Version française Legacy systems and manual workflows are grounding operational efficiency in aviation.
Airlines, airports, and MRO providers operate under intense pressure to minimize delays, control costs, and meet stringent safety and regulatory requirements — all while managing thousands of real-time data points across fleets, crews, gates, and ground services. Outdated systems that don't communicate with each other create blind spots that drive delays, increase maintenance costs, and frustrate passengers. Kiloctet designs aviation software that integrates operational data across the entire flight ecosystem, enabling faster decisions and a seamless passenger experience.
Technologies & platforms we use
A centralized platform for managing flight scheduling, crew rostering, aircraft assignments, and ground handling coordination in real time. Operations controllers get a single view of the entire flight day, with automated conflict detection flagging crew duty time violations or aircraft maintenance holds before they cause delays. Integration with meteorological feeds and NOTAM systems keeps operational decisions informed by the latest airspace and weather data.
An omnichannel platform covering web check-in, mobile boarding passes, seat selection, ancillary upsell, and real-time flight status notifications for passengers. Self-service capabilities reduce airport counter queues and the associated labor costs while improving passenger satisfaction scores. The platform integrates with Global Distribution Systems (GDS) and Departure Control Systems (DCS) to maintain accurate booking and load data.
Manages scheduled and unscheduled maintenance tasks, airworthiness directives, component life tracking, and workshop work orders in compliance with EASA or FAA regulatory frameworks. Technicians access work packages on tablets, log labor times, and record part consumption directly against work orders, eliminating paper logbooks and transcription errors. Management dashboards show fleet airworthiness status, upcoming heavy maintenance events, and parts stock levels at a glance.
Optimizes the allocation of gates, ground handling equipment, check-in desks, baggage belts, and staff across the airport operation throughout the flight day. Dynamic reallocation recommendations respond automatically to flight delays or early arrivals to prevent resource conflicts and minimize turnaround times. Integration with airline DCS and ground handler systems ensures all parties are working from the same operational picture.
Automates the complex task of building crew pairings and rosters that satisfy operational requirements while complying with aviation authority rest and duty time regulations. The system handles crew qualification tracking, training record management, and leave planning alongside operational scheduling. Crew self-service portals allow staff to view rosters, bid for preferred pairings, and submit leave requests without routing everything through operations administration.
Real-time platform for managing flight dispatch, crew assignments, aircraft tracking, and delay management.
Direct-channel booking platform with seat maps, ancillary upsell, and payment processing for airline websites and apps.
Manages passenger check-in, seat assignment, boarding pass issuance, and load control for departing flights.
Tracks aircraft maintenance tasks, component life limits, regulatory compliance, and workshop work orders.
Optimizes gate, ground equipment, and staff assignments across the airport operation in real time.
Automates crew pairing, rostering, qualification tracking, and self-service crew portal functions.
Automates proactive passenger communications and rebooking options during irregular operations.
Coordinates turnaround tasks across fueling, catering, cleaning, baggage, and marshalling services.
Integrated operations platforms give controllers a complete, real-time view of all potential delay contributors — maintenance holds, crew duty limits, gate conflicts, late-connecting passengers — before they cascade into disruptions. Automated conflict detection and resource reallocation reduce the average delay per irregular operation significantly. Airlines and airports that have implemented integrated operations centers consistently report lower delay rates and reduced disruption recovery costs.
Digital maintenance management eliminates the paper-based processes that lead to missed compliance actions, duplicate work orders, and parts availability surprises. Component life tracking and automated airworthiness directive management ensure nothing falls through the cracks in complex regulatory compliance environments. Better maintenance planning also reduces AOG (Aircraft on Ground) events, which are among the most expensive disruptions an airline can experience.
Seamless digital check-in, real-time flight status updates, and proactive rebooking tools during disruptions transform the passenger experience from stressful to manageable. Personalized upsell of seats, bags, meals, and lounge access through digital channels generates significant ancillary revenue with minimal labor cost. Passengers who receive proactive communications during disruptions report substantially higher satisfaction scores than those who discover problems at the airport.
Aviation operates under some of the most stringent regulatory requirements of any industry, covering crew duty times, maintenance certifications, airworthiness directives, and data retention. Custom software can enforce compliance rules in real time — preventing a crew pairing that violates rest requirements from being published, or flagging a maintenance task that is overdue — reducing the risk of regulatory findings. Digital records also dramatically accelerate audit responses compared to paper-based systems.
Historical performance data from integrated operations systems enables evidence-based decisions about route profitability, fleet assignment, maintenance scheduling, and ground handling capacity. Planners can model the impact of schedule changes or fleet additions on operational performance before committing to them. This planning capability becomes particularly valuable when managing seasonal demand variations or responding to network disruptions.
