Honeywell has redesigned its Flight Efficiency
platform to provide aircraft operators with insights to help them
make enhanced decisions about their fuel utilization.
Additionally, the new cloud-based platform which
was previously known as Honeywell Forge Flight Efficiency is being
renamed as Honeywell Flight Efficiency.
Honeywell Flight Efficiency analyzes and
simplifies streams of disparate data from a wide variety of
sources, allowing aircraft operators to develop, implement and
measure initiatives that help them make educated decisions around
reducing aircraft operating costs.
The rebuilt offering delivers
several benefits to customers, including advanced data analysis
capabilities, a new user interface, faster performance, and more
scalable architecture.
“This platform is aligned with the practical and
immediate needs of our customers,” said Karen Miller, General
Manager – Services and Connectivity, Honeywell Aerospace. “The
aviation industry is facing unprecedented increases in fuel and
other operational costs. It is imperative for everyone in the
ecosystem to work together to reduce operating costs while also
creating a more sustainable future for aviation. Honeywell is
ready to help our customers meet these sustainability challenges
with Honeywell Flight Efficiency.”
Flight Efficiency includes in-air and on-ground
solutions for flight operations, fuel managers and maintenance
personnel in a single user interface.
By providing alerts and
identifying savings opportunities, the solution can help airlines
maximize profits while improving workflows among pilots, ground
maintenance and operations to increase productivity.
Key features of the platform include:
– : Reducing fuel consumption
is a good way for an airline to cut emissions while reducing
operating costs. Honeywell Flight Efficiency is designed to help
airlines make fuel efficiency decisions, assisting them with
their efforts to reduce direct fuel costs as well as potentially
minimizing the additional cost of offsetting carbon emissions.
– : Machine learning
algorithms can automatically detect flight events and procedures
such as automated shortcut detection, holding detection,
acceleration altitude reduction and continuous descent operations,
among others.
– : Airlines can use the
platform to analyze multiple disparate sources of data
simultaneously to measure performance and derive insights. Users
can either choose the pre defined analytics and reports or define
their own custom queries.
Honeywell
Flight Efficiency is currently used on more than 3,000 aircraft
around the world.
