Overview
Amach Aviation AWS Landing Zone
The Aviation AWS Landing Zone is a Professional Services engagement delivered end-to-end by Amach's certified AWS professionals. As an AWS Partner with deep aviation industry expertise, Amach implements a secure, compliant, and governed cloud foundation tailored to the operational and regulatory demands of the global aviation sector - covering airlines, airports, MROs, ground handlers, aircraft lessors, cargo operators, and component suppliers. Built on AWS best practices, the solution removes the complexity of multi-account design, security configuration, and governance setup - delivering a production-ready platform that goes beyond what generic solutions like the AWS Landing Zone Accelerator (LZA) provide by incorporating aviation-specific compliance frameworks, operational patterns, and regulatory controls from day one.
Engagement Phases and Deliverables
The engagement spans three structured phases:
Phase 1 - Discovery and Design (Weeks 1–2)
- Stakeholder workshops to capture requirements, compliance obligations, and integration needs
- Target-state architecture design document covering multi-account structure, network topology, and security controls
- Compliance mapping to aviation regulatory standards
Phase 2 - Build and Configuration (Weeks 3–5)
- Deployed multi-account landing zone with governance guardrails
- Network infrastructure with isolated environments and connectivity
- Security baseline with encryption, logging, and continuous compliance monitoring
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC) repositories for all deployed components
Phase 3 - Knowledge Transfer and Handover (Week 6)
- Operational runbooks and architecture documentation
- Training sessions for internal cloud and operations teams
- IaC repositories and compliance evidence packs handed over to client ownership
Amach's aviation credentials span the world's largest airline groups, including IAG and Lufthansa Groups. Typical engagements complete in 6 weeks — a fraction of the time required to build an aviation-compliant cloud environment from scratch.
Key AWS Services
- AWS Organizations - centralised account management, billing consolidation, and policy-based controls across aviation business units
- AWS Control Tower - automated landing zone setup with guardrails enforcing compliance with aviation regulations
- AWS IAM Identity Centre - secure, role-based access for staff, contractors, and partners
- Amazon VPC and AWS Networking Services - isolated, secure network environments with fine-grained traffic control
- AWS CloudTrail and Amazon CloudWatch - detailed logging, monitoring, and audit readiness
- AWS KMS and AWS Config - encryption enforcement, continuous compliance monitoring, and configuration oversight
- Amazon S3, AWS Lambda, and Amazon RDS - enabling innovation while maintaining resilience and compliance
AI-Accelerated Deployment with Claude Code and Kiro
Amach's team uses Claude Code (Anthropic's agentic AI coding CLI) and Kiro (AWS's spec-driven agentic IDE) to accelerate deployment. Both tools natively understand HCL, YAML, and Python, enabling faster configuration of landing zone components and aviation-specific extensions without compromising governance. These tools are also available to client engineering teams post-handover for continued rapid iteration.
Scope and Prerequisites
What buyers must provide:
- An existing AWS account (or willingness to create one)
- Nominated technical stakeholders available for discovery workshops
- Details of existing identity providers and network connectivity requirements
- Relevant compliance documentation and regulatory obligations
Available as a bundle with the Landing Zone:
- Application migration and/or modernisation
What is excluded:
- Ongoing managed services (available separately)
- Third-party tool licensing
Aviation Use Cases
- Passenger Disruption Management - integrate operational data with analytics to manage delays and re-bookings in real time
- Predictive Maintenance - monitor aircraft health and predict component failures using IoT and analytics services
- Cargo Tracking and Security - streamline global cargo operations with secure data sharing and automated compliance reporting
- Ground Operations Optimisation - improve resource allocation and turnaround times through centralised, data-driven platforms
- Leasing and Asset Management - securely manage aircraft records and leasing agreements with partners and regulators
- Supply Chain Integration - connect component suppliers, MROs, and operators through a unified cloud environment
The Aviation AWS Landing Zone provides a proven foundation for mission-critical workloads and aviation-specific applications — empowering organisations to strengthen security, maintain compliance, and accelerate digital transformation.
Highlights
- **Trusted by the World's Largest Airline Groups** – Amach's aviation credentials span the world's biggest airline groups, including IAG and Lufthansa Group, alongside major airports and a global PSS SaaS provider. The Aviation AWS Landing Zone is delivered in 6 weeks — a fraction of the time required to build an aviation-compliant cloud environment from scratch.
- **Secure, Compliant Foundation** – Pre-configured with AWS Control Tower, IAM Identity Centre, KMS, and Config to enforce governance, security, and regulatory compliance across aviation workloads from day one — no baseline build required.
- **AI-Accelerated Deployment** – Amach's PS team uses Claude Code and Kiro to configure and extend the landing zone faster, cutting IaC delivery time significantly. Both tools are available to client engineering teams post-handover for continued rapid iteration.and customisation time significantly.

Post-Deployment Support
Post-deployment support is a paid service delivered by Amach's AWS-certified support team. Two tiers are available:
Business – For organisations with moderate or growing AWS usage. Includes 24/7 access to AWS-certified Cloud Support Engineers, unlimited cases and contacts, contextual architectural guidance, and AWS Support Automation runbooks for self-service resolution.
Enterprise – For business-critical or complex workloads. Includes everything in Business, plus a designated Technical Account Manager (TAM), deep architectural reviews, proactive security reviews, faster SLA for critical issues, and proactive FinOps guidance.
Cases are submitted through the Amach support portal. Response time commitments by severity:
- P1 Critical (business critical): 15 minutes (Enterprise)
- P2 Urgent (production down): 1 hour
- P3 High (production impaired): 4 hours
- P4 Medium (system impaired): 12 hours
- P5 Low (general guidance): 24 hours
Escalation
Critical issues are escalated through your dedicated Amach Account Manager and TAM. A built-in escalation path to AWS is available when required.
During the Engagement
Throughout delivery, your Amach project team provides direct communication channels and regular status updates. Knowledge transfer sessions ensure internal teams can operate and extend the platform independently after handover.
