NAXOS

ProDIGIQ’s Flight Operations System (NAXOS) optimizes air operations assignment, aircrew scheduling, and qualifications. NAXOS facilitates the management of complex crew qualifications, seniority, and license renewals that can be aggregated and updated at anytime. NAXOS automates the crew scheduling process by incorporating several factors to create robust schedules. The system's built-in intelligence considers crew availability, seniority, qualifications, currency, regulations, and military-specific rules to assign flight crew schedules and seamlessly match aircraft commanders, pilots, and loadmasters to available flights. NAXOS provides real-time information, enabling flight operations specialists and schedulers to manage and respond efficiently to last minute swap requests and crew-related aircraft disruptions on the day of operations. With streamlined crew assignment and management, NAXOS improves squadron operations.

Crew management is one of the most complex aspects of flight operations. Crew management involves creating flight schedules for aircrew based on seniority, qualifications, and availability to create a fair schedule for all crew members, as well as ensuring proper trip coverage. Commanders and supervisors must consider several factors when assigning aircrew. They must ensure compliance with general flight rules outlined in the Air Force Manual 11-202 Volume 3, such as crew rest, flight duty period, and maximum flying time. They must also ensure that aircrew have the necessary qualifications and medical clearance to operate flights. Flight operations must be streamlined and efficient to enhance mission readiness.

Flight operations software can optimize military resource utilization for efficient squadron operations. Flight operations software can be flexible to accommodate crew requests as well as unexpected circumstances and disruptions, such as flight delays, mission changes, mechanical issues, etc. Artificial intelligence in flight operations software can also ensure compliance with regulations and military-specific rules. Reporting, automatic alerts, and analytics can provide operational insights for decision-making and improve transparency of flight operations.
