Aviation & Aerospace Awards 2022

Dec21426 Best Boutique Aviation Consulting Firm - Middle East Despite solid headwinds and challenges, launching a new boutique consulting firm in the United Arab Emirates at the height of the pandemic did not faze the founder Linus Benjamin Bauer. With the COVID-19 pandemic inmind, the entire consulting landscape is ultimately no more immune to the forces of disruption than any other industry. Industries with higher complexity, like aviation, need new trusted partners during these challenging times. The current crisis has laid the foundation for boutique consulting firms like Bauer Aviation Advisory (BAA) to become the new trusted and sparring partner for the aviation industry in the post-pandemic era. As the new kid on the block, BAA established its presence in the United Arab Emirates at the pandemic’s peak and has been well perceived as a game-changer and industry disruptor to date. Throughout the pandemic, BAA has grown its global network of more than 35 subjectmatter experts and consultants in the past year, including former consultants from top-tier consultancies. The firm’s combination of specialist aviation experts and professional consultants from top-tier firms adds enormous value to consulting projects, leading to BAA establishing talks with top-tier consulting firms to partner in their ecosystems this year. In December 2020, BAA gained recognition for its services to the region’s aviation sector at the Aviation Business Awards 2020, receiving the ‘Highly Commended award in the Pride of Aviation category, alongside Etihad Airways. One year later, In December 2021, the Founder and Managing Director, Linus Benjamin Bauer, was nominated and shortlisted for the ‘Unsung Hero of the Year’ award at the Aviation Business Awards 2021. According to Linus Benjamin Bauer (Founder), “using off-the-shelve solutions from global management consultancies, which have been tried and tested before, are not explicitly tailored to the clients’ needs in the aviation industry. They increasingly fail to meet the requirements. Hence, the so-called one-size-fits-all model can be described as a diminishing business model for everyone out there in the postpandemic era.” It has led BAA to develop tailor-made health check packages with various themes for aviation companies to drive substantial operational and cost efficiencies, enhancing cost optimization and revenue generation to increase profits. The advanced health check packages support aviation companies to break glass to reduce their unit cost and increase revenues to ensure they can continue their trend of financial sustainability and maintain their competitive position with the transformed cost position. BAA’s health check activities with airlines to date have opened doors to various project initiatives in collaboration with top-tier consultancies and Big 4 firms. When the aviation industry is facing its most profound crisis in history, BAA continues to be fully committed to helping its clients and partners overcome the associated challenges of the current pandemic. Underlying BAA’s capabilities and services are to secure a sustainable and profitable future for the industry by forging sustainable business with a transformed position for a better future.
