The Operational Reality

Most LCCs lose 0.5–1.8% of BSP revenue to operations. Few can quantify it.

It rarely shows up as a single line on the P&L. It lives across mis-filed fares, ADM exposure, refund backlogs, and the visibility gap between cycle close and the next commercial review. The leak is real; it's just distributed.

Revenue operations challenges

What's happening today

  • ADM exposure quietly compounding across the agency base
  • Refund cycles running 21–45 days, customer NPS taking the hit
  • Fare filing errors on 3–7% of itineraries, surfacing as memos
  • Manual reconciliation absorbing 40+ FTE hours every week
  • NDC migration stalled — not by tech, but by operational readiness
  • Commercial visibility lagging 7–14 days behind cycle close
TBS operations solution

What TBS makes routine

  • ADM disputes filed with full evidence, root cause looped to commercial
  • Refund TAT benchmarked and compressed against IATA peer-set
  • Fare loading audited against published inventory, weekly
  • Distribution operations run as a managed service, not a cost centre
  • NDC operational layer aligned to Aerostream and ONE Order
  • D+1 reporting across BSP, ARC and direct — monthly variance to CFO
What We Operate

Six service lines. Each tied to a commercial outcome, not a seat-based contract.

You keep strategy, customer ownership and pricing decisions. We run the engine room — to defined SLAs, with daily reporting, against measurable recovery targets.

Ticketing and Fare Management
01

Ticketing & Fare Management

Fare loading across GDS and NDC, exchange and reissue processing, continuous audit against published inventory. Where most mis-priced itineraries originate is not what airlines assume.

Target> 99.5% fare accuracy
Refund and ADM Defence
02

Refund & ADM Defence

ADM dispute filing with full evidentiary chain, plus the prevention loop that surfaces the agency, fare or process root cause. The metric is recovery rate, not dispute count.

TargetADM recovery > 70%
NDC and Distribution Operations

NDC & Distribution Ops

The operational layer most NDC programmes underestimate — offer management, order servicing, ancillary catalogue, post-booking workflow. Integrated with Aerostream.

Why TBS, Specifically

Built inside an airline retailing house, not an outsourcing firm.

Six reasons CCOs and Heads of Operations choose TBS over the alternatives — and why it matters for your P&L.

01

JRT lineage, IATA-recognised

TBS sits inside the JR Technologies group. IATA Strategic Partner since 2013. 20+ NDC airline implementations. ONE Order pilot heritage with Lufthansa Group. The pedigree is in the file, not on a brochure.

02

Outcome-priced, not seat-priced

Engagement structures index against ADM recovery, refund TAT and fare accuracy. The commercial conversation is about what your P&L looks like in 12 months, not how many FTEs sit in which city.

03

NDC and ONE Order, operationally

Most carriers' NDC stall isn't technical — it's operational. Order servicing, exchange flows, ancillary reconciliation. TBS runs that layer inside NDC 17.2 / 18.2 and ONE Order without retrofitting.

04

D+1 commercial visibility

Daily dashboards across BSP, ARC and direct, monthly variance at CFO depth. Replaces the fortnightly fog most LCC commercial teams have learned to operate inside.

05

Scale without headcount inflation

Capacity added in 60–90 days. No recruitment cycle, no training overhead, no fixed-cost trap. The cost line stays variable to volume — which is the only way LCC economics work.

06

One owner, one SLA, one P&L view

One named operations director. One governance framework. One reporting cadence. Not a stack of point vendors and the coordination tax that comes with them.

Comprehensive Group Services

Operator Questions

What CCOs and Heads of Operations ask before the first call.

How is TBS different from a traditional aviation BPO? +
TBS is an airline operations partner inside the JR Technologies group — IATA Strategic Partner, 20+ NDC implementations. The engagement model indexes on commercial outcomes (ADM recovery rate, refund TAT, fare accuracy), not seat-based contracts. Strategy and customer ownership stay with the airline. TBS runs the operational layer.
What is the Revenue Leakage Audit, and what does it cost? +
A complimentary 21-day diagnostic for qualifying low-cost and regional carriers. It quantifies the dollar value of operational gaps across ADM exposure, refund cycles, fare filing and reporting. The output is a CFO-ready report with prioritised recovery actions. No commitment beyond the diagnostic.
How quickly does TBS take over a function? +
Fare management, refund operations and reporting typically transition in 60–90 days from contract — including knowledge transfer, SLA definition and parallel run. Reservations and customer operations sit at 75–105 days depending on language coverage and channel scope.
Does TBS work with carriers on legacy PSS? +
Yes. Most engagements involve hybrid environments — legacy PSS plus partial NDC adoption. TBS operates across legacy GDS workflows and NDC / ONE Order environments, and integrates with the JR Technologies Aerostream platform for carriers progressing toward full digital retailing.
Which regions does TBS cover? +
North America (USA, Canada), Europe (Ireland, Greece, UK), Middle East hubs (UAE), APAC and South East Asia (Singapore, India), and Southern and East Africa. Coverage is aligned to airline operating windows and IATA BSP geographies.
How is performance measured? +
Every engagement runs under an SLA framework covering fare accuracy, refund TAT, ADM recovery rate, reporting cadence and channel-specific KPIs. Operational metrics report daily (D+1); commercial variance reports monthly at Head of Commercial / CFO level.
What does the contract look like? +
Standard structure is a 12-month Master Services Agreement with quarterly business reviews. Pricing is scoped against SLA tier, not headcount, with outcome-linked components available for ADM recovery and refund TAT compression.

Let's shape the future of airline operations together.

Take the diagnostic for a quantified view of operational revenue exposure. Or engage an Operations Director directly if the gap is already known.
