Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT, BSE: 507685, NSE: WIPRO), a leading global
information technology, consulting, and business process services
company, today announced the roll-out of Total Operations System (TOPS)
CREW, a fully-integrated IT product suite for global airlines.

Developed jointly by Wipro and Qatar Airways in an innovative
co-investment model, TOPS is one of the most advanced products available
in the aviation market, today. It helps in increasing the safety
awareness, efficiency and profitability of airline operations.

TOPS is a suite of products to which TOPS CREW is the latest addition.
TOPS CREW helps airlines manage all major processes related to crew
management such as leave bidding & planning, crew training and crew
tracking. This product helps maximize productivity by managing crew
operations, optimizing costs and reducing operational delays.

TOPS CREW provides a powerful ‘what-if’ analysis tool allowing airlines
to prepare, review and compare various solutions to address business
problems. Its dynamic rule-checking ability ensures all real-time
changes are checked for regulatory compliance, airline-stipulated
requirements and also highlights violations of crew legality. TOPS CREW
is also fully compliant with European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA)
requirements.

Srini Pallia, President – Consumer Business Unit, Wipro Limited said,
“The TOPS product suite reinforces our commitment to developing
cutting-edge products and platforms for the aviation market and
supporting the digital transformation journey of our customers. TOPS is
a manifestation of our strategy to address whitespaces in the aviation
industry by investing in technology products. I am confident that global
airlines will derive immense value and benefit from this strategic
product.”

Nitesh Jain, Vice President and Global Head – Travel, Hospitality &
Public Sector vertical, Consumer Business Unit, Wipro Limited
 said,
“The airlines of the future want a holistic and integrated view of their
operations spanning passengers, aircraft and crew. They are increasingly
investing in digitalization to achieve this. TOPS is a unique product
suite that has the potential to transform the Operations Control Center
(OCC) of airlines into an Integrated Operations Center (IOC) where
cross-functional teams can analyze data and make decisions,
collaboratively. We see significant business opportunities in the global
aviation sector and are confident that we can leverage these through
innovative products such as TOPS.”

As a partner in the development, Qatar Airways is also the first
customer to successfully implement the TOPS product suite across both
flight operations and crew management.

Saliya Karunanayake, Senior Vice President – Cabin Services, Qatar
Airways
 said, “At Qatar Airways, technology is at the heart of
everything we do. We share a long history of partnership with Wipro, and
are very pleased that the jointly developed TOPS CREW product suite can
now help further maximize productivity and increase efficiency across
our rapidly expanding global route network, served by our ultra-modern
fleet of more than 250 aircraft.”

TOPS covers the entire spectrum of business processes of an airline’s
flight and crew operations that includes long-term and short-term
maintenance planning, day-to-day operations support including tail
assignment, movement control and flight tracking. The TOPS platform uses
Operations Research (OR)-based tools for complex optimization problems
such as tail assignment and maintenance planning. TOPS is offered in
both ‘On-premise’ and ’Software-as-a-Service’ (SaaS) models.
