The CASR platform’s implementation in any CAA will contribute to the development and achievement of the objectives to be in compliance with international supervisory authorities like ICAO.

Main features of CASR for any Civil Aviation Authority (CAA):

One of the most important benefits associated with the implementation of the CASR is the systematization and standardization of procedures and workflows within the various departments and the sharing of information between them. By implementing a technology solution capable of managing profiles, differentiated responsibilities of different layers of access, users adapt to this new reality, which provides organizational efficiency gain of CAA.

Nowadays it is consensual that it is a priority to create data storage mechanisms and ensure the maximum quality of existing data. Using CASR, any CAA can make supported decisions in the medium / long term, which allows gaining years of evolution and avoiding many of the problems in other countries that have taken less structural decisions.

Another important basic feature of CASR platform is the ease of access to  information with Google like search engines, that creates access to any information or process that has been introduced into the system. This access either to data or processes or functionality is tightly controlled by a powerful access control system that only allows authorized personnel to intervene in the system, with different profiles for each role / responsibility.

With the platform installation, CAA will have the ability to generate documents automatically, which is an improvement for speed and security. By having information on a software platform with rules and profiles of data access, security is guaranteed.

One of the most relevant aspects to security is the ability to know with accuracy who did what and when. This is one of the features of CASR solution. It allows you to identify the authors of each change or specific operation.

A large benefit from the usage of a database is that information can be explored for the benefit of a better knowledge of reality, with obvious advantages for the organization. CASR enables an integrated analysis of all the information and creates graphics and statistical data, possible in real time. Information can be explored in any desired format: it is possible to model the kind of report we want to build, dynamically.

Implicitly CASR is a powerful tool to help users performing their daily tasks. The platform is not limited to data management. It also creates rules and validations to ensure the quality level of data and generated documents.

Key Benefits

When making the decision to implement a single system throughout the authority, any CAA is taking a structural decision and creating bases for knowledge. In medium and long term there will be implementations of services and features that otherwise would take much longer to happen. This table is a short summary of the key features of CASR platform where we highlight the benefits and the differentiating potential of each)

Centralized Solution

Key Benefits
All information is in one Place; Easy to access and share information; Less interoperability costs.
Major differentiator
Current solutions are focused in some areas, not covering all CAA departments.

Documentation Repository

Key Benefits
Paper free solution; Easy to consult.
Major differentiator
Most solutions don´t use this concept as core of the application.

Infrastructure Flexibility

Key Benefits
Compatible with both opensource and branding solutions; Less infrastructure changes.
Major differentiator
Current solution is compliant with any technology.

Business Process Definition

Key Benefits
Workflows adaptable are adaptable and customized to the CAA requirements.
Major differentiator
Majority of players use a rigid and static workflow solutions.

RAD Technology (Rapid Application Development)

Key Benefits
Easy to customize software applications.
Major differentiator
Majority of players use bespoke code, with expected great problems in Apps updating.

eServices

Key Benefits
Reduced HR needs; Improved data quality; Accessible from anywhere.
Major differentiator
Current solutions don´t have eService as a core Feature – implies development.
