SAFAIR User and Implementation Experience

 

We asked the guys at Safair to give us an insight into their user and implementation experience.  This is what they said :-

 

What system you were using before you choose SAM?  AMASIS

 

AMASIS (Aircraft Maintenance And Spares Information System) is the turn-key integrated solution to manage aircraft maintenance and related logistics. Its graphical user interface & modular set up build-up a complete and consistent maintenance information system.

 

Is there any particular reason for leaving the old system?

 

–  A new AMASIS system and support would have been too expensive. 

 

Comment

 

It takes a huge effort within an organisation to move from one fully implemented MRO system to another one, that Safair choose to do this is a testament to the both the cost and the effectiveness of   SAM (System Aircraft Management)

 

Why did you chose SAM?

 

– Through the recommendation of Capterra Sofware Search and by comparison with other software

 

Comment

 

To implement an MRO software system is a huge undertaking, it is important to undertake due diligence and to be satisfied that the choices you are making are driven by sound business reasons. 

 

How was the SAM implementation and training process? Is there anything  which went very well and exceeded your expectations?

 

– Support and Training was outstanding.

 

Comment

 

System Aircraft Management is driven by the desire to satisfy customers and to deliver an effective and supportive service the only way to show this is by proof. The support staff at SAM does this on a daily basis.  

 

How did the Data migration from the old System to SAM went through? Can you share with us what were your expectation and concerns in regards with Data migration before the implementation? 

 

– The Data migration went very smoothly, Amasis Data was exported into Excel spreadsheets and the spreadsheets could be easily imported into SAM.

 

Are you happy with the process so far?

 

– Yes everything has gone really well.

 

Comment

 

SAM software is designed not just to be easy to work with but the process of building data and loading the system is very user friendly and easy to achieve. If required the tech support staff can assist you in this activity. 

 

Can we get a general quotation about the product from some of your Managers?

 

–  The general consensus across the business is that SAM is both user friendly and easy to understand.

 

 

Do you have plans of expanding the user accounts in near future?

 

– Yes, I think we will at least reach the 10 user license by the end of the year.

 

Comment

 

SAM software licensing process has been carefully thought out to ensure the maximum cost effectiveness for the customer. By this way we will achieve not just accelerated growth but success in the market place.

 

 

What is your current fleet size using SAM Software?

 

– Currently we are using SAM for our fleet of 8 Hercules but the plan is to consider SAM as the universal software for our operation.

 

Please feel free to share with us something which is not mentioned in our questions but you think that you need to share. 

 

– Without doubt the support group is going the extra mile to satisfy the customer, we are very grateful for the support of  Airline Software Applications

 

What does Airline Software Applications have to Say ?

 

– SAM (System Aircraft Management) is an Easy-to-Use Software suite, making aircraft maintenance time saving and cost effective and provides aircraft operators and MRO’s with all functionality needed to fully manage their Aircraft, Components, AD notes & Service Bulletins, Maintenance Tasks, Work Orders, Sales and Invoicing, Inquiry and Purchase and Reliability reporting. SAM's modularised structure allows you to include only the functionality needed by selecting the corresponding SAM modules. In all settings, SAM is the optimal tool to comply with the rules set forth by aviation authorities (EU OPS 1, JAR OPS 3, EASA Part 145/M Subpart F, G). 

In addition to being easy-to-use and cost-efficient, SAM is structurally integrated. This means you can control an extensive range of maintenance planning and production functions as well as inventory, purchasing and invoicing functions, all with one system. AND, all SAM modules are inter-connected sharing their information.

 

Comment

 

Sofema Aviation Services is proud to support SAM exactly because of the reasons identified above. The program is an ideal and cost effective solution for Airline and MRO.
