Australian Carrier Modernizes Systems Amid Technology Shift
Australian flag carrier Qantas has announced a deal with Accenture to modernize its back-end systems, processes, and data, resulting in the expected loss of around 850 jobs over the coming years. The airline aims to provide support and redeployment opportunities for affected employees. Qantas has been investing heavily in technology, including the establishment of a new innovation centre in Adelaide. The move is part of the airline’s efforts to respond to the rapid pace of technological change and prepare for the future, as reported by Asian Aviation.
