Kronos plays matchmaker for U.K. airline's flight crew

Kronos Inc. reports that one of its products has been selected by EasyJet Airline Co. Ltd. to improve its crew-planning processes.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

EasyJet, a division of London-based easyJet Plc, selected Kronos Altitude Pairing software to automate and simplify the planning process of matching up flight crew members.

Chelmsford-based Kronos, founded in 1977, develops work-force management software. The company was acquired for $1.8 billion in June 2007 by affiliates of the private equity firm Hellman & Friedman Capital Partners VI LP, which operates offices in San Francisco, New York and London. That same month, Kronos acquired Captor, a privately held Belgian provider of work-force management products.

In October 2007, Kronos also acquired Newton's Deploy Solutions Inc., a privately held company that developed employee selection and hiring software.
