Shared-Source Marketplace

Our industry has a long history of cooperation in the operational domain. Despite increasing competition, cooperation between airlines still makes sense to share development and maintenance costs. For this reason, OpenAirlines encourages cooperation between airlines by promoting an original model: the Shared-Source Marketplace.

Benefits

The benefits of the Shared-Source Marketplace are:

  • Support and maintenance costs are shared and cut down
    • Maintenance cost is reduced by each other airline's usage
    • Maintenance cost turns into positive retribution when 4 airlines use the product

  • Free application improvements
    • Application is improved for free by other airlines contributions

  • Product continuation is improved
    • Continuous improvements and maintenance
    • Becomes industry standard with no lock-in (shared source)
    • User's club
