

In other words, those involved in air transport are flying an aircraft whose controls are partly in the hands of others.

​

The need for a new direction: the Agility Platform

Faced with this reality, a conviction is emerging: it's no longer a question of managing a fragmented IS, but of regaining sovereignty over its data and its

capacity to innovate.
This is precisely the role of an Agility Platform (AP).

 

An AP is not just another data warehouse, nor is it just another technology to be added to the puzzle. It is the central cockpit where the company's vital data flows converge, are organized and enriched.

 

It provides an operational foundation for:

• Transform data into strategic capital, whether internal or external.

• Guarantee its consistency and value over time.

• Open up an unlimited playground for current and future applications, thanks to high-performance services and microservices.

​​

What are the pillars : 

To play this founding role, an AP must be conceived as a living infrastructure, endowed with visionary qualities:

• Resilient and scalable: absorb growing flows like an organism adapting to its environment.

• Open and interoperable: speak the language of standards, promote open source, and abolish borders between systems.

• Event-driven: reacting in real time, broadcasting signals, orchestrating events in a world in constant motion.

• Flexible: integrate agile rules that transform processes into adaptive levers.

• Piloted: provide real-time visibility, like a digital dashboard, giving decision-makers control of every moment.

A paradigm shift : from dependence to sovereignty

​

The real challenge is not technological. It's strategic.

 

It's not a question of adding another piece to the puzzle, but of giving meaning to the whole: putting data back at the center, and giving carriers back the power to act.
With an Agility Platform, business decision-makers regain their place in the cockpit of digital transformation. They regain control of their systems, accelerate their capacity for innovation, and ensure that technology remains a lever for value creation - and not an imposed constraint.
 

Air transport has entered an era where agility is the new currency.
The Agility Platform is the key: not just another solution, but the foundation of a sovereign, fluid and visionary future.
