LCC (Low Cost Carrier) created a new market with a business model different from that of major airlines. As the first LCC in Thailand, Thai AirAsia is one of AirAsia Group companies headquartered in Malaysia and positions itself as an ASEAN airline, operating international flights to major Asian countries as well as domestic flights from its 6 airport hubs at Don Mueang Airport, Chiang Mai Airport, U-tapao Airport, Phuket Airport, Krabi Airport and Chiang Rai Airport in Thailand.
Since its establishment in 2003, they have steadily expanded its business by increasing number of destinations it operates. However, the impact of the increase in fuel oil costs caused by the intermittent rise in crude oil prices on the business is not small, and continuous cost reduction is an essential effort to maintain superiority of its services as LCC.
As part of this effort, the ICT department introduced intra-mart, which is mainly used for in-house workflow operations such as travel expense adjustment. In addition to a significant reduction in paper forms, they achieved system that enables the company to flexibly and quickly correspond to new creation and changed approval processes as a result of organizational changes, resulting in a significant reduction in both outsourcing costs and work time.
