Comments<br />

� Daily check of equipment quantities is done manually <strong>and</strong> is time consuming.<br />

� Airlines have little control over their trolleys, carriers <strong>and</strong> other equipment.<br />

Questions<br />

Main issues Impacts / Measurable information to share<br />

� In practice, it seems the inventory<br />

control is not performed, especially<br />

when Catering Facility serves lots of<br />

different airline customers with daily<br />

flights<br />

Needs Added value<br />

� Calculate automatically the required<br />

number of trolleys on a daily basis by<br />

type, by Airline<br />

� Simulate / plan / control<br />

real trolley stock<br />

by type, by Airline<br />

� Automate trolley inventory control<br />

Inspect<br />

Trolleys<br />

Inspect<br />

Trolleys<br />

� Difficulty to get visibility on real equipment<br />

needs<br />

� Reduce over stock to an optimized level<br />

(cost savings)<br />

� Reduce labour costs<br />

� Know in real time what<br />

each Catering<br />

Facility has in stock<br />
