Carmen Manpower is a fully operational planning tool integrated with other Carmen modules. In addition it is also a management instrument with a wide range of functions for scenarios and analyses.

For an airline operation to maintain efficiency, reliable data on available manpower is crucial. With Carmen Manpower detailed data can be mixed with approximations depending on what is available. Real crew pairings can also be combined with approximations from the flight schedule or even from the basic fleet structure. Production figures can be loaded from Carmen Crew Pairing and the result from planned training, number of available instructors, simulator passes and vacations in Carmen Manpower can be exported to Carmen Crew Rostering.

Availability of pilots and cabin crew often depends on a wide range of long-term and short-term factors, recruitment plans, vacation planning, transfers, stand-by and training have an impact on the total crew planning efficiency. With Carmen Manpower all these factors are taken into account. Furthermore, dealing with more remote issues like schedules for instructor availability, simulators, fleet changes, retirements and days off patterns can also be considered.

There is also a big potential from integrating with other optmization systems, such as Carmen Crew Pairing and Carmen Crew Rostering. With Carmen Manpower it is possible to consider all crew activities in one integrated system and as a result achieve more precision in crew dimensioning and planning. Crew costs can be reduced by utilizing optimization for crew transitions and for planning of training and vacation.
