Unifi teams up with Microsoft and Artis to apply risk analytics to ground operations

Unifi, a large North American aviation ground services company announced that it is working with Microsoft and Artis Consulting to apply a safety risk analytics model based in Azure to its operations. Unifi is leveraging Azure Machine Learning, AI, and Power BI to run the model.

A predictive component runs three models a day, generating predictions twice a day in organization safety risk, aircraft ground damage risk, and employee injury risk, while a second prescriptive component advises on actions to take.

"To improve travel operations and create a seamless experience for airlines, aviation services need to operate resiliently and have the opportunity to manage risks through data and predictive analytics. Unifi is using Power BI and Azure Machine Learning technologies to proactively improve employee safety and deliver operational efficiencies,” stated Julie Shaincock, Global Travel and Transportation Industry Leader, Microsoft.
