For Commsoft, this represents an exciting new addition to the global OASES community which currently consists of more than 130 aviation operations in over 55 different countries, from national and regional carriers to business aviation and charter operators to cargo specialists, leasing companies and independent MROs.

Combining a technical sophistication with an intuitive user interface, OASES is structured in a modular format to provide maximum flexibility and scalability. Jet-Ops has selected the Core, Airworthiness, Planning, Materials, Line Maintenance Control and Production modules. Work has already begun on both the server procurement process and data assessment with training and on-site implementation set to start in early May.

Nick Godwin, Commsoft’s Managing Director, commented: “Not only is this our third major contract win in 2019, it also represents a first for us in terms of supporting seaplanes. We’re delighted that Jet-Ops has chosen OASES and we’re looking forward to working closely with them to ensure an early and successful implementation.”
