Optimisation, evaluation
and documentation of
Airport processes

Would you like your customers and employees to be more satisfied?
Would you like to re-evaluate and realign your operational processes?

The handling of aircraft, passengers, baggage and freight requires a large number of sub-process steps from different partners. Every change in official regulations, airline requirements, airport operator infrastructure or handling processes has an impact on interfaces and thus on the overall process. The current changes in air traffic due to the effects of COVID19, foreseeable adjustments to airport and handling processes to comply with “social distancing” and a sustained trend towards digitalisation will have massive effects on resources, capacities, processes and process interfaces. The introduction of new procedures, the optimisation of processes including the coordination with process partners and infrastructural framework conditions up to the implementation during the existing live operation pose enormous challenges for everyone involved in aircraft handling.

OUR SERVICE

for your airport processes

With our operational know-how, many best practice solutions and benchmark data, we support you in the digitalisation, optimisation and documentation of (airport) processes across the entire process chain.

Optimisation of passenger security controls

Passenger controls are often the bottleneck of an airport. Due to the legal and official requirements, the process of passenger control takes up a large proportion of the total time of the check-in process. Especially in passenger control, capacitive challenges such as passage frequencies or space requirements can be influenced by digitized solutions. Based on technical requirements, space availability, process partners, staffing specifications and process times, we compare analysis results with industry-wide best practice solutions and develop optimisation potential with you. Be it by adapting queuing zones, implementing the latest technology or changing control processes.

Terminal and Airport Design Reviews

We see airports as a holistic process in which the needs of all partners should be taken into account in order to increase performance and efficiency. On the basis of our operational experience, we recognize operational pitfalls and bottlenecks in the design and can thus point out problems before the implementation of infrastructural measures, whose subsequent adjustments would result in high costs or have a negative impact on processes and thus capacity. From checking the routing to calculating requirements for queuing areas to capacity planning for passenger controls, we check your design concept for operational feasibility.

Creation and optimisation of handling processes e.g. Self-baggage drop off or Self-hubbing

Both the optimisation of existing handling processes and the coordination and implementation of new processes (such as self-bagging drop-off, self-hubbing or self-boarding) are time-consuming and complex due to the large number of process partners and process interfaces. From process development to coordination and mediation between process partners, OpsConnect offers a wide range of support services for successful process implementation.
