By embedding near real-time actionable insights directly into WorkWave's TimeGate+^® workforce management software, Decision Intelligence provides the metrics and insights designed to help drive businesses towards improved margins and profitability.

Decision Intelligence is more than just a visualization tool; it is the context-aware intelligent engine, purpose-built for the nuances of workforce management industries. Wavelytics Data Factory ingests the raw data from operations, finance, payroll, and compliance, producing clean and actionable information in a packaged data warehouse; Decision Intelligence then analyzes these data to surface immediate insights with the metrics to back them up.

"Decision Intelligence turns the data Timegate+ already captures into a ranked list of what to prioritize while it's still early enough to act," said Kevin Kemmerer, CEO of WorkWave. "It moves our customers from reacting to historical data to proactively taking steps that drive financial goals. By tailoring each hub within Decision Intelligence to specific personas, we empower critical roles within our customers' organizations with the actionable insights to propel the future of their business."

The first of these hubs – the Operations Hub – is now live and ready to use. The Operations Hub is built for Operational Executives, Regional Managers, and Site/Contract Managers/Site Supervisors. It helps surface issues that may be diluting margin or breaching compliance, with the highest impact listed first, allowing users to uncover the 'who, where, and why' details in two clicks. More hubs are coming soon, including Quality & Compliance, Proof of Service, HR, and Payroll.

"As our content hubs roll out, we're looking forward to our customers experiencing the full benefits of Decision Intelligence and using this AI-driven solution to take command of their data," added Kemmerer.

The airline's debut financing in Japan, structured as a Japanese Operating Lease with Call Option, covers three Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft

DOHA, Qatar, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Qatar Airways Group has marked a major milestone in aircraft financing with the signing of its inaugural Japanese Operating Lease with Call Option (JOLCO) transaction, covering three Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft. HSBC and JP Lease Products & Services Co., Ltd. (JLPS) were integral partners in the financing, with HSBC acting as debt arranger and sole lender, and JLPS underwriting and arranging the JOLCO equity.

The signing marks the first of three transactions planned under Qatar Airways Group's inaugural JOLCO programme in Japan, supporting a total of seven aircraft. JLPS is serving as equity arranger across the programme. The transaction establishes the Group's presence in the Japanese aircraft financing market and further strengthens its financial partnerships across Asia.

The transaction represents more than a financing milestone. Qatar Airways Group's entry into the Japanese JOLCO market demonstrates confidence in the airline from a highly selective investor community that supports top-tier airline credits. This first-of-its-kind agreement represents the Group's financial strength, credibility, and ability to attract diversified sources of international capital, and sets a positive precedent for the wider investment community.

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Officer, Hamad Al-Khater, said: "We view the JOLCO market as a strategic long-term funding source and expect to maintain a consistent presence as we finance future fleet investments and growth opportunities."

"This transaction provides Qatar Airways with an important foothold in the Japanese financing market, offering access to a deep pool of capital on extremely attractive financial terms. It further diversifies our funding sources, broadens our investor base, and positions the Group to support its future aircraft financing requirements efficiently and competitively."

JP Lease Products & Services Co., Ltd. President and Chief Executive Officer, Teiji Ishikawa, said: "Japanese investors look first at the credit of the airline. Qatar Airways is a strong credit, and investors in Japan welcome this transaction. We are very pleased to have arranged the equity for the airline's first JOLCO. We do not see this as a single transaction. It is the start of a long-term programme, and we will continue to support Qatar Airways in the Japanese market for many years to come."

HSBC Qatar Chief Executive Officer, Abdul Hakeem Mostafawi, said: "Building on HSBC's longstanding strategic partnership with Qatar Airways Group, HSBC is pleased to support Qatar Airways Group's inaugural JOLCO. Our role as debt arranger and sole lender in this transaction demonstrates our sector expertise and ability to deliver tailored solutions that support fleet expansion, diversify funding sources, and connect leading airlines with global capital."

As Qatar Airways Group continues to expand its fleet and network, it remains focused on diversifying its funding sources and building long-term relationships with financial institutions and investors in Japan and beyond.
