Air India has announced that it has partnered with a UK-based software company Ideagen to ‘enhance’ end-to-end safety management across operations. As part of the collaboration, the airline will deploy Coruson, Ideagen’s enterprise cloud software application.
The Coruson software will help Air India monitor in-flight incidents in real-time. The key features of the software include real-time intelligence, reporting, and status of in-flight incidents. The software rollout is expected to start from May 1, 2023.

Coruson will help automate critical processes, reduce paperwork
Coruson aims to eliminate most of the paperwork involved in sharing critical information with key personnel and authorities. Ideagen’s safety data software application transfers such information automatically, aimed at saving crucial time and resulting in shorter turnaround time.
‘Another step in the right direction’
“Air India has always been according top priority to safety of its passengers and crew, and this tie-up with Coruson is another step in that direction,” said the company in a statement. Reflecting on its latest tool, the airlines said, “Ideagen software covers all aspects of risk, giving the airline full visibility of safety data from maintenance of the aircraft through to cabin crew checks on board. It will provide Air India complete visibility across the airline’s entire organisation, allowing it to access the latest data and use this to spot and mitigate potential risks, thereby enhancing safety of operations.”

Talking about the safety upgrade, Air India’s head of safety Henry Donohoe said, “We are going for a significant and substantial upgrade of our existing systems and processes to ensure seamless flow of intelligence and data on a real time basis. Coruson is trusted by the aviation industry globally for risk mitigation, auditing and training. Its induction will go a long way in enhancing our capabilities for the safety and well-being of our passengers and crew, particularly at a time when Air India is rapidly expanding its network on both national and international routes.”
