Presight, a globally recognised AI and data analytics company, has formalised a new Memorandum of Understanding with Abu Dhabi Aviation Group of Companies (ADA Group), the UAE’s largest commercial helicopter operator and aviation services provider. The agreement aims to fast-track the nation’s transition toward AI-enabled aviation and Industry 4.0 capabilities.
Through the MoU, both parties will work together to embed artificial intelligence, advanced analytical tools and sovereign data systems across ADA Group’s aviation and industrial portfolio. The collaboration is designed to enhance operational efficiency, reinforce fleet reliability and support national strategies focused on technological independence within critical industries.
A key part of the partnership will be the joint development of a unified operational data fabric to integrate aircraft operations, maintenance processes, logistics networks, production systems and workforce platforms into one cohesive digital architecture. This intelligent infrastructure is expected to power predictive analytics, digital-twin modelling, real-time tracking and explainable AI solutions that elevate safety, sustainability and operational agility. Anticipated benefits include greater aircraft availability, reduced unexpected downtime, streamlined supply chains and faster workforce upskilling.
Thomas Pramotedham, Chief Executive Officer, Presight, said: “The partnership reflects our shared commitment to building sovereign, advanced and safe AI capabilities that support the UAE’s digital transformation across strategic sectors. We have been working across the mobility ecosystem to deliver predictive analytics, real-time intelligence and secure digital infrastructure that improve fleet performance and operational resilience. Through this MoU, we will work with Abu Dhabi Aviation Group of Companies to build a unified operational data fabric that links aircraft, maintenance, logistics and workforce systems into one intelligent backbone. By combining our capabilities with their operational expertise, we can create the foundations for a more resilient, efficient and future-ready aviation ecosystem.”
Mahmood Alhay Alhameli, Group Chief Executive Officer, Abu Dhabi Aviation Group, said: “We are committed to integrating artificial intelligence, predictive analytics and sovereign data to maximize efficiencies across our operations. The effective application of these technologies is vital in keeping ahead of the pace of change, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of the aviation and aerospace sector. This partnership with Presight reflects our long-term ambition to build a secure, future-ready aviation ecosystem that strengthens national competitiveness and supports the UAE’s technology agenda.”
The collaboration will pair Presight’s engineering and AI specialists with ADA Group’s operational experts to create practical, scalable solutions that can be deployed seamlessly throughout aviation settings. With a strong focus on predictive maintenance, digital-twin integration and real-time intelligence, the partnership aims to set new benchmarks in fleet performance and operational safety.
This agreement lays the groundwork for a sovereign, secure and fully integrated digital aviation ecosystem within the UAE. By combining advanced AI capabilities with deep aviation expertise, the partnership is positioned to drive national competitiveness, support industrial diversification and offer a scalable blueprint for the future of aviation innovation across the broader region.
