British Airways — Aviation & Travel
From one flight at a time to the whole crew.
British Airways' crew tools were built for the enterprise iPad era — beautifully detailed, but scoped to a single flight at a time. We rebuilt that design language into Crew Analytics, a live operations home surfacing fatigue risk, compliance and scheduling health across the entire crew base.
Beautiful detail, one flight at a time.
BA's enterprise iPad tools followed a strict "Digital User Experience Language" — consistent navigation, typography and iconography across every app crew used in the air and on the ground. Opened to a specific flight, like BA 175, it gave a crew manager everything: punctuality, customer requirements, catering, route weather.
What it couldn't do was zoom out. There was no home screen for the whole crew base — no way to see fatigue risk, compliance or scheduling health across thousands of crew members without opening flight after flight.

Pulling the components that scale.
Rather than start from a blank page, we pinned the existing flight-level patterns — punctuality rings, customer requirement counts, route specifics — up next to the brand's own colour system and asked which pieces could scale from "one flight" to "the whole fleet" without losing what made them work.
Crew Analytics: one live operations home.
The shipped experience gives crew managers a single Overview — active crew, flights operated, block hours and utilisation up top, with fatigue risk trending against a defined threshold, real-time crew availability, top routes by block hours, and a compliance score rolling up licenses, medical, training and documents. Critical alerts and AI-generated insights surface automatically, so nothing waits to be found.

The numbers that moved.
8,346 crew now visible from a single home screen, instead of one flight-level app at a time.
87.6% crew utilisation, trending up 2.4 percentage points week over week.
98.2% overall compliance visibility across licenses, medical, training and documents, up 1.3 percentage points.
Fatigue risk now surfaced proactively — 12 crew flagged automatically instead of found manually, flight by flight.
