Cost optimization – aviation security
In a market hugely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic on top of shrinking prices and increased competition, entities have to look for new ways to operate efficiently, in the same time in order to maintain the highest level of their service – without compromising on aviation security.
This article highlights how new technologies can help aviation related entities to achieve greater efficiency and reduce cost, but also, how embracing the concept of digital transformation in the field of aviation security training can allow them to meet the increasing expectations from workers, customers and stakeholders.
The threat of terrorist attack on civil aviation, especially as a result of the 9/11 attacks, has made the system focus on intense security efforts. However, in the same time it is difficult to determine whether the benefits compensate their cost involved. Well-organized aviation security approach, with a great focus on getting the most optimised security solutions for the least cost, should be the priority in an era of budget austerity and general market struggle, we are dealing with at present.
Moreover, cannot be unnoticed that since last year, aviation has been facing an era of unprecedented complexity for its business. At this writing, the Coronavirus pandemic has affected over 123 million people in 219 counties and territories around the world. These incomparable numbers make the ongoing crisis the most challenging in the modern history. And as for the time being, unfortunately an optimistic endpoint is still difficult to see. In this state of the great uncertainty, there is no golden rule for a successful recovery in general. On top of it, there is no simple solution especially for a business so sensitive and so expensive, like the aviation is. However, to advance with an optimum response, various scenarios, including the one where operational constraint are even tougher, need to be contemplated. The creation of an efficient resilience will hinge on two core aspects, i.e., external factors, like the expected upcoming world-wide market collapse and other factors, ones which are within decision-makers’ influence. Focusing on the reachable aspects narrows to a fundamental question which underlies the provision of aviation security – how to best allocate limited resources in order to reduce the probability of an attack targeting civil aviation without increasing related expenses, additionally eliminating waste time, making a better use of resources, and improving the bottom-line of the business.
