1. Addressing Technical System Failures


Challenge

Airline systems such as reservation platforms, baggage handling systems, and flight management systems

require near-perfect uptime. Failures can result in flight delays, operational bottlenecks, and revenue loss.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Real-Time Incident Management: Automatically detect and escalate system outages using integration with monitoring tools like Prometheus or Datadog.
  • On-Call Scheduling: Ensure 24/7 availability of IT teams with intelligent on-call scheduling across global teams.
  • Incident Auto-Remediation: For recurring issues like server overloads or API failures, trigger automated scripts to restart services or scale resources without human intervention.
  • Communication Channels: Notify teams and stakeholders via Mobile App (Android, iPhone), Email, SMS, Phone Calls in over 30+ languages across 200+ countries, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.


Example

An airline’s booking system encounters high load during peak holiday seasons. Callgoose SQIBS

integrates with AWS CloudWatch to monitor traffic spikes. When predefined thresholds are breached, an

automation workflow is triggered to add instances to the load balancer and notify on-call engineers.


2. Mitigating Flight Delays Due to IT Glitches


Challenge

IT issues such as ground communication systems downtime or check-in system failures can delay flights,

leading to cascading schedule disruptions and passenger dissatisfaction.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Event-Driven Automation: Monitor critical systems and trigger predefined workflows to resolve common issues, such as re-establishing network connectivity.
  • Seamless Notifications: Notify ground staff, pilots, and IT teams through Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams, ensuring swift communication.


Example

During a ground communication system outage, Callgoose SQIBS detects the issue via integrated

monitoring tools and automatically triggers a workflow to restart the affected services. Notifications are

sent to all stakeholders, and progress is tracked in real-time on Slack.


3. Enhancing Passenger Experience During Service Interruptions


Challenge

Unplanned disruptions can lead to miscommunication with passengers, resulting in frustration and

negative brand perception.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Process Automation: Enable real-time updates to passengers via integration with customer communication platforms.
  • Incident Response: Coordinate between IT and customer service teams to resolve incidents faster.
  • Multi-Channel Notifications: Use Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams to keep passengers informed globally in over 30+ languages.


Example

If a baggage handling system fails, Callgoose SQIBS triggers a workflow to notify passengers of potential

delays via SMS and email in their preferred language. Concurrently, IT teams are alerted to resolve the

issue, ensuring minimal service disruption.


4. Automation of Routine IT Requests


Challenge

Airline IT departments are inundated with routine requests, such as resetting credentials, granting system

access, or updating configurations.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • IT Request Automation: Automate frequent IT requests through self-service portals and predefined workflows.
  • Runbook Automation: Execute pre-approved playbooks for tasks like password resets or user provisioning.


Example

An employee requests access to a flight management system. Through Callgoose SQIBS’s self-service

portal, they fill out a request form, which automatically triggers a workflow to provision access after

approvals.


5. Proactive Maintenance of Aircraft Systems


Challenge

Aircraft maintenance delays caused by missed alerts or inadequate monitoring can disrupt flight schedules

and compromise safety.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS


  • Real-Time Alerts: Integrate with IoT sensors on aircraft to monitor components and systems in real-time.
  • Advanced Filtering: Configure alerts to trigger incidents only for critical issues, reducing noise for the maintenance team.
  • Automation Workflows: Automatically schedule maintenance tasks and notify technicians via Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams based on incident priority.


Example

During a routine flight, an IoT sensor detects abnormal engine vibrations. Callgoose SQIBS filters the

alert and triggers an incident, notifying the maintenance team while pre-scheduling an inspection at the

next airport.


6. Optimizing Ground Operations


Challenge

Ground operations including fueling, catering, and boarding—require precise coordination. Delays in

one task can ripple through the entire schedule.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Process Automation: Automate task assignments and tracking for ground staff.
  • Real-Time Communication: Keep all teams informed of updates and delays through Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.
  • Mobile Notifications: Ensure staff receive instant updates regardless of their location.


Example

If catering services are delayed, Callgoose SQIBS sends updates to the ground crew and adjusts task

schedules dynamically to minimize further disruptions.


7. Handling Cybersecurity Incidents


Challenge

Airlines are prime targets for cyberattacks, and delays in responding to threats can lead to data breaches

and operational disruptions.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Real-Time Incident Management: Detect and escalate potential threats using SIEM tool integrations.
  • Incident Response Automation: Trigger predefined playbooks to isolate affected systems and mitigate threats.
  • Seamless Alerts: Notify cybersecurity teams via Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.


Example

A potential DDoS attack is detected on the airline’s reservation system. Callgoose SQIBS triggers a

workflow to block malicious IPs while notifying the cybersecurity team for further investigation.


8. Streamlining Crew Scheduling


Challenge

Crew scheduling changes due to last-minute cancellations or delays can disrupt operations and impact

compliance with regulations.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

On-Call Scheduling: Dynamically assign crew based on availability and regulatory requirements.

Integrated Notifications: Notify crew members instantly via Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.


Example

If a pilot is unable to report for duty, Callgoose SQIBS notifies the next available pilot and updates the

scheduling system automatically.

Challenge

Delays in cargo handling or miscommunication can lead to lost revenue and customer dissatisfaction.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Process Automation: Automate cargo tracking and incident management workflows.
  • Real-Time Notifications: Alert cargo teams and customers about delays or updates via Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.


Example

If a cargo shipment is delayed, Callgoose SQIBS notifies the logistics team and updates customers in real

time, ensuring transparency.


10. Managing Severe Weather Disruptions


Challenge

Weather-related disruptions can cause widespread delays and cancellations, requiring rapid coordination.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Event-Driven Automation: Automate flight rescheduling and passenger notifications based on weather alerts.
  • Multi-Channel Communication: Keep teams and passengers informed via Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.


Example

When severe weather conditions force a flight cancellation, Callgoose SQIBS triggers a workflow to

rebook passengers and notify all stakeholders instantly.


11. Enhancing Regulatory Compliance


Challenge

Meeting regulatory requirements in areas like safety, cybersecurity, and passenger rights requires

meticulous tracking and reporting.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Runbook Automation: Execute workflows to generate compliance reports automatically.
  • Real-Time Alerts: Notify compliance teams of potential violations via Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.


Example

Callgoose SQIBS generates real-time incident reports for aviation regulators when a technical issue

impacts flight safety.


12. Reducing Communication Gaps Across Teams


Challenge

Large, distributed teams often face delays due to miscommunication or information silos.


Solution with Callgoose SQIBS

  • Integrated Communication: Use Mobile App, Email, SMS, Phone Calls, Slack, and Microsoft Teams to centralize communication.
