You need software that is equipped with a robust computational model delivering on all your fleet requirements—especially all the structural limitations that relate to your P2F aircraft.
Evionica’s robust and reliable software enables you to achieve maximum capacity utilization while maintaining full safety and compliance.
It’s important to have a team of experienced aeronautical engineers behind you, providing you with solutions to such a common problem. It’s important that the team has a high level of familiarity with all the essential documentation formats (AHM560/565, manufacturer’s specs, converter’s supplements, loading systems). A provider whose experience and effectiveness are proven by its successful operations with airlines like WGA, GlobalX, SmartLynx, and Levu sounds like a pretty good place to start!
Evionica provides comprehensive engineering support. Our experienced team has extensive know-how and familiarity with:
- OEM-provided documentation, e.g., Airbus, Boeing
- Passenger aircraft IATA AHM 560/565 formats
- Supplements added by converters, e.g., EFW, Precision, IAI, AEI)
- Diverse ULD loading systems’ specifications
Evionica's engineers will analyze the entire documentation for your new aircraft and configure the system accordingly. Evionica’s 24/7 Support will quickly and effectively implement any changes to the Fleet Database without you having to worry about costly engineering competency.
So Hard to Comprehend?
It's fairly typical to overlook training requirements for crew. As a result, they may be unfamiliar with the weight dynamics of converted aircraft (the complexity we mentioned above). In such situations, it is best to look for a Weight and Balance system that is easy to use, with a clear and intuitive interface, making it simpler for staff to learn and operate. Acquiring the right skills should be smooth and simple, ensuring optimal efficiency.
Evionica’s Weight & Balance facilitates your aircraft handling procedure. It comes with an intuitive step-by-step (wizard-like) interface. All the options and parameters of an aircraft (particular tail number) are reflected in the system and available to the Controller. It also eliminates redundant options (those that are not relevant for the aircraft), which makes the interface cleaner and safer.
Thanks to the system’s simplicity, in less than one hour of e-learning (CBT) based training, Load Controllers (aka Dispatchers) will be fully prepared to use the app.
Too Many Possible Solutions!
Which One to Choose?
Of course, each cargo airline has its own unique needs. However, there is one general truth for all airlines that are in the process of introducing P2F to their fleet. There is a crucial need for a system that:
🗸 Automatically distributes loads to maximize underload
🗸 Optimizes fuel efficiency (trim)
🗸 Ensures dangerous goods (DGR) separation, and
🗸 Facilitates multi-sector freight unloading
★ All while maintaining full compliance with regulations.
Evionica fully delivers on all of these things with a comprehensive one-click Auto-load assistant. Abracadabra, you now have a perfect load distribution that is also fully compliant! Magic? We like to think so!
Last Minute Changes Delaying Flights?
While loading the aircraft, unforeseen circumstances may arise, such as:
- Non-normative packaging
- Payload Manifest (UWS) typos
- Removed load
- Late delivery under the aircraft, etc.
Such situations force the Loading Supervisor to react quickly within a limited turn-around time. Recomputing the C.G. can be cumbersome without a proper tool and risks a costly delay. The Loading Supervisor requires a tool that enables quick validation of an alternate load distribution and updates the Loadsheet (aka Trim Sheet).
Evionica’s Weight & Balance is designed to be used on a tablet device (e.g., iPad, Android) under the aircraft, enabling the Load Supervisor to react immediately to changes without delay.
In more exotic locations, Internet access may be an issue, making remote preparation of the Loadsheet impractical. Evionica’s Weight & Balance can work offline, allowing you to perform all the necessary computations and print the load sheet whenever and wherever it is needed.
So Much Information to Be Typed in!?
Preparing a Loadsheet requires lots of information to be defined, often by typing it in. The Payload Manifest is especially prone to errors with its large amount of data and long Airway Bill codes. To limit the workload of Controllers and minimize the risk of typos, the Weight & Balance solution must offer robust integration options.
The answer to such a common problem is having a broad API.
A broad API seamlessly connects flight schedules, configuration options, fuel data, and payload manifests, ensuring accurate, timely and efficient data exchange. Integrations enhance safety, reliability, and overall efficiency.
Evionica’s Weight & Balance offers a broad set of APIs and an in-house engineering team familiar with the other systems airlines use. The choice is entirely yours. If you want, you can send the Payload Manifest can be sent via API. You can send the Payload Manifest via API or upload a file (TXT, XLS) in your preferred format—it's entirely up to you!
Aircraft Specification Updates!
Maintaining and disseminating up-to-date aircraft documentation can be a challenge with a growing fleet. A centralized Fleet Database, serving as a single source of information, is the answer.
Evionica’s Weight and Balance solution offers a Cloud Fleet Database, guaranteeing seamless access and Loadsheets that are always compliant.
Updating a database to reflect recent changes often requires specialized skills and immediate availability. This can drive costs up. With Evionica, you have 24/7 support from our experienced engineers who will quickly update the database whenever you require, ensuring your costs are kept down!
