Pentafox Digitizes Ground Operations Asset Management with the AMS Platform for Airline Operations
See how Pentafox digitized procurement processes to improve control and transparency.
Background & Story
Ground operations assets are critical for safe and efficient airline operations. Previously, asset tracking, inspections, and maintenance were managed manually using registers, Excel sheets, and emails. This led to poor visibility across stations, missed service schedules, and limited audit traceability. AMS was introduced as a centralized digital platform to address these challenges. It enables teams to manage asset inventory, inspections, servicing schedules, and maintenance history from a single source—improving control, compliance, and operational efficiency.
Technology Stack
Mission
Ensure accurate tracking of all ground operations assets
Enable timely inspections and preventive maintenance

Challenges
Asset details and inspection logs maintained manually
No automated alerts for upcoming or overdue servicing
Assets distributed across multiple stations without a centralized view
Inspectors needed a simple, mobile-friendly way to record inspections in the field
Solution & Strategy
AMS introduced a digital, field-ready solution
Centralized web platform for inventory, dashboards, reporting, and administration

Collaboration
The system was developed in close collaboration with ground operations teams, maintenance staff, and field inspectors to reflect real-world working conditions. Practical usage scenarios shaped the mobile workflows, offline functionality, and dashboard design, while continuous feedback ensured the platform stayed aligned with daily operational needs across all stations.
