The Insider's Guide to Next-Generation BPM

MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR), the provider of business intelligence software, says Manchester Airport has chosen the MicroStrategy Business Intelligence Platform to provide management information to senior personnel about its airline operations. Manchester Airport is the UK’s third largest airport and currently handles 20 million passengers a year, offering direct flights to over 200 destinations worldwide by over 100 airlines.
Manchester Airport is using MicroStrategy to analyze and report on airline performance against specific targets for different sectors, routes and even individual flights. The airport wanted a user-friendly, scalable system to deliver fast results in a format that would be easily digestible by its management team.
“MicroStrategy reports against certain KPIs (key performance indicators) and displays information in an instantly recognizable dashboard format. We can drill down and find specific information on individual flights if required,” explained Chris Moore, Airport Pricing Manager, Manchester Airport.
Using MicroStrategy applications, the airport creates standard reports on a daily, weekly and monthly basis plus any ad-hoc queries, many of which are delivered to senior management.
“In the future we’re considering the potential of integrating data from other revenue streams – such as our retail outlets and car parks,” concluded Moore.
“Manchester Airport is using MicroStrategy as a new strategic business tool to better understand and enhance its operations,” commented Richard Irwin, UK Managing Director, MicroStrategy. “Our strength in analyzing large volumes of data coupled with our customizable interface has enabled Manchester Airport to start turning historical data into critical business information.”
