Sabre Airline Solutions, the global leader of software and services
for the airline industry from planning to execution, today
announced the signing of an enterprise agreement with Penauille
Servisair, one of the world's leading ground handling agents.
Through this agreement, Penauille Servisair will implement the
Sabre Streamline Resource Management Suite, providing world-class
management of staff resources across its global station network for
the benefit of its airline customers worldwide. With over 21,000
employees, Penauille Servisair has immense scale and diversity in
operations. Implementation of the Streamline suite will enable the
company to consistently plan, roster, administer and manage its
global workforce. Through consistency of execution and
incorporation of best practices, the product suite will enable
Penauille Servisair to operate with stronger cost controls and
higher profits while offering its customers world-class ground
handling services. The Streamline suite will enable Penauille
Servisair to: -- Significantly reduce the manual process of
resource forecasting and task planning and build centers of
excellence for consistency and efficiency across airport stations
-- Build staff rosters with consideration given to various
patterns, preferences and work rules according to local standards
and regulations; -- Provide tailored ground handling services with
better control and more predictable, managed costs; and -- Manage
increases in business volume while minimizing additional allocation
of resources. Along with implementation and maintenance services,
Sabre Airline Solutions will provide the Sabre Streamline StaffPlan
resource forecasting and planning system, the Sabre Streamline
RosterMaker roster generation system, the Sabre Streamline
StaffAdmin employee tracking and roster administration system and
the Sabre Streamline StaffManager automated resource allocation
system. Implementation of the Streamline suite will initially cover
passenger and ramp handling services. Penauille Servisair provides
ground handling services at more than 140 airports across 28
countries on four continents for 700 customers who serve over 102
million passengers a year. "Sabre Airline Solutions was selected
because of its ability to service customers across multiple regions
and the Streamline suite's ability to address diverse local
requirements," said Denis Lawn, senior vice president, Global
Operations Support at Penauille Servisair. "The flexibility and
robust nature of the system provides a solution that can be
configured and tailored to the regional needs of each station.
There are significant efficiencies to be gained by adopting a
centralized methodology and system to manage resources. We
anticipate improvements in administrative efficiency and resource
accuracy. After an intensive evaluation, Sabre Airline Solutions
proved to be the clear choice to offer the best solution."
Penauille Servisair has initiated several corporate-wide
transformation initiatives that require significant process
reengineering, a systematic approach to resource management and
technology that will support and enable these strategic operating
changes. The Streamline solution, with over 40 airline and ground
handling customers, was selected to support these strategic
initiatives. To minimize capital expenditure, the Streamline suite
will be deployed via the Sabre eMergo Web access platform, which
will allow Penauille Servisair to access the Streamline systems via
a secure Internet connection. The Streamline suite leverages
Microsoft's BizTalk Server 2006 for integration with existing
third-party systems, such as enterprise resource planning, human
resources and payroll systems, in use at Penauille Servisair. It
uses the latest technologies and industry standards for automating
and managing cross-system business processes, reducing project
timelines and risk. The eMergo solution will provide a
cost-effective solution and uninterrupted system access 24 hours a
day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. "Global businesses
continue to need software that can help them quickly integrate
existing technology assets and manage mission-critical business
processes," said Steven Martin, director of BizTalk Product
Management Microsoft. "We are pleased to have Sabre and Penauille
Servisair using BizTalk Server 2006 to gain efficiencies across
their technology assets and business processes." "The Penauille
Servisair agreement demonstrates the ability of Sabre Airline
Solutions to provide value to varied areas of the aviation
industry," said Steve Clampett, president of Airline Products and
Services, Sabre Airline Solutions. "By carefully identifying client
requirements, we are able to leverage our solutions expertise and
experience to provide a rapid and measurable return on investment
to customers in many areas of the industry." The Streamline suite
