Navtech Inc., a leader in flight operations software and services, announced a new partnership with the Institutes for Behavior Resources, Inc. (IBR) and its SAFTE-FAST fatigue risk assessment system to provide an integrated set of analysis tools with Navtech’s Pairing Optimizer and automatic rostering with Navtech’s Preferential Bidding System (PBS ). Combined, these crew scheduling tools provide airlines with advanced fatigue mitigation support for Fatigue Risk Management Systems (FRMS).
IBR provides services and conducts innovative research aimed at extending the benefits of behavioral science to a wide variety of human challenges including human performance, behavioral analysis and safety initiatives. “With IBR as a partner, Navtech strengthens its Crew products with a proven and robust Fatigue Risk Management tool. The IBR system is a natural fit with Navtech’s applications as it will allow airlines to conduct enhanced analysis of key alertness variables for crew planning and scheduling” said Robert Mora, Director Product Management, Crew.
“Fatigue analysis software provides an important decision aid for forecasting fatigue under scheduling policies and taking proactive steps to reduce or eliminate fatigue before it compromises safety. The marriage of SAFTE-FAST with Navtech Crew products provides airlines with the best fatigue assessment tools with no additional technical overhead and 24/7 software support.”, said Dr. Steven Hursh, IBR President, inventor of the SAFTE (Sleep, Activity, Fatigue and Task Effectiveness) model and co-inventor of FAST (Fatigue Avoidance Scheduling Tool).
Navtech’s crew planning products are known for their ability to balance the needs of Crews with the goals of airlines. Navtech Crew Planning products continually evolve to capture technological innovations and the latest in scientific thinking.
