GE's Digital Initiative Is Driving Uncertainty Out of Operations
GE and partners are finding new ways to harvest so-called Big Data to improve the efficiency of customer operations.

GE Aviation’s new Digital Solutions division has been gathering momentum since its formation in 2015. It was earmarked as the focal point for the engine and aircraft systems group’s efforts to help customers reduce operating costs through better use of data and analytics tools. The most recent addition to this portfolio was the March 27 acquisition of Critical Technologies, Inc., which is the developer of the AirVault cloud-based digital records management platform already used by more than 40 airlines and maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) organizations.
