20. “Carmen is one of the best investments we have ever made” British Airways Client Statement

21. Three key aspects: Flexibility Predictability Holistic view Optimization

22. Use optimization to address questions “Why are we having the same duty limits but less average block time compared to airline X?“ “What would the cost be to allow a combination of fixed and variable free days? “ “How can the planning be efficient when I have two blank days, and three deadheads in my roster this month?" Optimization

23. Northwest Deutsche Bahn Lufthansa British Airways Core product Legality Quality Costs Reports Interfaces Colours etc... Optimization methods GUI Modelling tools like Rave and the report generator Basic functionality Carmen Rave

24. The same legality tool in all products Short lead-times to introduce new rules Very important when performing simulations Clients estimate additional savings of 2% RULE max_duty = %duty% <= 9:00; REMARK “Maximal duty”; END Carmen Rave

25. Adding a new legality rule to the system Generic control panel for legality, quality and cost A Rave programmer creates the rule The system immediately respects the new rule Adding a rule with Rave
