ASQS and LHIND develop AI Co-Validator

Vienna/Norderstedt, March 25, 2024 – ASQS, a leading global provider of integrated aviation Quality and Safety Management solutions, has developed a new IT solution in cooperation with Lufthansa Industry Solutions - the iQSMS AI Co-Validator. The AI Co-Validator leverages ASQS' expertise in aviation safety and risk management and Lufthansa Industry Solutions' expertise in IT consulting and system integration to optimize the processing of reports using artificial intelligence to significantly increase the efficiency and productivity of aviation companies.

Globally renowned for its web-based and integrated quality and safety management system iQSMS, ASQS specializes in providing the aviation industry with innovative solutions to support their daily work processes, reduce operational costs and increase efficiency.

“The partnership between ASQS and LHIND marks an important milestone in providing advanced solutions to the aviation industry," says Amir Farajollahzadeh, Business Director MRO, Hospitality & SAP at Lufthansa Industry Solutions. "By utilizing the latest technologies and AI capabilities, the safety and efficiency of flight operations will be further enhanced. Users of iQSMS can benefit from the collaboration by saving time and resources while ensuring higher data quality and compliance."

The sophisticated tool examines the content of incoming reports and suggests the best matching customer-specific event classification. If the classification suggested by the AI matches the reporter's selection and either reaches the highest AI confidence score or exceeds the predefined minimum confidence score for the specific event classification, the report is automatically approved.

We believe this feature will drastically improve efficiency in report processing, allowing companies to focus more on their core safety tasks.

By approving incoming reports on a 24/7/365 basis in the iQSMS Reporting Module, the Ai Co-Validator ensures that important safety information is consistently forwarded to the relevant departments, not just during office hours but around the clock. The sophisticated tool thus reduces time-consuming repetitive and routine tasks and frees up resources for more critical tasks, increasing the company's overall safety and effectiveness levels. One of the main advantages of the model also lies in its objectivity. The AI model guarantees a uniform report analysis and eliminates possible individual subjectivities. The model is optimized on the basis of the taxonomy used by the operator, thus ensuring an objective report analysis and evaluation.

"We are very excited to add the AI Co-Validator to our suite of solutions," says Günther Schindl, Co-Founder and CEO of ASQS. "We believe this feature will drastically improve efficiency in report processing, allowing companies to focus more on their core safety tasks. We are proud to be pioneering this field together with Lufthansa Industry Solutions and look forward to a successful long-term partnership. “
