Smart4Aviation to Deliver Weight and Balance and Load Planning Solution for easyJet

Smart4Aviation, a global provider of innovative airline IT solutions, has signed an agreement on 15th of December 2025 with long-standing customer easyJet to deliver Smart LOAD, its fully exception-based weight & balance and load planning solution. The implementation marks a key milestone in easyJet’s journey towards centralized, highly automated load control operations.

easyJet and Smart4Aviation share a well-established partnership, with the airline already leveraging Smart4Aviation’s mobile solutions for Pilots and Cabin Crew, supported by the advanced communication and alerting module Smart COMM. Building on this proven ecosystem, easyJet’s decision to adopt Smart LOAD was a natural progression aligned with its operational efficiency strategy.

By centralizing load planning on Smart4Aviation’s integrated platform, easyJet aims to unlock tangible operational benefits, including enhanced automation, fuel savings, improved on-time performance, and significantly reduced aircraft turnaround times. A key driver is the minimization of manual effort required from flight crews during Load and Fuel Confirmation processes, enabling greater focus on core operational priorities.

Smart LOAD is a state-of-the-art, exception-based weight & balance solution designed to automate and optimize load planning, engaging operational staff only when deviations or irregularities occur. The system supports both centralized and decentralized load control models and is suitable for airlines as well as ground handling organizations. Highly configurable, Smart LOAD adapts to diverse operational workflows and stakeholder requirements, covering not only core load planning but also adjacent processes such as flight planning, baggage and cargo planning, fuel loading, passenger reconciliation, and the captain’s final approval. The solution fully complies with international air traffic regulations and airline-specific business rules, including cargo compatibility, Dangerous Goods handling, and MEL item processing.

Smart LOAD also includes a dedicated mobile extension available on EFB, already in use by easyJet pilots, eliminating the need to introduce additional cockpit applications. In addition, Smart4Aviation provides a web-based mobile application built on Progressive Web Application (PWA) technology, enabling access across a wide range of mobile devices and platforms. This mobile capability is designed to streamline workflows for ramp agents and other turnaround stakeholders who do not have access to desktop systems or EFBs.

We are looking forward to working closely with easyJet in the coming months to deliver the expected operational benefits and to support their transition to centralized load control. We truly appreciate the trust placed in Smart4Aviation” said Maciej Migacz, Director of Sales & Marketing at Smart4Aviation.

Smart LOAD has already demonstrated its efficiency and measurable value across multiple airlines worldwide, and we are confident it will significantly enhance easyJet’s loading operations” added Volodymyr Pysaruk, Product Owner of Smart LOAD.

We are delighted that our fully integrated platform is able to connect all operational touchpoints at easyJet. Seamless integration across modules will ensure smooth weight & balance and load planning operations, fully aligned with the applications already used on easyJet flight decks across Europe” concluded Shaun Landy, Product Owner of Smart4Aviation’s Mobile Applications and Key Account Manager.

OpenAirlines ISO/IEC 27001 full scope certification

OpenAirlines is proud to announce its ISO 27001 certification, covering the full scope of the company: our software and cloud services, all our data – including the protection and processing of our customers’ data- our offices and infrastructure, and our internal processes and governance.

mark-of-trust-certified-ISOIEC-27001-information-security-management-black-logo-En-GB-1019

Security has always been part of our DNA. ISO 27001 does not mark the beginning of this journey; it formalizes years of work and investment by our teams.  It confirms that OpenAirlines is a trustworthy, long‑term partner, continuously strengthening its practices and working closely with airlines to raise the bar on digital trust in aviation. 

In a context of rising cyber threats, geopolitical tension, and massive digitalization, this certification is a clear commitment to our airline customers, for today and the long term: your critical flight and sovereign data are protected,  and your OpenAirlines solutions will remain resilient and fully operational, even in the event of a cyberattack. 

You might wonder what that means. In this short article, we’ll explain all the things you need to know about our ISO 27001 certification. Let’s start with the basics:

What is ISO 27001?

ISO 27001 is the leading international standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS).
It defines how an organization should manage information security through a systematic approach that includes:

  • Identifying and assessing security risks.
  • Implementing appropriate technical and organizational controls.
  • Defining clear roles, responsibilities, and governance.
  • Continuously monitoring, reviewing, and improving security measures.

Unlike a simple “security checklist”, ISO 27001 is a comprehensive management framework that is audited regularly by an independent certification body. It covers people, processes, and technology.

Certification by BSI, a global leader in standards and certificationIn our case, OpenAirlines’ ISO 27001 certification has been issued by BSI (British Standards Institution), a globally recognized and accredited certification body and a long‑standing actor in the development of international standards.

You can verify our certification status directly in BSI’s public database.

Why ISO 27001 matters for airlines:

For airlines operating amid more serious cyber threats, global instability, and an ever‑more digital ecosystem, Information Security is not just an IT issue. It is directly linked to:

  • Operational continuity – Ensuring that digital services and data remain available and reliable to support daily operations.
  • Protection of sensitive data – Safeguarding flight, operational, and commercial information against unauthorized access or misuse.
  • Regulatory and contractual requirements – Meeting increasing expectations from regulators, partners, and customers on data protection and security.
  • Trust in digital transformation – Supporting the adoption of advanced analytics, cloud solutions, and AI with a solid security foundation.

This certification translates into an internationally recognized level of assurance for airlines that rely on our solutions to support their operational performance.  Concretely, this recognizes that:

We systematically identify and manage information security risks
We maintain a formal risk management framework to identify, assess, and treat threats to our systems, data, and operations. Risks are regularly reviewed, documented, and mitigated through appropriate technical, organizational, and contractual controls.

We apply strict access control and segregation of duties
Access to systems and data is granted on a “need-to-know” and “least privilege” basis. Role-based permissions, approval workflows, and segregation of duties reduce the risk of unauthorized access, data misuse, or configuration errors.

We follow formal processes for incident response, business continuity, and change management
Security incidents are handled through documented procedures, from detection and containment to root-cause analysis and corrective actions. Business continuity and disaster recovery plans help us maintain service in the event of a major disruption, and structured change management processes ensure that updates to our systems are tested, reviewed, and controlled.

Our practices are regularly audited and continuously improved
Independent audits verify that our controls are effectively designed and implemented. Findings are tracked and addressed, and we use audit feedback, internal reviews, and customer requirements to continuously improve our security posture.

  Did you know?
 CEFA Aviation is ISO 27001 certified as well. This means both OpenAirlines and CEFA Aviation apply the same internationally recognized standard for managing information security, across software, data and processes.

Rusada launches PDF Task Integrator for ENVISION

VEVEY, SWITZERLAND: Aviation software specialist Rusada, who earlier this week was acquired by Veryon, has announced the launch of a PDF Task Integrator for its Airworthiness, Maintenance, and Flight Operations solution ENVISION.

The PDF Task Integrator facilitates the digitalisation of customer task cards and work packages for MROs and third-party maintenance providers. Through newly developed functionality, the PDF Task Integrator can read uploaded PDFs, identifying key information such as the Task Number, Task Title, Work Area, Trades, Skills, Hours, and more, as well as highlighting signoffs. The tool can then use this discovered information to link the customer’s PDF task cards to work orders and tasks already created in ENVISION.

“This new functionality saves users significant amounts of time and effort,” said Peter Mortimer, Head of Sales & Business Development – Americas & APAC at Rusada. “Previously maintenance providers would be required to recreate customer task cards one by one in their own system before they could start planning work. In cases of large work packages, this could be thousands of different task cards. Our new tool eliminates this process completely.”

Once the task cards are digitalised, users can then add additional feedback requirements and designate skill applicability against the signoffs. When the work has been completed technicians and engineers can sign off electronically. The completed task can then be provided back to the customer as a PDF with all their preferred formatting still in place.

“ENVISION’s latest tool makes PDFs far more functional and easier to use,” comments Julian Stourton, CEO at Rusada. “It also heavily reduces the chance of input errors and non-compliance as feedback fields can be defined, and signoffs are validated against the user’s stamp in the system.”

Stourton adds, “Above all though, it fully removes the need for paper records and physical signatures in maintenance facilities, something that everyone in the industry is striving for.”

– ENDS –

About Rusada

Rusada, now part of Veryon, is a leading provider of aviation software with over 35 years of experience in the industry.

Central Mountain Air Rolls Out iQSMS for Streamlined Safety Management

Canadian Central Mountain Air (CMA) has recently launched ASQS’ quality and safety management system iQSMS in their organization, further cementing their commitment to safety and excellence in the aviation industry.

The privately owned and operated Western Canadian airline specializes in scheduled and charter flights and allows passengers to seamlessly transfer to Air Canada and WestJet flights through interline agreements.

CMA implemented the iQSMS Reporting Module including the offline application to reduce reporting barriers and ensure operational continuity.

“With iQSMS, CMA has a powerful tool in place that makes reporting easier than ever. This enables the entire team to work more efficiently and strengthens the safety culture within the company,” said Jonathan Frey, Director Sales Americas at ASQS.

“In addition to being user friendly and highly customizable, IQSMS has increased our transparency amongst our employees, provided us with better statistics and tracking/trending capabilities and increased our efficiency, which has allowed us to work smarter, not harder”, commented Jon Beliveau, SMS Manager at Central Mountain Air. “The IQSMS app is another great benefit, as it allows our employees to submit reports via devices, such as the iPads in our Electronic Flight Bags.”

This collaboration marks another milestone for ASQS as the company continues to expand its presence in the Canadian aviation market. ASQS’ integrated quality and safety management solution iQSMS is currently used by more than 300 aviation companies worldwide to manage their quality and safety management processes.

FinnHEMS selects Rusada’s ENVISION

HELSINKI, FINLAND: State-owned emergency medical operator FinnHEMS, has opted for Rusada’s ENVISION software to manage its airworthiness and maintenance activities.

FinnHEMS operates Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) flights for hospital districts from its seven bases across Finland. They utilise a fleet of 9 helicopters, Airbus H135s and H145s, primarily for the deployment of emergency specialists to incidents, rather than the transportation of patients. As such, their callout rate is typically higher and more frequent than standard air ambulance services.

With this high volume of flights and need for constant aircraft availability, FinnHEMS was seeking a greater level of confidence in their operational data and determined that ENVISION met all the requirements for the job.

“We are looking forward to relying on ENVISION to give us more certainty around our operations, as well as increased visibility on the readiness of our fleet.” says Tony Ellonen, Continuing Airworthiness Manager at FinnHEMS. “A key desire was to enable our maintenance teams to effectively plan for upcoming events. With ENVISION, vital information will be readily available to our main base and outlying deployment stations so that our helicopters can be strategically maintained, to be available at a moment’s notice.”

With Rusada’s help, FinnHEMS will now begin the process of consolidating their current systems into ENVISION, using its airworthiness and maintenance modules to manage their activities going forward. The solution will be accessible via the cloud from any of their operating locations, and its live dashboards will ensure key information is available and consistent company wide. This will significantly reduce user’s workloads and avoid any potential human factors conflicts.

“Visibility and control are two words we are hearing a lot lately. Operators are finding it hard to manage complex operations with their data and processes spread across multiple different systems.”

“ENVISION has been designed specifically to eliminate this problem, but nevertheless it is always gratifying when dynamic, forward thinking companies such as FinnHEMS select us to help out. In the coming months we will go above and beyond to deliver the oversight and control they seek.”
