Sabre Airline Solutions, the global leader of software
and services for the airline industry from planning to execution,
today announced the signing of an enterprise agreement with Penauille
Servisair, one of the world's leading ground handling agents.
Through this agreement, Penauille Servisair will implement the
Sabre Streamline Resource Management Suite, providing world-class
management of staff resources across its global station network for
the benefit of its airline customers worldwide.
With over 21,000 employees, Penauille Servisair has immense scale
and diversity in operations. Implementation of the Streamline suite
will enable the company to consistently plan, roster, administer and
manage its global workforce. Through consistency of execution and
incorporation of best practices, the product suite will enable
Penauille Servisair to operate with stronger cost controls and higher
profits while offering its customers world-class ground handling
services.
The Streamline suite will enable Penauille Servisair to:
-- Significantly reduce the manual process of resource
forecasting and task planning and build centers of excellence
for consistency and efficiency across airport stations
-- Build staff rosters with consideration given to various
patterns, preferences and work rules according to local
standards and regulations;
-- Provide tailored ground handling services with better control
and more predictable, managed costs; and
-- Manage increases in business volume while minimizing
additional allocation of resources.
Along with implementation and maintenance services, Sabre Airline
Solutions will provide the Sabre Streamline StaffPlan resource
forecasting and planning system, the Sabre Streamline RosterMaker
roster generation system, the Sabre Streamline StaffAdmin employee
tracking and roster administration system and the Sabre Streamline
StaffManager automated resource allocation system. Implementation of
the Streamline suite will initially cover passenger and ramp handling
services. Penauille Servisair provides ground handling services at
more than 140 airports across 28 countries on four continents for 700
customers who serve over 102 million passengers a year.
"Sabre Airline Solutions was selected because of its ability to
service customers across multiple regions and the Streamline suite's
ability to address diverse local requirements," said Denis Lawn,
senior vice president, Global Operations Support at Penauille
Servisair. "The flexibility and robust nature of the system provides a
solution that can be configured and tailored to the regional needs of
each station. There are significant efficiencies to be gained by
adopting a centralized methodology and system to manage resources. We
anticipate improvements in administrative efficiency and resource
accuracy. After an intensive evaluation, Sabre Airline Solutions
proved to be the clear choice to offer the best solution."
Penauille Servisair has initiated several corporate-wide
transformation initiatives that require significant process
reengineering, a systematic approach to resource management and
technology that will support and enable these strategic operating
changes. The Streamline solution, with over 40 airline and ground
handling customers, was selected to support these strategic
initiatives.
To minimize capital expenditure, the Streamline suite will be
deployed via the Sabre eMergo Web access platform, which will allow
Penauille Servisair to access the Streamline systems via a secure
Internet connection. The Streamline suite leverages Microsoft's
BizTalk Server 2006 for integration with existing third-party systems,
such as enterprise resource planning, human resources and payroll
systems, in use at Penauille Servisair. It uses the latest
technologies and industry standards for automating and managing
cross-system business processes, reducing project timelines and risk.
The eMergo solution will provide a cost-effective solution and
uninterrupted system access 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365
days a year.
"Global businesses continue to need software that can help them
quickly integrate existing technology assets and manage
mission-critical business processes," said Steven Martin, director of
BizTalk Product Management Microsoft. "We are pleased to have Sabre
and Penauille Servisair using BizTalk Server 2006 to gain efficiencies
across their technology assets and business processes."
"The Penauille Servisair agreement demonstrates the ability of
Sabre Airline Solutions to provide value to varied areas of the
aviation industry," said Steve Clampett, president of Airline Products
and Services, Sabre Airline Solutions. "By carefully identifying
client requirements, we are able to leverage our solutions expertise
and experience to provide a rapid and measurable return on investment
to customers in many areas of the industry."
The Streamline suite serves over 40 customers worldwide, and
Penauille Servisair joins Jardine Aviation Services Group, Flightcare
Belgium and Worldwide Flight Services as leading ground handling
agents benefiting from use of the Streamline suite.
