PASSUR's flight, airspace, and airport efficiency solutions
combined with INFORM's hub control and turn-management platform
will enhance the accuracy of important metrics and milestones in a
flight's transition from arrival to departure. The PASSUR solutions
include PASSUR's Estimated-Time-of-Arrival (ETA) predictions;
en-route and terminal airspace constraint predictions; Air Traffic
Management (ATM) key performance indicator alerts; and real-time
surface surveillance and gate conflict alerting. The INFORM
solutions include turn monitoring, prediction of real and potential
bottlenecks in above- and below-wing ground operations, optimized
deployment and allocation of mobile and static resources, and a
suite of equipment localization and mobility options.
The new integrated product will help airlines and airports
successfully minimize the short time intervals between arriving and
departing aircraft. In addition, the product will help forecast
potential ground delays, prevent gate conflicts, out-of-position
ground crews, and unnecessary gate changes, including other last
minute disruptions that can interfere with a smoothly choreographed
arrival-departure sequence.
"We are looking forward to working with PASSUR in leveraging the
proven product portfolios of both of our organizations to deliver a
unique collaborative solution that will help increase hub
efficiency and reduce operating costs," said Thomas Schmidt, INFORM´s Aviation Director.
"The market has been demanding accurate, affordable turn
management solutions and we're pleased to be working with INFORM
GmbH, with their strong global reputation, as part of our
continuing program to reduce the cost of airline operations and
improve the customer experience," said Jim
Barry, President and CEO of PASSUR Aerospace.
