Pulsar Informatics

Pulsar Informatics is a fatigue risk management technology and professional services company. It says it has been implementing fatigue risk management solutions since 2003.

Its software helps safety teams monitor and manage fatigue risk across an operation. The Aviation Fatigue Meter includes Fleet Insight, which assesses fatigue risk in planned flights and duties, and Fatigue Meter PRO, which lets pilots, flight attendants and maintenance workers track their own fatigue. A mobile app captures alertness surveys and objective reaction tests from crew.

The Trucking Fatigue Meter draws hours of service data from electronic logging devices and estimates each driver's fatigue from their duty schedule. Fleet managers can forecast fatigue one day ahead and use coaching tools to manage it. The Workforce Fatigue Meter and PVT WorkFit tools extend the same approach to other industries.

The company's products are built on research. It says it collaborates with prominent sleep researchers, supports sleep research studies around the world, and carries out high fidelity field studies of operational alertness.

The company works with government and defence bodies, including agencies listed as partners on its home page. Its fatigue tools are used by operators who want an objective view of crew alertness.

Pulsar also works with partners in business aviation and vertical aviation. Its tools have been integrated into a flight operations platform for business aviation and into a membership programme for vertical aviation operators, which helps those operators manage fatigue and improve safety.

The company offers professional services as well as software. It can review an operator's existing fatigue risk management system and suggest improvements, and it provides resources to help operators move forward with their programmes. Its statement is that an effective system improves safety, saves costs and helps meet evolving regulatory requirements.
