Business aviation data and risk management group Argus International has redesigned and relaunched its CompAir business aircraft evaluation software. Developed in conjunction with AirPower Software, the package allows users to compare aircraft costs, performance, history and metrics on some 220 business jets, turboprops and pistons. Users can compare up to five aircraft at once while accessing reports and important data to make an informed purchase decision.


"The intuitive graphical dashboards, editable cost modeling tools and enhanced report creation modules will greatly benefit our existing customers, and will offer a game-changing comparative aircraft assessment solution for the aviation industry marketplace,” said Shirley Mason, executive vice president of Argus market intelligence.


AirPower Software, which also has experience with U.S. Department of Defense aircraft logistics support models, develops customized software solutions with data dashboards. The two companies collaborated on the redesigned software with aircraft brokers, charter operators, aircraft owners, corporate flight departments, financial institutions and aircraft management companies in mind. CompAir is available on mobile devices and can also be accessed on other devices via the internet.


“Our collaboration with Argus on the CompAir brand makes sense on multiple levels,” said Paul LaFata, CEO of AirPower Software. "We are combining missions to bring solutions and features to aircraft operators, brokers, management companies and many others who require integrated analysis capabilities to evaluate airlift options, compare operational costs and prepare annual flight department budgetary plans. Customer expectations have changed with advancements in mobile and web-based technologies, and we’re committed to delivering solutions that incorporate the flexibility of preparing boardroom-ready analytics with advanced multimedia capability.”


U.S.-based Argus offers a variety of management tools and software for business aviation companies and their clients. These include the Traqpak flight tracking and data analysis tools, the Armor safety management system and the Tripcheq system for assessing the credentials of commercial aircraft operators. The company also conducts audits of operators and their aircraft. It has recently expanded operations to include unmanned aircraft systems.
