Periods with a forecasted
shortage of crew for a specific crew group will be highlighted. The
forecast will be calculated using the best accessible data (crew pairings
if that is available, otherwise the flight schedule or the fleet structure).
Pre-assigned crew activities, such as meetings and already planned
training, can be imported from the rostering system. Future requirements,
such as vacation, days off, stand-by blocks, new training and more
can be estimated or introduced explicitly. It is possible to manually
adjust individual activities or to simulate a general behaviour by
using different distribution formulas. |

By analyzing future flight
schedules and fleet structures the need for crew transitions is calculated.
Crew bids on equipment type and preferred transition periods can be
entered in a specific Internet crew bidding system. The bid awarding
process can be controlled with a wide set of built-in transition rules.
Rules and parameters can be manipulated by the user in order to evaluate
different scenarios. If the resource requirements for each crew group
can wary slightly it is possible to let the system suggest various
transition scenarios. This can make it possible to find a transition
scheme with a similar resource availability, but with a lower transition
cost. |

In order to implement
the movement planning, the training of each individual crew member
must be scheduled. A big set of training templates defining the exact
training content for various transition groups, or for crew with different
level of experience, can be created. The training can be distributed
over a long period in order to use a low number of training resources,
or over a short period in order to meet a close deadline. |

To facilitate analysis
a comprehensive range of reports and analysis views are available.
When the mid-term and long-term supply and demand is balanced it is
possible to send information on awarded transition bids, required
training tasks, detailed amount of course days, simulators to the
plan, etc to surrounding systems.
