ABOUT
COMPANY BACKGROUND
BRIEF ON CURRENT CUSTOMERS
SAS Ground Handling (SGH) is a subsidiary of the Star Alliance-member SAS Scandinavian Airlines Group, and operates
across the three Nordic countries Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Headquartered at Frösundavik, Sweden, SGH employs
close to 5000 staff in Scandinava, and its yearly turnover / aggregate revenue is close to €500 million.
SGH is Europe's third-largest full-service provider of aircraft ground-handling services, and ancillary ramp operations. Its sister-company Spirit Cargo operates in close collaboration with freight, where SGH handles courier-services and light cargo. In total, over the three countries, the main hubs have large ground-equipment fleets in operation 24x7x365, and the number of vehicles, trucks and other non-motorized equipment are over 2500 (counting only the hubs Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo).
While the customer airlines differ between the hubs, in all SGH services around 30 international airlines in each hub, in addition to the mainline (SAS Airline) as well as other logistics partners for courier & cargo.
In its 2016 third quarter financial report to the stock-market, SAS Group presented a widening effort to digitize its entire operation, from passenger application, to airline crew and so-called ramp-automation.
It is the latter sector where GreatSway Enterprises Inc. has developed a series of bespoke solutions, with a view to addressing snags, raise safety, improve revenue & billing, sensitize staff of efficiency concerns and cost-reductions resulting from rollout of Mobile-IT.
