Panagiotis Dimopoulos (Senior Operations Research Analyst Aegean Airlines ) presented “Operational excellence through one shared data reality”, showcasing a solution we built together with Aegean: OPS360, avibright‘s IOCC Turnaround Monitoring Platform 👉 https://lnkd.in/dEnRhgNf

The challenge: critical operational data exists in multiple systems — flight ops, ground handling, maintenance, crew — but no one has a single, coherent picture of the turnaround in real time.

avibrght OPS360 changes that.

• One screen – One version of the truth
• No silos
• A team that’s always looking at the same operational reality.
• Fewer delays
• Faster decisions.

Thank you Aegean Airlines and Panagiotis Dimopoulos for presenting this to the global aviation Operational Research community. ✈️

Our CEO, Angelos Astrinidis and OPS360 Product Owner, Stathis Papalefkas attended the conference, representing avibright.

Airline uniforms are more than a brand statement, they are an operational asset that supports safety, profesionalism, and consistency across every customer touchpoint. Yet managing uniforms for thousands of employees across multiple bases and hundreds of item variations is a complex logistical task.

Traditionally, uniform programs have relied on spreadsheets, email requests, and manual coordination with suppliers; processes that are time-consuming and prone to errors. As airlines modernize their operations, many are adopting specialized uniform management software to bring efficiency, transparency, and control to this critical workflow.

The Operational Complexity Behind Airline Uniform Programs

Uniform programs in aviation operate under detailed rules that vary by role, seniority, season, and regulatory requirements. Pilots, cabin crew, and ground staff often have different entitlements, replacement cycles, and sizing requirements.

Without a centralized system, airlines may face challenges such as:

• Inventory shortages or overstocking
• Delays in outfitting new hires
• Ordering errors and incorrect sizing
• Inefficient stock transfers between hubs
• Limited visibility into inventory and spending
• Appointment delays and operational bottlenecks

For airlines operating across multiple bases, these inefficiencies can quickly increase operational costs and administrative workload. Digital platforms help address these challenges by automating ordering processes, tracking employee entitlements, and providing real-time oversight of uniform operations.

Bringing Automation to Uniform Management

Uniform management software centralizes and automates the entire uniform lifecycle—from procurement and inventory management to employee ordering and replacement tracking. By connecting employees, administrators, and suppliers on a single platform, airlines can enforce uniform policies while significantly reducing administrative effort.

At avibright (avibright.com), we have developed ENDYSIS  (named after the Greek word “endysis,” meaning clothing) a Uniform Management Platform purpose-built for airline operations.

The platform digitizes the entire uniform management process, enabling airlines to automate workflows, monitor inventory, and manage uniform distribution from a single centralized system. Built specifically for aviation, the platform allows airlines to structure uniform programs based on employee roles and entitlements while maintaining full visibility across inventory, procurement, and distribution across multiple operational bases.

It supports the full lifecycle of airline uniform programs through capabilities such as:

• Centralized visibility of item & uniform inventory across locations and operational bases
• Role-based uniform configuration and automated entitlement management
• Real-time monitoring of stock levels, supplier deliveries, and procurement needs
• Coordination of fittings, repairs, replacements, and returns
• Lifecycle tracking to manage uniform usage, wear, and replacement planning
• Integration with HR, ERP, and supply chain systems to keep employee data and uniform policies synchronized

Employees can access the platform through a mobile self-service application to review their entitlements, request new items, schedule fittings, and track orders.

As a result, a system like this helps airlines:

• Reduce administrative workload
• Improve ordering accuracy
• Avoid unnecessary costs
• Maintain brand and safety compliance
• Enhance employee experience

Supporting Airline Digital Transformation

As airlines invest in digital solutions for crew management, operational analytics, and disruption handling, uniform management is becoming another area where automation delivers measurable value.

By centralizing and digitizing uniform operations, airlines can transform uniforms from simple apparel into managed operational assets—tracked, optimized, and aligned with wider operational processes.

For airlines seeking greater efficiency while maintaining consistent brand presentation across their workforce, such platforms demonstrate how specialized technology can transform one of the industry’s most overlooked operational workflows.

Hyperion is an integrated system that enables the teams responsible for disruption management, to handle affected flights and accommodate customers in a timely and cost efficient way. The aim of this solution is to gather, consolidate, summarize and analyse operational data, coming from various sources, through a single interface to simplify decision making and automate processes. It does this by automatically producing several possible solutions to each situation, giving the airline customer care agents the ability to choose and implement the best possible one.

Through an advanced smart and colour-based notification system, the agent has quick and real-time information on:

• possible delays,
• misconnections,
• actions required for a flight (e.g. provide meal vouchers to passengers),
• flights marked as “important”,
• flights marked as “no further actions required”,
• aircraft modifications.

Furthermore, in case of discrepancies between DCS and the operational system of the airline, the agent is notified through a Synergy Hub and can update DCS with the click of a button, without leaving Hyperion’s interface.

Interview with Panos Nikolaidis, Ground Operations Director at Aegean Airlines and Olympic Air on HYPERION

Lately Aegean is introducing a lot of digitalization in several functions / processes. Mr.Nikolaidis, what is the relationship of Aegean with digitalization?

Our primary and first focus is the customer and offering the best and up-to-date services and products, which will always make the journey with us a nice and relaxing experience. Having said that, when designing or reviewing a process or a product, we always ask ourselves: “How can we make it digital? How can our customers benefit from the vast area of opportunities that digitalization offers, in order to enjoy better service and care from us? How our people’s daily activities can be easier by using technology in order to offer better services at all circumstances?”

So yes, we believe a lot in the digitalization which gives even more power either directly to our customers or indirectly, via our people who are in front and behind the scenes, working on offering to them the best travel experience whatsoever.

How does Aegean feel about automation?

Well, we feel happy that we live in this era of innovation and advanced technologies which make our lives easier. Of course, we see automation as a helping tool and not as something that replaces the human interaction.

Aegean for the past year introduced a big digital initiative around disruption. What is disruption for you?

We all know that, at some point, things will go wrong. At this exact moment, when the operation is not evolving as originally planned, for example, due to bad weather conditions at a specific destination, we know that this is where we need to put extra focus and care to our customers.

Therefore, disruption for us is something expected and it is an opportunity to show to all those people who chose traveling with Aegean, that when things go wrong, we are there, we are prepared and we take good care of them, while minimizing as much as possible the inconvenience that a flight disruption may cause to them.

And what have you done around disruption?

In cooperation with aviBright, we have developed our own Passenger Disruption Management System, called Hyperion, which is used by our Customer Care Center, a 24/7 team located inside our Operations Control Center in our head office in Athens that is responsible for all passenger disruptions.

Using Hyperion, this small team easily identifies disruption and acts proactively instead of reactively.

Via integrations with our core systems (PSS), we provide true personalized service to disrupted customers by sending out automated notifications.

How did you identify the needs behind Hyperion?

When we looked at disruption, we saw that there was a lack of ownership. This led us to believe that we need to establish a Centralized Disruption Handling Team (Customer Care Center).

Then, we also identified the need to eliminate queuing from airports during disruption.

There were people queuing at the airports waiting just to be informed about the flight they are re-protected, find out their rebooked flights or get directions on what they should do next (e.g. how to go to the hotel they are accommodated).

It became very clear to us, that we needed to find ways to reach out to our disrupted customers and push the information to them, on what actions we have already taken in respect of their care.

And how did you move forward?

We combined our business know-how with our software partner’s (avibright) technology know-how.

avibright helped us to transform our business requirements and our vision into a Passenger Disruption Management application: Hyperion.  The tool was easily adopted and used by our people and we had a really smooth transition to providing the new digitalized services.

And what does Hyperion do exactly?

Hyperion integrates with our systems (e.g. PSS) and our partners (e.g. hotels) and is pushing real time notifications to disrupted customers including their vouchers (snack/ meal / compensations) and hotel accommodation.

The main benefit of Hyperion is the improved customer satisfaction, achieved through the identification of each passenger’s needs and the provision of true personalized service. At the same time, we now handle disruption through a single interface, removing user friction and the constant need to train agents on how to use different platforms.

In addition, we now have a very detailed analysis of data related to passenger disruption costs.
