A ramp duty manager in a high-visibility vest stands at the right of frame raising a radio to his mouth, a wide-body airliner with its boarding stairs lit on the wet apron to his left at pre-dawn.
Use Cases
Live ops 06:40:00 Aviation & Ground Handling

Wheels down late.
The slot won't wait.
The stand is two short.

A ground handler runs on a flight schedule that slips all day, a minimum team per turnaround and airside permits that expire. One sick loader at the wrong stand shouldn't turn a tight turnaround into a delay billed back to you.

Sound familiar?

01The flight schedule slips all day, and the roster you built last night doesn't move with it.
02One baggage handler off sick at the wrong stand, and a widebody turnaround is under its minimum team.
03You learn a GSE driver's airside permit lapsed when the load is already running late.
04Every minute coded to handling is a penalty, and a mark against the airline SLA.
The breaking moment · status critical

06:40. The 07:15 widebody is two ramp agents short.

The inbound landed 40 minutes late, so the turnaround window is already under the minimum. A loader on that stand called in sick and the GSE driver's airside permit lapsed at midnight. Run the team short and the bags miss the hold, pull the gate and the aircraft loses its slot. Either way the delay is coded 32, GL, lack of loading staff, and billed straight back to you.

How SSI changes it · status resolved

The roster moves with the flight schedule, and only crews who can work the stand.

  1. It rosters to the live flight scheduleWhen an inbound slips or a bank bunches up, the plan reflows. The platform sizes every turnaround to its minimum team and shows the stands trending short before the aircraft is on blocks.
  2. It only assigns crews cleared to workAirside driving permit, dangerous-goods currency and aircraft-type loading certs sit on each agent's profile. A lapsed permit blocks the assignment automatically, so no out-of-permit agent reaches the ramp.
  3. It ranks the nearest cover for a short standWhen a stand goes under, the platform surfaces the best available agents who are permit-current and type-certified, ranked by proximity and cost, to crew it in minutes.

What changes, in numbers.

100% agents permit-current and type-certified
