Mid-sized fleets carry major-airline complexity without major-airline budgets or headcount.
REACH Next Generation (NG) closes that gap: a single, real-time ecosystem that unifies flight tracking, scheduling, dispatch, weather, analytics and engineering data so your operation runs like one that’s ten times its size.
REACH NG isn’t another system bolted on top of the ones you already use. It’s the connective layer underneath them. It pulls live data out of your existing tools and partner platforms, fusing it into one accurate operational picture, and feeding decision-ready information back to the people who need it, the moment they need it.
Every Flight. Every Decision. One Platform.
When your team has the right information at the right moment, everything tightens up: KPIs land sooner, small issues get caught before they cascade, and teams stop firefighting and start managing.
That’s the operating state REACH NG is built to create.
There are 8 major aspects of aviation operations under the REACH NG Day Of Operations umbrella:
Know exactly where every aircraft in your fleet is, at any moment. With position reporting resolution as low as one second, REACH NG fuses data from ADS-B, ACARS, satellite, cellular and other sources into a single source of truth, rather than relying on any one feed alone.
Every data point is also captured for later use in business analytics
SkyNet REACH NG can supply data to and incorporate feeds from most scheduling, crewing and rostering systems, including the industry leaders. It also maintains an IATA Data Exchange Platform API (AIDX) to allow deeper cross-application data sharing. You have a choice of automated or manual scheduling with Auto Tactical Scheduling linked to ATC Flight Plan information.
Give your dispatchers a real edge. REACH NG factors in aircraft performance, cargo, weather and airspace conditions, and integrates with Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) systems to deliver instant routing advice and crew messaging: supporting fuel-efficient, cost-optimised route planning in real time.
Weather is the one variable you can't control, but you can stay ahead of it! REACH NG integrates and overlays observations and forecasts from the world's leading aviation weather services, so your team always has a current, reliable "weather eye" over schedules, costs and safety.
See the cost centres and profit levers that actually drive your fleet's performance. Live analytics and statistical reporting cover operational reliability, equipment availability and resource consumption: turning raw operational data into decisions you can act on.
REACH gives you a rich overview of the live events developing across your fleet and helps you eliminate or reduce the time it takes to rectify issues. Understanding the activities and systemic problems in your On-Time Performance (OTP) and Turn Around Reporting (TAR) is crucial for schedule recovery. Post-flight historical data includes data-driven insights into both. This analysis will give you actionable insights into where you can improve.
REACH NG reimagines FIDS as an internal operational tool, not just a passenger terminal board. It tracks the interlocking status of your fleet, processes, systems and crewing from before departure through to arrival, generating a real-time, tailored data stream for every team involved in turning an aircraft around and getting it back in the air.
Keep maintenance ahead of the aircraft, not behind it. REACH NG integrates and coordinates aircraft movement data with your engineering and MRO applications in real time: tracking critical hours and cycle consumption as the aircraft moves through its schedule and keeping your MRO platform continuously up to date.
The problems of efficiency, effectiveness and growth for mid-tier fleet operations are persistent, difficult and frustrating. That’s why we’ve spent 20 years working on solving them. And with the REACH Aero Day Of Operations ecosystem, we have finally been able to bring all our solutions together into one answer.
Our REACH Aero Day Of Operations is something revolutionary: an interlocking data ecosystem that integrates your current systems with best-in-breed partner solutions and live aircraft tracking. It covers every aspect of efficiently, safely, and effectively operating fleets of all shapes and sizes. And does it in real-time.
Through its flexibility, scalability and customisability, REACH Aero Day Of Operations removes the pain points of introducing new operation management technologies.
We’re able to quickly integrate and boost the efficiency of your current systems and processes; our ecosystem also offers in-built partnerships with industry-leading specialist applications.
For your air fleet, can you access and analyse the crucial data feeds in a straightforward, powerful and reliable way? Sadly, for almost all aviation operators, the answer has been no. The good news: with SkyNet Aviation, the answer can be yes!
With REACH NG Analytics – a standalone module for our world-leading REACH Day Of Operations platform – SkyNet Aviation can enable a truly holistic data environment for your operations.
Our dedicated in-house team of software and data engineers is here to help you unlock the power of your data. Every modern mid-sized aviation operator is already generating masses of data. Within those thousands of megabytes are invaluable insights for driving your operational efficiency, effectiveness and safety. They’re hard to extract, but they’re there. REACH Analytics is here to help you dig them out.
There are 8 major aspects of aviation operations under the REACH® Aero Day Of Operations umbrella:
Derive insights from a high-resolution 360-degree view of your operations by cutting across any departmental silos to intercept and work from the raw data
Secure a “single source of truth” by pulling relevant data from anywhere in your systems, including network drives, cloud accounts, email inboxes, file directories and different user accounts
Because REACH NG Analytics is deeply configurable, we can implement almost any statistical tool you need to crunch down thousands of data points into accurate, clear and powerful metrics
By giving the best possible picture of how your organisation is functioning, REACH NG Analytics gives your managers the confidence to make better decisions faster
Your business is a dynamic system, so when REACH NG Analytics insights are applied, your business will react, shift and change. This is why our analytical approaches continually adapt to stay maximally relevant
REACH NG Analytics can generate tailored reports that are useful, interesting or relevant to line staff, regulators, suppliers, investors and even the public
Modern aviation generates a near limitless amount of data. Gigabytes upon gigabytes flow from the aircraft, associated support software, flight operations platforms and the management systems that power the aviation organisation itself. Effectively and efficiently capturing it all and then bringing it together in one accessible, coherent and secure repository is a specialist IT task.
Doing just this, via SkyNet Data Warehousing, is an integral back-end function that powers REACH Day Of Operations. This valuable resource is also now available to REACH NG users. You can see every digital facet of your operations and be assured everything is tracked, captured and stored securely in an easily accessible form.
The REACH NG Business Analytics module makes your data proactive. Through statistical insights and modelling your data is transformed into an advanced strategic management tool.
The module lets you detect and identify the positive and negative operational dynamics at play in your organisation that are otherwise obscured by the day-to-day task load of simply keeping your fleet in the air safely and profitably.
You can finally reveal the true cause and effect of your profit centres, time delays and bottlenecks, and then track the data trail from its source right through to all downstream effects.
In effect, Data Integration covers two aspects:
This capability transforms operational efficiency, effectiveness, compliance and safety. At present, most business apps and tools only track the state of operations on a considerable lag.
Even short reporting intervals of 48 hours, for example, still represent two whole days without an overview of what’s happening in the field.
Two whole days in which your key financial, operational and management decision-makers must use educated strategic guesses based on experience and what little live intel filters through.
Data Integration upends that paradigm.
Data Integration brings everything up to the minute and keeps it there. Essentially, you can observe the dynamics of your operations as they play out. You’ll improve responsiveness, efficiency and cost-saving.
