Lavastorm Analytics company, is empowering Gogo,
a leading provider of in-flight connectivity, to reach a new level of
efficiency and innovation using their Lavastorm
Analytics Platform (LAP). The adaptive, discovery-driven analytics
software and method of the LAP are connecting and automating key data
and processes between Gogo’s front and back office operations, enabling
faster time-to-market for new services, more accurate financial
tracking, and a better overall in-flight Wi-Fi experience.
With its proprietary air-to-ground broadband network, Gogo’s broadband
connectivity is increasingly becoming a factor in travelers’ flight and
airline decisions. To help ensure it can maintain its superior customer
experience and service quality as demand surges, Gogo is using the LAP
to connect information across various key customer interaction data
sources, such as CRM systems and data warehouses, and make automated
processes more intelligent and accurate.
“The goal is to further improve the quality of experience that our
customers can expect,” said Rama Prasad, Gogo’s chief information
officer. “To improve our service, leveraging data from our customer
interactions and connecting it with more standardized, automated
business processes will be key. The intuitive and discovery-driven
nature of the Lavastorm Analytics platform is giving us actionable
insight every day in a way the business can understand and act upon.”
With the new automated processes enabled by the LAP, Gogo can now, for
example, provide senior management teams with financial transparency and
precise daily revenue figures from all sales transactions. The enhanced
business analytics are also enabling Gogo to focus more on constantly
improving the customer experience by adding new features that add value
at every turn, such as managing dynamic advertising campaigns, improving
online customer care, and tracking paid sponsorships.
“Gogo’s need to tie multiple sources of information together from across
different parts of its organization is where Lavastorm really excels,”
said Drew Rockwell, CEO, “Rather than merely analyzing historical
data to find areas that might need improvement, we apply a more
workshop-like approach with our tools and methods so that teams
immediately and exactly know how to tackle complicated problems that go
beyond simple business logic. For Gogo, this approach meant they started
seeing value almost immediately.”
With a unique visual, codeless interface, the Lavastorm
Analytics Platform (LAP) puts control of the analytic process
directly in the hands of business decision makers and users while
enabling IT to support the business better. The LAP’s combined
ease-of-use and adaptive capabilities moves analytics away from shallow,
expensive, and lengthy methods, and empowers companies to drive
persistent value directly from business processes and the data that
flows across them.
