Arcadea’s Vellox Group has acquired France-based maintenance software developer Aviation Dedicated Software (ADSoftware), adding MRO and continuing airworthiness management organization (CAMO) capabilities to Vellox’s operations platform. ADSoftware serves airplane and helicopter operators, as well as providers of CAMO services. Arcadea launched Vellox Group earlier this year to consolidate Spidertracks, Air Maestro, Flight Vector, and Complete Flight under one platform.
The combination of the two companies’ software platforms creates a “one-stop solution for operations and maintenance management,” according to Vellox, “offering unified workflows that eliminate silos between flight operations and maintenance.”
“ADSoftware is a natural fit for Vellox’s disruptor vision,” said Vellox Group CEO Aleksandra Banas. “Together, we’re reshaping how aviation operators run their businesses from the cockpit to the hangar with a single, integrated platform.”
The combined platform will give users access to “seamless workflows across planning, dispatch, safety, and maintenance; a single, cohesive user experience; advanced decision support and analytics tools; and elevated compliance and audit-readiness,” according to Vellox. The company will rebrand ADSoftware’s Airpack software and retain all ADSoftware employees.
