Magellan system's procedure
Phase I: Development
This phase involves the analysis of the travel requirements and constraints of the client.
- Destinations and the number of persons travelling per destination are analyzed.
- The current transport budget of the client is determined (TGV, payments to various airlines, hotel stays required for the purposes of connecting flights, etc.).
- The number of working days saved through the use of the private aircraft selected is identified, taking account of the type of journeys undertaken by the client.
- Aéro Capital determines the saving in corporate costs, together with gains in the productivity of the executives of the client transported under existing arrangements and under the forecast solution with a business jet.
The result is a comparison between the existing situation of the client and the projected expenditure associated with the use of the private commercial aircraft selected.
Should the difference in costs and items analyzed (corporate cost savings and improved productivity) prove to be favourable, Aéro Capital proceeds to Phase II.
If this is not the case, the procedure is interrupted.
Phase II: Trial operation
This phase is used for the validation of assumptions generated by the Development phase.
A one-month trial is conducted using an aircraft with the characteristics identified during the Development phase.
If assumptions are confirmed, the plan will be deployed and the
jet purchase will be completed.
Otherwise, the procedure will be interrupted.
Phase III: Deployment
The Magellan System, which allows the optimization of the cost of ownership and the delegation of the operational management of an aircraft fleet is now approved by Dassault Aviation, Grob Spn, and EADS Socata. Aéro Capital is also an official agent for the EADS Socata TBM 700 and 850.
