The proposed HR plan for Vietjet Air emphasizes the significance of both
technology and workforce collaboration in achieving a successful digital
transformation. The plan focuses on key strategies such as talent identification,
nurturing, and empowerment. It will include talent selection and recruitment
methods, targeted training initiatives, and effective motivational strategies. The aim
is to create a culture of innovation and adaptability, where employees are
encouraged to drive the digital transformation journey. By implementing these

2.2. The company's digital transformation plan

2.2.1. Customer-Centric Solutions:

• Vietjet Air's focus on understanding customers on a deeper level involves


collecting and analyzing customer data to gain insights into their
preferences, behaviors, and pain points. By leveraging data analytics and AI-
powered algorithms, the airline can tailor its offerings to meet individual
customer needs, creating a more personalized and satisfying travel
experience.
• Suppose Vietjet Air collects data on its frequent flyers' travel habits, such as
preferred destinations, seating preferences, and in-flight meal choices. Using
this data, the airline can create customized travel packages, exclusive deals,
and personalized in-flight experiences based on each passenger's preferences.
For instance, the airline might offer a discounted package to a frequent
business traveler who often flies to a specific city and prefers aisle seats,
along with their favorite meal option.
2.2.2. Advanced Technologies and Automation:

• Vietjet Air's investment in cutting-edge technologies like IoT, AI, and RPA
(Robotic Process Automation) aims to enhance various aspects of its
operations. IoT enables the collection of real-time data from various aircraft
systems, AI helps automate processes and improve customer interactions,
while RPA streamlines repetitive tasks, reducing manual efforts.
• To optimize maintenance procedures, Vietjet Air utilizes IoT sensors in its
aircraft engines to monitor performance parameters. When the sensors detect
any anomalies, such as abnormal vibrations or temperature variations, they
automatically trigger a maintenance alert. As a result, the engineering team
can promptly schedule inspections or repairs, minimizing potential risks and
avoiding costly unplanned maintenance.

conveniently before arriving at the airport, leading to faster boarding and
smoother airport operations.
2.2.4. Data-Driven Decision Making:

• Capitalizing on data-driven insights enables Vietjet Air's leadership to make


informed decisions and respond proactively to market dynamics. Real-time
data analysis empowers the airline to adapt swiftly to changing customer
demands and industry trends.
• During a period of decreased demand for air travel, Vietjet Air uses data
analytics to identify routes with lower passenger volumes. Based on this
information, the airline adjusts its flight schedules and reallocates resources to
focus on more profitable routes. This data-driven approach allows Vietjet Air to
optimize its operations, reduce costs, and maintain a competitive edge in
challenging market conditions.
2.2.5. Elevating Employee Experience:

• Vietjet Air recognizes that an engaged and skilled workforce is crucial for
driving digital transformation. By investing in comprehensive training

capital reserves can provide Vietjet with the flexibility to explore new
opportunities and pivot when necessary, without being overly constrained by
financial limitations. Vietjet adopts an agile approach to its digital
transformation, allowing it to quickly adapt to changing market conditions and

comprehensive cybersecurity framework that covers network security, data
encryption, access controls, and incident response procedures. Employee
training on cybersecurity best practices should be emphasized to raise
awareness and minimize human-related security risks.
• VietJet Air can partner with cybersecurity firms to conduct simulated
cyberattack exercises to identify vulnerabilities and assess the effectiveness of
its security protocols. Regular security audits will ensure continuous
improvement in the airline's cybersecurity posture.
Develop a Robust Data Strategy:
• Data-driven decision-making is critical for optimizing operations,
understanding customer preferences, and identifying new revenue
opportunities. A well-defined data strategy ensures that data is treated as a
valuable asset rather than merely a byproduct of operations.
• VietJet Air should establish clear data governance policies to ensure data
quality, security, and compliance with regulations. Implement a centralized
data repository with data integration capabilities to enable a single source of
truth for insights and analytics.
• The airline can use data analytics to analyze customer feedback and
preferences, enabling personalized offers and services. By analyzing historical
flight data and weather patterns, VietJet Air can optimize flight schedules and
crew assignments for better efficiency and customer satisfaction.

• The aviation industry is dynamic and constantly evolving. An agile


development culture allows VietJet Air to adapt quickly to changes, deliver
solutions faster, and respond to customer needs and market trends efficiently.
• The airline should embrace agile methodologies, such as Scrum or Kanban, for
its digital projects. Cross-functional teams, including IT, marketing, and
operations, should collaborate closely to ensure a holistic and efficient
development process.
• VietJet Air can adopt weekly or bi-weekly sprint cycles for digital projects,
allowing for regular progress updates and stakeholder feedback. By prioritizing
iterative improvements, the airline can deploy minimum viable products
(MVPs) quickly, gathering user feedback early in the development cycle.
Prioritize User Experience:
• A seamless and user-friendly experience is crucial for engaging customers and
employees in the digital transformation journey. By prioritizing user
experience, VietJet Air can drive adoption and ensure that digital solutions
meet user needs effectively.
• The airline should conduct user research, usability testing, and customer
journey mapping to understand pain points and preferences. Incorporate user
feedback at every stage of development to create intuitive and user-centric
digital solutions.
• VietJet Air can implement a mobile app with an intuitive interface, allowing
passengers to book flights with ease, access boarding passes digitally, and
receive real-time updates on flight status and gate changes. A user-friendly
app will enhance the overall travel experience and increase customer loyalty.
Improving the effectiveness of the technological factor in VietJet Air's digital
transformation requires a comprehensive and strategic approach. By investing in
emerging technologies, enhancing cybersecurity measures, developing a robust
data strategy, fostering an agile development culture, and prioritizing user

partnerships secured, incentivizing employees to perform well in their roles
and contribute to the company's revenue growth.

balance and employee morale. Taking regular breaks allows employees to

cabin crew members and pilots might have the flexibility to take vacations
during off-peak seasons when the airline's operations are less demanding.
In summary, financial rewards, including job-based pay, person-based pay, and
employee benefits, have a significant impact on employees at Vietjet Air.
Competitive base pay attracts and retains skilled employees, while contingent pay
