Hong Kong’s Low-Cost Carrier Gains Single System for Authoring and Compliance Management

Beloit, WI, USA – Aug. 26, 2020 – Aviation software leader Comply365 is pleased to welcome HK Express, Hong Kong-based low-cost carrier and a subsidiary of Cathay Pacific Group, to its customer base with a multiyear contract that will streamline its operational content authoring process as it provides “smart manuals” to crew members and improves the airline’s compliance management system.

Comply365’s ProAuthor, an end-to-end operational content and compliance management system, will replace multiple disparate systems at HK Express while delivering more personalized and relevant content to crew in flight operations, inflight service, ground operations, maintenance and engineering, as well as to third-party vendors.

“We were looking for a unified system to improve document control and maintain regulatory compliance. Comply365’s proven solution and innovative team will give us the tools and flexibility we need to efficiently deliver smart manuals to our crews,” HK Express CEO Mandy Ng said. “We’re excited that the airline will benefit from the user-friendly system, setting us up to emerge stronger from today’s unprecedented challenges.”

Using ProAuthor, HK Express will now be able to better track regulatory compliance, including industry and Hong Kong regulatory standards, while improving efficiency throughout the authoring process from creating, editing, and reviewing manuals to maintaining the data after distribution. Improved user and group management with Comply365 will provide more effective document distribution and notifications, enhancing safety and compliance.

“We are happy to welcome HK Express to our global user community, and we know they’ll find a supportive team here at Comply365 that will ensure our solutions set them up for success as the industry rebuilds,” Comply365 CEO Tom Samuel said. “The tremendous benefits HK Express will realize, including simplifying a complex process into a streamlined, efficient and automated system to deliver more targeted content to the end user, will help the airline better manage the ‘new normal’ facing carriers.”

Comply365’s End-to-End Authoring Platform to Boost Manual Revision Process

Beloit, WI, USA – Aug. 18, 2020 – Aviation software leader Comply365 is happy to announce its existing client ABX Air will soon leverage the power of structured authoring for its manuals to enable the growing carrier to always be audit ready and easily scale its authoring process while publishing cross-referenced, tail-specific maintenance and flight operations manuals.

ABX AirABX Air, a subsidiary cargo airline of Air Transport Services Group, Inc., recently added ProAuthor and Forms365. ProAuthor is Comply365’s end-to-end operational content and compliance management system that enables faster, more routine manual revisions while enabling the airline to always be audit ready by running reports of standards mapped during the authoring phase.

“We’ve had a great experience working with Comply365 to distribute important content to our Flight Operations team, making them an innovative partner to turn to as we advance in our digital strategy to support our airline’s growth,” said John Maloney, Vice President of Flight Operations. “We’re excited to upgrade to a more robust solution that will provide efficiencies for our Technical Publications team, as well as deliver smart data to our crews, enhancing safety by making it easier and faster for them to find exactly what they need.”

The Ohio-based airline expects a 30-percent reduction in total end-to-end publication time, while also reducing the lead time to get new procedures to pilots, loadmasters, mechanics, and ground crews. Current manuals are published in PDF and provide no interconnectivity, forcing users to search each one individually for information. Using ProAuthor, their new manuals will allow cross-referencing with other manuals for the first time, eliminating confusion and decreasing the chance of errors.

The cargo airline has responded quickly to the global pandemic, helping to maintain the flow of vital supplies and increased e-commerce shopping under very challenging conditions. ProAuthor will allow the carrier to scale – authoring 30 to 50 percent more publications – while maintaining its existing team thanks to automated workflows.

ABX Air has been leveraging the power of Comply365’s mobile app with Document & Communication Manager (DCM) since early 2018 to provide its flight crews immediate access to manuals and important memos needed on their mobile iOS devices.

“It’s been wonderful working with ABX Air, and it is an honor that they have chosen to expand that relationship with the addition of ProAuthor for the next stage of their transformation,” Comply365 CEO Tom Samuel said. “Amid this challenging time for the aviation industry, it’s important to recognize the tremendous benefits ABX will realize by investing in a solution that will provide higher-value content to their users to enhance safety, compliance, and efficiency.”

Ottawa-Based Airline Gains a Single System for Authoring and Compliance Management

Beloit, WI, USA – March 5, 2020 – Aviation software leader Comply365 is pleased to welcome Canadian North to its customer base with a multiyear contract that will transform the operational information flight crew members must access into “smart manuals” and improve the airline’s compliance management system.

Canadian NorthComply365’s ProAuthor, an end-to-end operational content and compliance management system, will replace multiple disparate systems at the Ottawa, Canada-based airline while delivering more personalized and relevant content to their pilots, flight attendants, and maintenance technicians.

“We needed to establish consistency across our operational manuals, and we wanted a single system to manage and deliver our operational content as well as track end-user compliance,” Canadian North President & CEO Chris Avery said. “Comply365 is used widely across Canada and the United States, and the great feedback we’ve heard from other airlines helped solidify our choice in this trusted brand.”

Canadian North, which recently merged with First Air, provides passenger service across 25 destinations within the Northwest Territories, Nunavik and Nunavut, from its southern gateways of Ottawa, Montreal, and Edmonton. It is also the premier charter service provider and delivers essential goods across very remote areas of northern Canada.

Using ProAuthor, more than 400 employees in the Flight Operations, Inflight and Maintenance departments at Canadian North now will receive smart manuals on their tablets that reduce the data required to download updates, which was especially important because of the limited connectivity in the remote areas the airline serves.

“We warmly welcome Canadian North and look forward to providing them with a solution to boost their end-user compliance while replacing multiple systems to efficiently manage complex processes in a single documentation system that works across the airline,” Comply365 CEO Tom Samuel said. “Canadian North now has the power to deliver more personalized information to flight crews so they can safely and more efficiently travel to places that are essentially off the grid.”

More than 6,000 employees will benefit from the replacement of multiple existing documentation systems with Comply365’s single ProAuthor platform, which will be used to manage and distribute company manuals and documentation from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), making compliance-related documentation and tracking much easier.

As the first Middle Eastern client for this advanced system, Etihad Airways is a significant addition to the base of airlines across the globe who rely daily on Comply365’s platform for authoring and digital delivery of operational (manufacturer and company) manuals, including flight operations manuals, via mobile apps.

Comply365 CEO Tom Samuel said: “I am pleased to welcome Etihad Airways into our client community. It is exciting to be partnering with such an innovative and global brand.
