Smart4Aviation is proud to announce the signing of a long-term contract with Smartwings, the leading airline in the Czech Republic. The agreement, signed on March 20, 2025, will run through to the end of 2031, marking the beginning of a strategic partnership focused on enhancing operational efficiency and modernising flight deck processes.
Under the contract, Smartwings will implement Smart4Aviation’s state-of-the-art Electronic Flight Folder (EFF) solution for pilots. The comprehensive package includes Smart4Aviation’s Smart MOBILE iOS iPad application, supported by an advanced web-based administrative platform designed to streamline workflows and empower the dispatch team with real-time, integrated tools.
The solution will be fully integrated with Smartwings’ existing systems and tailored through dedicated development efforts to meet the airline’s specific operational needs. As part of the initial scope, Smart4Aviation will deliver the following fully integrated modules that will make up the single platform:
- Smart CORE / SIS / PORTAL (core administrative modules including user and role management, user settings, aircraft database, station information module and access portal),
- Smart MOBILE iOS iPad (dedicated iOS mobile solution for pilots that includes Navlog, fuel order, ATC flight plan, documents, scratch pad, seatmap, interactive map and weather with NOTAMs information and many more features),
- Smart BRIEF (web-based briefing application that provides the automated preparation of Briefing Package),
- Smart MET (weather briefing and monitoring module that gives access to worldwide weather information),
- Smart NOTAM MANAGER (advanced solution designed to improve and automate generation, processing, filtering, storage and retrieval of NOTAMs),
- Smart VIEW (interactive flight monitoring solution),
- Smart CREW INFO (a module that provides access to roster information, company messages and notifications),
- Smart DOC (convenient and easy-to-use central repository for all types of operations-related documents),
- Smart eFORMS (customisable platform that can easily manage multiple reporting and workflow processes with the help of templates).
The solution will be hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure managed by Smart4Aviation. In addition, Smartwings has opted for additional Weather layers provided by Smart4Aviation’s partner DTN to enhance weather awareness for Pilots and Dispatchers.
The Smart4Aviation solution selected by Smartwings delivers a fully integrated ecosystem designed to streamline pilot workflows, enhance situational awareness, and support efficient dispatch operations. The platform combines a powerful mobile application with a robust web-based administrative backend, providing pilots and operational staff with real-time access to critical flight information, weather data, NOTAMs, documentation, and communication tools. Automated briefing preparation, digital form management, and centralised document storage reduce manual workload and support compliance, while flight monitoring and crew information tools improve coordination and operational oversight. The modular design ensures flexibility and scalability, allowing Smartwings to adapt the solution to its evolving needs while maintaining a consistent and user-friendly experience across all touchpoints.
“As the names suggest, Smartwings and Smart4Aviation were destined to come together” said Maciej Migacz, Director of Sales & Marketing at Smart4Aviation. “We are thrilled to welcome Smartwings to our growing family of airline partners. This collaboration is built on shared values of innovation and efficiency, and we are confident it will open the door to even broader cooperation in the future.
