MEXICO CITY, Aug. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Oracle announced ABC Aerolíneas, S.A. de C.V., operating as Mexican airline Interjet, has seen significant efficiency gains from using Oracle's Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management to coordinate, manage and execute key projects.

Interjet's projects range from the acquisition of new aircraft to the introduction of new routes to the installation of flight simulators. The airline notes that Primavera P6 EPPM's flexibility to adapt to different levels of project complexity and size has enabled Interjet to increase its efficiency by more than 50 percent among more than 200 projects.

"With the former tools, planning was more complicated and required us to develop complementary tools to show in a very graphic and simple way the status of each project and each responsible person. Primavera P6 EPPM has reduced the effort and time needed to analyze and present results, with benefits for those who manage the projects, those who execute and those who follow up. Oracle's software has allowed us to contribute in a coordinated and effective way to the development of the company," said Carlos Núñez Brambila, Project Director of Interjet.

With Primavera P6 EPPM from Oracle Construction and Engineering, Interjet now also has the ability to streamline management responsibilities. It can designate one member of the project management team to control the project development, identify project deviations and bring visibility to key stakeholders to make informed decisions. Additionally, Interjet is able to map clear objectives and responsibilities for each project to corresponding specialists based on their knowledge and skills. The result is that resources are leveraged more effectively through closer coordination between various departments and managers.

"Oracle's Primavera P6 EPPM provides the real-time collaboration, visibility and scalability that enable organizations like Interjet to manage projects of any size efficiently and effectively," said Andy Verone, Vice President, Product Strategy, Oracle Construction and Engineering. "We are thrilled to deliver transformative solutions that are improving project and business outcomes for customers in Mexico and around the world."

Using Primavera P6 EPPM, Interjet has been able to eliminate:

93 percent of the time spent on the generation of status reports by specific tasks
67 percent of the time spent on work plan updates
83 percent of the time spent on creating new project reports

"The transformation of Interjet, in its processes of planning, monitoring and execution of projects, through an efficient technological platform, is the mission of Oracle. To understand the challenges Mexican companies face day-by-day and to solve their needs with a platform that empowers its strengths is how Oracle contributes to the transformation of Mexico. Interjet has managed through the planning and database management solutions to support the development of projects that drive the growth and presence of the airline nationally and internationally," said Javier Cordero, Managing Director of Oracle Mexico.
