Satcom Direct has completed the first phase of integration of the MySky AI-powered spend management program into its flight operations platform. The integration, which comes a year after Satcom Direct announced the strategic partnership with MySky, enables subscribers to access and optimize their expense and operational data directly from the SD Pro dashboard. 

Under the partnership, SD Pro can be used as a single source of data through a centralized system. Graphics generated from MySky surrounding spend efficiency are displayed alongside operations data on the dashboard interface, and users can easily switch between the two as they make decisions surrounding efficiency, budgeting, and asset management, Satcom Direct said. Future integration plans include the recently launched MySky Budget program that provides predictive budgeting analysis.

“The integration of the MySky information into our open-architecture platform provides clear visibility into the complete flight operation ecosystem, from the SD PreFlight planning module through to SD PostFlight reporting, as well as purchasing and invoice management,” said Chris Moore, president of Satcom Direct Business Aviation. “This streamlines all the processes related to flight operations.”

“For jet owners, understanding the real operating costs of their aircraft can sometimes be difficult,” said MySky co-founder Chris Marich. “Together, MySky and SD are providing SD Pro users with clear visibility of operating costs, enabling users to maximize their budgets and make more informed business decisions.”
