Pulsar Informatics' Comprehensive Fatigue Risk Management Program Selected by Air Canada

SEATTLE, January 13, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Global fatigue risk management technology leader Pulsar Informatics today announced it has signed a three-year agreement with Air Canada Maintenance to implement Pulsar's comprehensive Fatigue Risk Management Program (FRMP) for Air Canada's aircraft maintenance operations in Canada. The project has already commenced and will ramp up over a period of 18 months and brings significant enhancements to existing programs.

Daniel Mollicone, PhD, CEO of Pulsar Informatics, said, "The upheaval caused by the pandemic brought into focus the need for a comprehensive and data-driven fatigue risk management program to enhance mitigations that ensure critical work is performed reliably and safely. Air Canada already has a strong safety culture. Against this backdrop, we believe we can make a significant positive impact in managing risk and improving overall performance in Air Canada's aircraft maintenance operations." 

"We are excited to be the first maintenance organization in the industry to embark on this journey with Pulsar Informatics," said Tony Lowery, Vice President-Maintenance at Air Canada. "Implementing an FRMP for Air Canada Maintenance aligns with and will further reinforce our Flight Path behaviour of Safety First, Always and 'Care and Class' for our people."

After years of research and development, Pulsar Informatics is releasing the next generation of its flagship software suite Fatigue Meter. The new capabilities of this technology will provide aircraft maintenance organizations with more visibility and control over factors that may contribute to fatigue risk.
