The Challenge

The expanded global operations of AARcorp demanded effective and efficient internal communication.

This also reduces the chances of miscommunication and complications in the complex aviation environment.

The Solution

A fleet of high-definition Android screens were strategically deployed at peak locations within their offices. The placement of the screens ensured that all the employees could easily access it for real-time information and updates.

These screens displayed a variety of content based on the position where they were deployed.

HR Content: Included special occasion celebrations, rewards, and announcements for new employees.

Health & Safety Updates: Featured real-time reports, warnings, and progress updates from safety issue resolutions.

Operational Data: Showed maintenance progression and special notifications from each of AAR Corp.'s maintenance lines.

Training and Information: Provided educational content on how to use various tools and equipment effectively.

As the solution was powered by a cloud-based application, administrators were allowed to take charge of remote content management. In addition to that, the solution also included the incorporation of Pickcel apps, such as Google Slides for presentations, social media feeds to keep staff updated with the latest company news, Power BI for displaying real-time data analytics, and practical apps like weather forecasts and clocks.

The integration of Pickel's cloud-based digital signage solution brought about several key benefits:
