Business Impact
Because there is a direct correlation between airline ground time and profitability, the goal of every
ground support operation is to minimize ground time while operating in a safe and cost-efficient manner.
Avro GSE achieves this goal as it delivers real business impact by reducing equipment downtime,
improving equipment performance and ensuring a safe environment.

Together, Avro GSE and Avro Tracker provide the visibility and control needed to manage GSE
operations and follow an optimized preventive maintenance schedule that ensures peak operating
efficiency as it mitigates the high cost of repairs and unscheduled service calls.

Reduced downtime, higher efficiency and assured safety result from a combination of contributing factors
including:
- Reduced idle time
- Minimized fuel cost
- Lower repair costs
- Maximized productivity
- Optimized GSE fleet size
- Extended equipment life
- Verified worker access
