Aeroflot said it has put into commercial operation a Unified Production Platform based on Ops Dynamics software, according to CNews, Vedomosti and TASS. CNews said the airline's representatives told it the system is in industrial operation, while Vedomosti said the company announced the move in its Telegram channel. [ 1 , 3 , 4 ]
The software was created by Russian developers at OOO Tsenturion-Innovatsii, CNews, Vedomosti and TASS reported. According to CNews and Vedomosti, it replaces separate systems and provides seamless data exchange between functional blocks and modules. CNews said the platform allows the airline to fully abandon imported IT products. [ 1 , 3 , 4 ]
CNews said the platform has three blocks: schedule and slot-coordination management, daily flight-plan management, and passenger-connection support. Vedomosti listed schedule and slot coordination and daily flight-plan management, and said the passenger-connection block is to be launched in late October. That block is to automate the rebooking of transfer passengers who missed their connecting flights, both outlets reported. CNews and Vedomosti also reported that Aeroflot plans to fully automate schedule creation and monitoring of the daily flight plan over time; CNews said these processes already run semi-automatically.

CNews described a modern, intuitive interface that it said lets users adapt quickly to the new product, and said developers worked closely with the business customer. The outlet called the platform a unique IT product for the aviation industry. [ 1 ]
Vedomosti reported that the platform was created as part of import substitution of foreign software in air transport. It noted that on June 24, President Vladimir Putin told a meeting on aviation development at the Gromov Flight Research Institute in Zhukovsky that Russia had been forced to substitute aviation equipment and had been able to do so fully, and stressed the need to develop technological potential and increase supplies of domestic aircraft.

Why it matters
The launch is presented by the outlets as part of the substitution of foreign software in Russian air transport, a sector that has been under import-substitution pressure. For airlines and enterprise software suppliers, it shows a large Russian carrier moving core operational planning onto domestically developed software. The documents give no figures on cost, savings or the number of systems replaced, so the scale of the change cannot be judged from them.

- The cost of the platform, the contract terms and how many separate systems it replaced. None of the four documents gives financial, contractual or system-count details.
- How the June 24 presidential meeting on aviation development relates to the platform launch. Only Vedomosti mentions the meeting, as background citing Vladimir Putin's remarks; no document states a direct link to the project.
