TechPubs’ FlightComply and FlightPubs content management and EFB solutions to ensure rapid, more streamlined regulatory compliance; more efficient flight ops and maintenance processes.
Longmont, CO, JULY 9, 2009 – Allegiant Air, the airline subsidiary of Allegiant Travel Company, (NASDAQ: ALGT), has engaged aviation content management software and services leader TechPubs Inc to upgrade its enterprise-wide technical document management systems, used in flight operations and maintenance.
Commercial aviation professionals depend on technical publications information to ensure that key functions, including flight operations and maintenance, are as efficient and as compliant with regulatory requirements as possible. TechPubs’ FlightPubs and FlightComply solutions ensure that up-to-date information is fully available across the airline enterprise – anywhere, to anyone, in the precise digital formats required.
Allegiant Air’s partnership with TechPubs will enable the airline to establish an enterprise-wide content management system to manage processes, lifecycles, and audit trails for a variety of data and documents in its organization, such as Airline Operations, Maintenance, and Engineering. Central to the system is a repository allowing Allegiant to reduce the effort required to perform its business functions, increase the overall quality of its content, and provide a consistent and unified method for performing functions across the enterprise (such as unified security, unified workflow/processes, unified searching for content, unified web access, etc.)
Additionally, TechPubs will supply Allegiant Air with its EFBLink, a complete Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) publishing, distribution and viewing solution. EFBLink will enable the transformation of XML content to a specific EFB platform, including data packaging and distribution channel integration and specialized viewer in the cockpit.
“When we studied the marketplace for technical documentation management software and services, TechPubs stood out for its unique combination of technical and aviation-industry expertise,” said Maurice J. Gallagher, the airline’s president and CEO. “Great software is only effective if it’s implemented and supported by people who really understand the business and regulatory challenges unique to the commercial aviation industry. TechPubs filled the bill perfectly, and we look forward to a long, productive relationship.”
“We’re thrilled that Allegiant selected TechPubs to help them advance their technical document management procedures to the next level,” said David Williams, TechPubs’ President and CEO. “The trust Allegiant places in us to make their entire enterprise more efficient, nimble, and compliant with increasingly stringent safety regulations is a reflection of the technical and industry expertise that sets us apart.”
