The overarching objective of the Go Forward Strategy was to continually accelerate the gains made in customer relationship management (CRM), customer service, operations and the maintenance, repair and overhaul of their jets. What Continental was after was the ability to unify their entire operation into a highly integrated, coordinated customer-based platform that could be used for streamlining every aspect of their operations to exceed customer expectations and deliver exceptional value (Watson, Wixom, Hoffer, Anderson-Lehman, Reynolds, 2006). The Go Forward strategy further galvanized Continental unto a very focused strategy for ensuring their Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) turned into a Powerful catalyst for customer-driven change (Watson, Wixom, Hoffer, Anderson-Lehman, Reynolds, 2006).

In addition to all of these benefits, the company skyrocketed in customer experience ratings and customer satisfaction polls, becoming over time the most respected and favored airline (Watson, Wixom, Hoffer, Anderson-Lehman, Reynolds, 2006). Another significant benefit was the ability to integrate many diverse sets of customer, financial and operational data into a single system of record, which gave Continental a very significant competitive advantage over competitors.

All of these benefits are also allowing the Continental culture to heal from three bankruptcies and become stronger as a result, which has also given the entire company a chance to resurrect itself and serve customers more effectively than ever before.
