Some examples of our work
UK Civil Aviation Authority
CAA, the world’s oldest and largest aviator, needed to change its operating model in order to operate a risk-based compliance regime.
This involved changing the Target Operating model, introducing a new ERP and new digital platforms to calculate and collect ATOL contributions and airline fines. Under Hannah’s direction the Authority outsourced the management of its back office and completed an organisational reorganisation. Uniquely the programme involved both representation from the industry and government oversight.
The benefit to the industry was faster more transparent regulation in the areas of aviation security, safety policy, airline landing fee calculation. The expansion of regulatory responsibilities to noise and drones. A smaller more efficient organisation utilising new digital tools able to post significant financial efficiencies.

TUI Group wished to divest itself of all non-core functions.
A Digital Transformation and Cost optimisation Programme

Furthermore, dividing IP, renegotiating and splitting contracts and bespoke technologies. Finally, outsourcing development, rationalising internal systems and revising the global sourcing strategy.
