Unisys Wins Contract From Lufthansa Systems
Posted on: Monday, 12 September 2005, 00:00 CDT
UNISYS Corp has announced that it has been awarded a contract by Lufthansa Systems, a leading IT service provider for the airline and aviation industry worldwide.
Under this agreement, Unisys will provide its Airline Core Systems Solutions (AirCore), designed to help airlines streamline reservation processes, reduce costs, enhance customer services and increase sales, to Lufthansa Systems for its more than 40 airline customers globally.
AirCore will support Lufthansa Systems' Future Airline Core Environment (Face) programs. Face will provide airlines with a broad spectrum of passenger services solutions, including expanded electronic distribution channels, which will enable a reduction in an airline's distribution costs.
Airlines will also be able to swiftly respond to changing market conditions and provide services based on passengers' personal needs.
AirCore will be Lufthansa Systems' third-generation reservation solution from Unisys, and the new agreement builds on the companies' 30-plus-year relationship.
AirCore is built based on the Unisys 3D Visible Enterprise strategy, which is designed to give clients greater visibility into the cause-and- effect relationships among strategy, processes, applications and infrastructure.
This allows a company to understand how future technology changes will likely affect its business. This level of visibility enables companies to move one step closer to being 3D Visible Enterprises - organisations able to see the impact of their business decisions before they are made.
"Unisys and Lufthansa Systems have enjoyed a long and successful co- operative relationship. For our next-generation passenger airline solution Face, we are delighted to welcome Unisys as our leading technology partner," said Lufthansa Systems' chief executive officer Wolfgang Gohde.
"In utilising Unisys AirCore, Lufthansa Systems provides the industry with the most advanced solution designed to cover all airline business models from low cost to full alliance functionality."
