Building readiness at a leading European airport

Challenge

Following strong passenger growth, the airport’s main challenges revolved around new regulatory requirements, Risk Management demands, and the increasing number of stakeholders involved in Crisis Management. As such, there was an identified need for a system to:

• Easily update and report incident data in accordance with the latest requirements of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
• Create a holistic and consistent view in managing risks across the airport’s operations.
• Provide a mobile solution for crisis management and communication.
