The application leverages on SIA’s service excellence and TCS’ strength in digital technology development.

According to the official statement issued by TCS, SIA is the launch customer for its CrewCollab Solution application, which its cabin crew is now using it on board. During flight, the application enables crew to view information which traditionally has been in paper format, such as customer service lists, flight information and crew lists, digitally via tablets.

Additionally, cabin crew of SIA will also be able to create digital voyage reports for each flight. Besides, it can also enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of follow-up items across the many functional areas of the airline.

TCS further revealed that using the application, SIA crew will also be able to access digital versions of key documents like safety manuals, service procedures manuals, catering information, crew memos or alerts and crew-to-crew handover notes.
