BUSINESS CASE
Atlas for Air Transportation
Take your business higher
Driven by speed and safety, interactions within the air transportation industry happen on a global scale and follow strict regulations.
The Atlas blockchain enables the elimination of process, data, and records fragmentation across your chain of intermediaries.
Synchronize digitally through Sky Contracts and combine IoT, Mobile, EDI, and document feeds to track assets, mitigate disruptions, and reduce friction overall.
So you can easily implement your most important use cases, Atlas provides the best features of Ethereum, Fabric, Corda, and middleware right out of the box.
“Atlas is the perfect blockchain platform to enable IoT in multi-enterprise use cases and leverage sensor feeds in ecosystem processes. It’s a pleasure to collaborate with Sky Republic’s team on multiple Air Transportation projects where the combined use of Blockchain and IoT solve recurrent business pains, such as the end-to-end tracking of containers, shipments, and aircraft parts.”
—Pierre-Jean Tiné, BeON, Co-founder & Director
Atlas takes flight
Working closely with SITA and its partners, Sky Republic is engineering solutions on top of the Atlas platform to bring the power of network consensus to core Air Transportation processes.
Together, we are co-developing Smart ULD, a revolutionary solution for airlines and freight forwarders that tracks the custody chain of Unit Load Devices (ULDs) and their shipments and distributes documents and business events to automate Air Freight and provide end-to-end visibility of every asset.
“We are thrilled with our partnership with Sky Republic and are working together to build multiple solutions powered by Atlas for the Air Cargo industry. Atlas benefited from Sky Republic’s unique expertise in blockchain and middleware. It is the perfect platform to track assets like ULDs or shipments and digitize further current processes combining EDI, Mobile, IoT, and Artificial Intelligence.”
—Arnaud Brolly, Digital Solutions & Blockchain Lead at SITA
