Boomi™, the intelligent connectivity and automation leader, today announced that Hong Kong Aircraft Engineering Company Limited (HAECO), one of the world’s leading independent aircraft engineering and maintenance groups, has leveraged the award-winning Boomi platform to modernize its enterprise IT infrastructure and pivot towards data-driven workflows and processes.
HAECO Group comprises 16 operating companies around the world, offering a full spectrum of services including airframe services, line services, component services, engine services, inventory technical management, fleet technical management, cabin solutions, private jet solutions, freighter conversion, parts manufacturing, and technical training. HAECO Hong Kong is home to the headquarters of the HAECO Group and is based at the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA), providing round-the-clock support to more than 100 airline customers and handling over 110,000 flight movements each year.
Prior to using Boomi, HAECO Hong Kong’s systems were disparate and marked by complexity. Deploying several open-source solutions, HAECO Hong Kong’s IT team encountered lengthy development and complex integration challenges. Developers spent valuable time writing code to connect these systems, instead of undertaking tasks that could directly benefit the business’ bottom line.
HAECO Hong Kong selected the Boomi platform to connect applications and simplify integration. Leveraging the platform’s low-code development capabilities, HAECO Hong Kong swiftly integrated various new solutions with existing legacy systems, allowing the company to achieve an aggressive timeline for implementing a number of major projects, including a new core maintenance system, procurement solution, and online learning solution.
“Boomi’s industry-leading, intuitive, low-code platform immensely simplified integration complexity, vastly reducing our development effort, and improving the time-to-value,” said Norman Chan, Head of Information Technology at HAECO Hong Kong. “We needed an intuitive solution to help us configure our processes faster and accelerate the turnaround time. Boomi’s easy-to-use interface enabled our teams to quickly connect our digital environments to extract value from data residing in various systems.”
“The result was a seamless integration of core maintenance, procurement, and learning applications, eliminating end-user friction. Our team of developers gained back hours previously spent on writing and refining code for integrating backend systems, speeding up integration times by 300%, significantly increasing efficiency, reducing costs, and eliminating common integration project bottlenecks, such as data discovery, preparation, and governance,” added Chan.
“We are very pleased to know that our single instance multi-tenant platform has provided HAECO the impetus to break down data silos and turn them into actionable insights. This is a testament to the kind of solutions we provide which are driving successful business outcomes,” said HonChew Seetoh, Director of Asia, at Boomi.
Boomi touts a growing community of more than 100,000 members and one of the largest arrays of GSIs in the iPaaS space. The company boasts a worldwide network of approximately 800 partners, including Accenture, Deloitte, SAP, and Snowflake; and works with the largest hyper-scaler cloud service providers, including Amazon Web Services, Google, and Microsoft, among others.
Included on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™ and Inc. 5000 lists as one of America’s fastest-growing technology companies, Boomi has also won three International Stevie® Awards, for Company of the Year (two years in a row) and Product Innovation; the Gold Globee® Award in the Platform as a Service (PaaS) category; the Merit Award for Technology in the Cloud Services category; the Stratus Award as a Global Leader in Cloud Computing 2022, and received the prestigious 5-star rating in the CRN Partner Program Guide for two consecutive years.
