Sandeep Angra , Chief Information and Technology Officer at Unifi , on how a cloud-first approach enables the aviation services company to grow and thrive
Unifi is the largest ground handling and aviation services company in North America . Well-known and well-respected for its innovative and agile operations , Unifi ’ s vision is to be the most respected company by providing an exceptional experience getting aircraft and passengers to their destination safely .
As its Chief Information and Technology Officer , Sandeep Angra is responsible for Unifi ’ s technology infrastructure and digital operations across all functions of the business .
Unifi ( previously known as Delta Global Services ) went through a significant transition when Argenbright Holdings acquired a majority share of the company from Delta Air Lines in late 2018 .
“ Delta Global Services ( DGS ) became Unifi ,” Angra explains . “ DGS was a subsidiary of Delta Air Lines providing airport ground operation services not only to Delta , but other airline customers as well .”
Argenbright ’ s acquisition of DGS coincided with the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic , presenting an enormous challenge . It was uncharted water for industries , like aviation , that are reliant on frontline workers . A team of leaders who were nimble problem solvers was needed , more than ever , for a successful transition .
