Air Canada is setting a powerful benchmark in safety innovation for airlines, by using Sisense to build and implement new innovations to improve employee and passenger safety
Sisense, the leading AI-driven platform for infusing analytics everywhere, announced how its customer, Shaul Shalev, Air Canada’s Safety Analytics & Innovation Manager, is delivering insights to its frontline workers with the use of the Sisense Fusion Platform.
Air Canada developed these innovations due to the company’s desire to deliver crucial and personalised data to its employees and frontline workers. Air Canada turned to Sisense Fusion Platform, which provides analytics in context of where users are spending their time and delivers personalised data that alerts users of what they need to know and where to take action.
By leveraging Sisense, Air Canada was able to build powerful proofs of concept, such as pushing actionable data to their end users (both frontline employees and executives), enabling them to look at highly important data that deals with their day-to-day duties to ultimately improve and add insights into all aspects of safety across Air Canada.
“The extensibility that the Sisense Fusion Platform offers is the major differentiator from all the other big players who have BI tools. We would not have been able to develop the game-changing analytics innovation we have today without having this platform to build on,” Shaul Shalev, Safety Analytics & Innovation Manager at Air Canada said.
“The simplicity of being able to take a complex database and transfer that into a more nimble and better managed data model so we could experiment and develop infused analytics were paramount.”
“Air Canada’s desire to push personalised data to different groups of people is very aligned with Sisense’s view on the world where analytics need to be in context, personalised and delivered to where people are,” Ashley Kramer, Chief Product and Chief Marketing Officer said. “We believe the future of analytics and BI will be consumer-focused, dynamic and embedded in applications and workflows.”
Air Canada is Canada’s largest international and domestic airline, serving more than 50 million passengers every year.
