Advisory
Independent advisory supporting high-risk inflight entertainment and connectivity decisions for airlines, suppliers, and investors.
IFECtiv provides confidential, independent advisory for senior leaders and investors facing high-risk IFEC decisions. The focus is on decision judgment before commitments are made, not execution after the fact.
Advisory engagements are structured around ongoing decision context and typically include regular scheduled private advisory sessions and a quarterly IFEC market insight briefing. Structure and cadence are agreed privately.
For Airlines
A private advisory service designed for airline leaders who carry responsibility for inflight entertainment and connectivity decisions that are difficult to reverse.
It exists to provide:
Independent perspective before commitments are made
A confidential sounding board outside internal politics
Continuity of judgment across multiple decision points
This advisory is not tied to projects, RFPs, or delivery milestones. It is designed to support decision confidence, not operational throughput.
What this advisory covers
Pre-decision risk and trade-off assessment
Strategic framing before executive or board discussions
Perspective on market, vendor, and program implications
Ongoing context retention across IFEC decisions
What it does not include
Project execution or delivery support
Vendor selection or negotiation
Internal facilitation or documentation
Representation of the airline in external forums
The advisory service is offered on a limited basis.
For Suppliers and OEMs
Advisory support to inflight entertainment and connectivity suppliers and OEMs facing strategic decisions that carry long-term commercial or reputational risk.
This advisory focuses on:
Strategic positioning and narrative coherence
Understanding airline decision dynamics and constraints
Risk exposure across roadmap, certification, and delivery commitments
Supplier advisory is explicitly separated from airline advisory. Insights are never shared across clients, and no cross-representation occurs.
What this advisory covers
Strategic decision framing
Market and airline-side expectation assessment
Risk identification in roadmap and commitments
What it does not include
Sales support or account pursuit
Bid or proposal development
Representation to airline customers
For Investors & Professional Services Firms
An independent, confidential advisory support to investors and professional advisory firms requiring senior IFEC domain judgment.
This advisory is designed to inform decision-making, challenge assumptions, and interpret risk, not to supplement delivery teams or provide execution support.
Engagements are advisory-only and structured to preserve independence.
Investor advisory engagements are confidential, time-bound or decision-specific and are structured independently from airline or supplier advisory work.
Cross-client insights are never shared, and conflicts are managed conservatively.
What This Advisory Supports
IFEC domain interpretation and decision context
Identification of risk across strategy, roadmap, and execution assumptions
Independent challenge of diligence findings, analyses, or client narratives
Senior-level perspective to inform recommendations or investment decisions
This work is advisory in nature and may be time-bound or decision-specific.
What It Does Not Provide
Investment recommendations
Valuation, financial modelling, or pricing analysis
Deal sourcing, introductions, or transaction support
Representation in negotiations or transactions
IFECtiv does not act in an agency, fiduciary, or placement capacity.
