Based in Farnborough, United Kingdom, i6 Group is a privately held company specializing in the development of cloud-based, digital fuel management technology for the aviation industry. Founded in 2015 by Steve Uhlmann (CEO) and Alex Mattsson (COO), who combined their extensive experience in aviation to support the sector's digital transformation, the company has established itself as a key player in optimizing aviation fuel operations.
The firm's business model is centered on providing a comprehensive software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that digitizes the entire fuel supply chain, from the refinery to the aircraft wing. This platform serves a diverse client base that includes airlines, airports, into-plane agents, and fuel suppliers. By offering real-time data and analytics, i6 enables its customers to enhance operational efficiency, improve transparency, and drive sustainability by reducing both costs and carbon emissions. Key clients include prominent names such as British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Exxon Mobil, Shell, and World Kinect.
The core of i6's offering is its product ecosystem, which includes several key modules. Fusion6 provides real-time management of into-plane refuelling operations, while Reconcile6 simplifies fuel inventory and accounting. A significant feature is the patented eHandshake® technology, which creates a fully paperless and seamless communication link between the flight crew and refuelling staff, increasing accuracy and safety. This technology is deployed at over 170 airports globally, including major hubs like London Heathrow, Amsterdam, and Dubai International. The company generates revenue through its technology and service offerings, which have attracted substantial investment, including a Series A funding round in February 2020 from a syndicate that included International Airlines Group (IAG), Shell, World Fuel Services, and JetBlue Technology Ventures.
