Other existing CMS options that run airlines today, also without such catastrophic failures in their history:
AIMS
Lufthansa Systems
Jeppesen CTE

New CMS suites that have been developed in the past 5 years:
NavBlue CMS
ELP CMS
CAE Crew Manager


There are off the shelf solutions available in the market that could have been implemented at relatively low cost in a 12-24 month project plan at any point over the past half decade. The decision to NOT make a move should be as scrutinized as Ed spending hundreds of millions in capital on stock buybacks and pushing pilots with time left on the clock out the door during the worst labor contraction potentially in our industry’s history.
