ARINC Managed Services Breakthrough Gives Airport IT Systems Major, Localized Service Desk Capabilities



Annapolis, MD, USA, September 11, 2007-ARINC Managed Services (AMS) today introduced an enhancement to its Service Desk solution for airports which provides new capabilities and delivers many benefits of a much larger and more costly traditional service desk for large and small airports alike.

The AMS breakthrough permits both expedited ticketing and custom call addressing that can be tailored to meet specific local airport requirements. The system captures information from a caller and automatically creates and dispatches a trouble ticket, while routing the call simultaneously to a subject matter expert for first-level call resolution.

"Unlike other approaches to ticket automation, this new solution from AMS allows custom addressing both locally and anywhere in the world," states Jim L. Martin, ARINC Managed Services' Senior Director. "Many world airport authorities want their service calls routed in a specific way locally and handled in a local language. This system is their solution."

AMS is currently installing its new system for two customer airports in Asia that have highly specific call-routing requirements.

AMS customer airports can now create a custom-branded user experience in their local language, with custom speech prompts and skills-based routing. This ensures all calls are directed to the right AMS resource, either on-site or anywhere in the world, for rapid support and first call resolution. In addition, problem management reporting and analysis capabilities are extended throughout the incident management process.

This dramatic advance in automated response and resolution is made possible by extending the AMS airport-specific Business Process Management (BPM) Service Desk module. Unlike limited solutions, it allows continuous monitoring of business rules and real-time access to data, including progress on trouble tickets.
