British Airways uses new engineering records system

Global provider of processing services and solutions, BancTec, announced that BA (British Airways) has chosen for an engineering record management project that is expect to last for at least three years.

BancTec will be responsible for outsourcing about 65 million engineering records for British Airways allowing the business to cut its costs and increase its business value.

Aircraft Documentation Manager of BA, Adrian Hassell, stated that outsourcing the engineering tasks is a crucial part to sustaining BA’s success as a business and that doing so will help the organization better manage their data.

Hassell also noted that BancTac was the best choice for the project due to the scope and size of its operations within the UK and that they feel the partnership will be beneficial to both parties.

General Manager for BancTec, Steve Downey, stated that BA is one of the top airlines in the world and they are honoured to have been selected as the outsourcer of choice for the project.  He added that they look forward to working with the airline company and offering them a great way to reduce cost and increase savings.

The EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) requires all airlines to file their engineering records for at least two years after an aircraft is taken out of the air.  With a fleet of over 250 airlines at BA, this task can be hard to manage due to the fact it is mostly in hard copy format.

BankTec aims to provide the company with ‘free text’ searches in a digital format making the process of recovering a record or transferring it much simpler for all parties involved.
