Pitch Document for Eagle Booking System PITCH DOCUMENT FOR EAGLE BOOKING SYSTEM 1. Our Vision and Mission Vision Statement: To be a ground-breaking travel technology company introducing new technologies that are disrupting the way travel industry operates in Africa and beyond. Mission statement: To make Eagle Booking System a preferred travel platform for the travel and tourism market leveraging our technology, our people and our industry expertise. 2. Our Value Proposition We focus on building long-term relationships with our customers, stakeholders and take the times to truly listen and learn about what travellers want and what they value in a travel experience. We are good listeners and understand that booking travel is much more than a transaction. 3. What is the Problem we’re Solving The travel inventory aggregation and distribution gap exists in general aviation, low cost and legacy carriers. Unavailability of low cost, easy and convenient affordable distribution platform for small and low cost carriers (LCC) as well for legacy carriers has motivated the emergent of Eagle Booking System platform to fill the vacuum. Fees charged by existing traditional Global Distribution Systems (GDSs) are outrageous and does not support business models of many cost conscious airlines. GDS cost is among the top of airlines’ operating costs. 4. The Target Market We target airlines, hotels, cruise/ferries, travel insurance business and travel agents communities predominantly in Africa which together form part of the larger travel and tourism market. The market is lucrative with the airline industry in Africa having more than US$80 billion in economic activities annually. 5. Our Revenue Model (how do we make money) Eagle will make money by charging booking fees from hotel rooms, airlines and ferry tickets. Booking fees (distribution fees) are TZS2,000 per segment for domestic flights and US$3 per ticketed segment regional and international flights. 6. Market Traction (revenue, number of users/customers, IP, licensing, partnerships signed, etc) From December 2014 until December 2016 during the trial period, Eagle Booking System made booking transaction in average of TZS25,000,000 per month working with only two small domestic airlines. Eagle Distribution Systems Ltd has partnership arrangements with Stanbic Bank Tanzania, Kiwi.com, AeroCRS Network and Vodacom Tanzania. 7. Sales & Marketing Strategy EAGLE is in the business of providing low-cost content distribution services to both general aviation, low cost and legacy airlines as well for the hospitality industry in Africa. With our strong partnership with Stanbic Bank in payment solutions, our service approach is "no frills" with emphasis on secure, reliable and real time remittances to airlines and aggregators. Eagle System is a web- based platform which is easy to use and requires less than 30minutes training. Airline surveys still indicate that content distribution service is their number one sales cost and they could make all possible efforts to avoid or control it using various methods including the promotion of the use of airline web-portals for customers purchasing air tickets as well for direct sales through airline dedicated sales offices and general sales agents (GSAs). With our lower distribution rates many airlines are now interested in EAGLE System as a cost cutting measure. We offer precisely what airlines want today, lower operating costs and expanded market reach with diversified ancillary contents. The marketing strategy for platform and solutions promotion will be on the use of below-the-line medium instead of above-the-line, as our primary target clients are airlines and travel agents, not passengers and general public. EAGLE will use mainly POS branding and merchandising, social media, catch editorials and sponsorships on technology and social issues related to travel and tourism trade. Our sales team will spend 70 – 80% of their time with travel agents pushing for adoption, market share growth and retention. The platform is a web-based, thus it will be easy and quick for EAGLE System to be deployed to targeted travel trade. The system does not require any physical installation at the travel agent site. Our IT support team will just create company IDs and profiles after receiving necessary requirements from travel agents. The system is also accessible on mobile devices such smart phones, iPads etc. Due to our low cost operating structure, EAGLE is able to offer service at less than 70% of the current rates charged by traditional GDSs. In order to attract travel agents to use the platform, the company will introduce incentive scheme for travel consultants in the forms of shopping vouchers, negotiated based on their sales volumes. 8. The Team Renatus Kyakalaba – Founder & Chief Executive Officer; has worked for 17years in the travel industry in senior positions. Lately as Country Manager with Amadeus IT Group, this exposed him to many facets of global travel technology businesses. Richard Shirima – Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer is an experienced IT professional and he has worked with a regional airline Precision Air as business analyst and overseeing several software development and deployment for the airline. Jimray Nangawe – Co-Founder/Projects Management he’s well experienced with airline business with 18yrs working experience gained from several regional carriers he worked with in Africa (KQ, Precision Air, RwandAir etc). He’s a reservations systems expert as well in revenue management and network planning. Ashrafali Omari - Lead Developer and he manages the day-to-day development activities of the platform. He’s an experienced programmer in several programming languages. 9. Financial Projections (financial plan) 9. Financial Plan Key Assumptions All key assumptions has been provided for in our Financial Model – on growth path it is projected in the 1st and 2nd years of operations market share adoption to be between 5% to 7% and on 3rd and 4th year expected growth is pegged at 9% and 11% respectively and to maintain the industry growth of 6% throughout from 5th year onwards. Our prices will grow unevenly to allow quick adoption and market share growth strategies through partnerships with travel providers and aggregators using pricing tool and making the platform preferable and competitive. With an initial capital investment of US$ 242,000.00 (including cash deposit to Kiwi.com) to allow seamless operations run for the first 3years, the business will be able to generate enough cash-flow to sustain debt repayments without handicapping our day-to-day operations. Cost Estimations & Projections Cost of facilities and operations Office rent & Utilities Payroll Administrative, Insurance & Marketing Computers, office equipment, Furniture & Fittings Transport, Travel & Maintenance Subscriptions and Software Licenses Cash deposits Cost projections for running the business as provided in the Financial Model worksheet; Year 1 = USD 238,480.00 Year 2 = USD 315,000.00 Year 3 = USD 600,000.00 Financing Business will be financed in the following mix: Personal savings from founders & directors 2% Grants from challenges/competitions 6% Borrowings from commercial banks 37% Venture Capitalists 39% Equity from business operations 16% Raised money will be used to pay for: Payroll Office rent & utilities Office equipment including computers Administrative, Insurance, Subscriptions & Marketing Furniture, Fittings, Transportation & Maintenance Cash deposit with content aggregators Revenue Projections We will have one product (our platform) Eagle Booking System which is our revenue stream. Our pricing is on per booked/ticketed air segment and the current price is US$3.00 per air segment. Our estimated annual segments production volume is based on the available seats for the market. Typically in most cases one domestic ticket has two segments (round trip), few has three to four segments. Segments estimated volumes: Year 1 = 85,000 Year 2 = 89,500 Year 3 = 95,800 Revenue projections: Year 1 = USD 255,000.00 Year 2 = USD 268,500.00 Year 3 = USD 287,400.00 The following Financial Projections are shown on the financial statements template xls.: Profit and Loss projections for year one Cash flow projections for year one Balance sheet projections Our Milestones: Signed Partnership Agreement with Stanbic Bank to manage payments (both billing & remittance) Negotiated Agreement with Kiwi.com Signed Distribution Agreement with AeroCRS Network and 16 airlines have activated Eagle Booking System Negotiations with 2 ferry operators and 1 hotel aggregator are on-going 70+ travel agents IDs & profiles created and using the system in Tanzania Integrated with M-Pesa mobile payment platform (Vodacom) Negotiations with travel insurance underwriter are in progress. Our growth plan for the next 2 years: System upgrade & enhancement. Signing distribution agreement for travel insurance Expansion to entire East Africa region Signing with aggregator for hotel contents Expansion into West Africa Expanding into Central & Southern Africa Expanding into the Horn and North Africa 10. Competitor Analysis The primary competition in the travel contents distribution business is from the existing legacy GDSs (Amadeus, Sabre & Galileo/Travelport) and also from airlines’ direct sales outlets (sales offices and self-booking engines). Amadeus, Travelport and Sabre controls 100% of the GDS market share which account for 58% of the total market size. Airlines booking portals and sales offices (direct sales) have 42% share of the market. We anticipate in year 1 to bite 5% share of the available market size. General Aviation and low cost carriers (LCCs) struggles hard to get their tickets sold through their direct channels and through travel agent networks using their web-portals. These methods has prohibited growth for these airlines as agents feel it is not comfortable working this way and more specifically when they are looking for best fares, timings and availability of seats, they will tend to work through different computer screens, juggling from one airline portal to the other. It is merely cumbersome for agents and they will prefer working on EAGLE System that will display multiple airlines on a single computer screen with all details showing.

  • Relaxing the Rules for Airline Designation
    ATConf/6-IP/20 13/3/13 WORLDWIDE AIR TRANSPORT CONFERENCE (ATCONF) SIXTH MEETING Montréal, 18 to 22 March 2013 Agenda Item 2: Examination of key issues and related regulatory framework Agenda Item 2.2: Air carrier ownership and control RELAXING THE RULES FOR AIRLINE DESIGNATION (Presented by 54 Member States1, Members of the African Civil Aviation Commission (AFCAC)) 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 This paper, which is presented on behalf of the 54 African States, provides Africa’s strategy for sustainability of air transport, based on the harmonization of the authorization and designation of airlines based in line with a common set of criteria and the need for flexibility in order to facilitate Airline access to international capital markets. The common set of criteria is based on the YD eligibility criteria. 1.2 This provides eligible airlines with the possibility to gain access to the international capital market, and also encourage cooperation via consolidation, mergers and acquisition as well as cross border investments. 1.3 With globalization and liberalization of the industry, in particular airline privatization, alternative ownership and control models have emerged. The ICAO proposed clause for the designation of carriers however seem to be the most favoured (CONF/5-2003). The proposed clause permits designation subject to the requirement of incorporation, principal place of business and effective regulatory control as attributed to the designating State. 1.4 In practice, States have considerable latitude and discretion in the interpretation

    Transportation Research Forum Opening African Skies: The Case of Airline Industry Liberalization in East Africa Author(s): Evaristus M. Irandu Source: Journal of the Transportation Research Forum, Vol. 47, No. 1 (Spring 2008), pp. 73-88 Published by: Transportation Research Forum Stable URL: http://www.trforum.org/journal The Transportation Research Forum, founded in 1958, is an independent, nonprofit organization of transportation professionals who conduct, use, and benefit from research. Its purpose is to provide an impartial meeting ground for carriers, shippers, government officials, consultants, university researchers, suppliers, and others seeking exchange of information and ideas related to both passenger and freight transportation. More information on the Transportation Research Forum can be found on the Web at www.trforum.org. OPENING AFRICAN SKIES: THE CASE OF AIRLINE INDUSTRY LIBERALIZATION IN EAST AFRICA by Evaristus M. Irandu The three member states of the East African Community (EAC) have made great efforts in modernizing their air transport industry in order to meet the increased demand for international tourism and horticultural export trade. The policy adopted by the sub-region, at independence, to regulate the airline industry was the bilateralism approach with emphasis on reciprocity. Such a policy became a bottleneck in the development of the air transport industry in the sub-region. It became apparent that the EAC member states needed efficient air services and not airlines that served mainly as status symbols. However, the last decade witnessed the liberalization of the aviation sector in the sub-region. This liberalization process is part of a proactive policy to encourage global investment in the sub-region.

    Report No. 49194 Public Disclosure Authorized AFRICA INFRASTRUCTURE COUNTRY DIAGNOSTIC Air Transport Challenges to Growth Public Disclosure Authorized June 2009 Sustainable Development Africa Region Public Disclosure Authorized Document of the World Bank Public Disclosure Authorized Vice President: Obiageli Katryn Ezekwesili Sector Director: Inger Andersen Task Team Leader: Vivien Foster About AICD This study is part of the Africa Infrastructure Country Diagnostic (AICD), a project designed to expand the world’s knowledge of physical infrastructure in Africa. AICD will provide a baseline against which future improvements in infrastructure services can be measured, making it possible to monitor the results achieved from donor support. It should also provide a more solid empirical foundation for prioritizing investments and designing policy reforms in the infrastructure sectors in Africa. AICD will produce a series of reports (such as this one) that provide an overview of the status of public expenditure, investment needs, and sector performance in each of the main infrastructure sectors, including energy, information and communication technologies, irrigation, transport, and water and sanitation. The World Bank will publish a summary of AICD’s findings in spring 2008. The underlying data will be made available to the public, through an interactive Web site, allowing users to download customized data reports and perform simple simulation exercises. QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture. The first phase of AICD focuses on 24 countries that together account for 85 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP), population, and infrastructure aid flows of Sub-Saharan Africa. The countries are: Benin, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Cameroon, Chad, Congo (Democratic Republic of Congo), Côte d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Namibia, Niger, Nigeria, Rwanda, Senegal, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia.
