Airport Management System
The complexity of strategic, operative and economic management of airports and airport holdings has increased over the last few years. To comply with customers requirements, airport operators need to provide flexible and effective resources and structures in order to fulfill the expectations of both aviation and the non-aviation sides.
To fulfill that purpose Symbios developed a flight schedule based forecasting system being the base module for the Airport Management System. The methodology of this product is based on Symbios' long time international project experiences in the aviation industry.
The Airport Management System enables clients and partners worldwide to react to changing conditions of the air traffic market and include it in the airport's short-, medium, and long-term planning processes.
Since the system's architecture is based on a modular approach, clients can decide what model best fits their individual requirements.
Flight Schedule Forecast
Basic Module
- Scenario based forecasting tool to generate short term oriented flight schedule traffic forecasts
- Flexible forecasting time horizons, data structures and analyzing levels
- Model based on long time experience in the aviation industry
Long Term Forecast
Module
- Scenario-based, demand-driven econometric forecasting model
- Bottom-up vs. top-down methods, including external influencing factors (e.g. ticket fares, tourism development, economic growth, etc.)
- Flight Event Generator: automated creation of flight schedules based on long term forecasting results
Revenue Planning
Module
- Automated and dynamic aviation revenue and business planning based on traffic forecasting scenarios
- Simulation of alternative tariff and incentive scenarios (e.g. emission-, peak-, or luggage-based pricing) based on statistical data or forecasting scenarios
- Benchmarking of worldwide airport charges and tariff structures
Capacity Planning
Module
- Interface between traffic forecasting and capacity planning
- Dynamic evaluation of traffic peaks
- Various analyzing levels focusing on air- and landside capacity restrictions
- Simulation of capacity scenarios (e.g. effects of airline/ concourse shifts at an airport)
Non-Aviation Planning
Module
- Combination of the airport's and the concessionaire's data into one single database
- "Total Flight Value Concept" as an indicator to evaluate aviation and non-aviation revenues per flight
- Automated non-aviation optimization (e.g. pricing of retail property / shop rents, advertisements, parking lots, etc.)
- Basis for operational decisions taking into account the "Total Flight Value" (e.g. to determine future gate allocation)
Traffic Statistics
Module
- Innovative tool for analyzing statistical traffic data and setting up customized reports
- Real-time analysis of traffic data
- Standard reports for „ad-hoc" queries; flexible „Query-Builder" for creating individual queries and reports
Market and Route Potentials
Module
- Highly flexible tool to support route acquisition processes
- Automated analysis of a route's potential, including overall market potential, base route potential and leakage capture
- Calculation of schedule connectivity, stimulation and market growth potential
- Evaluation of the route's economic return and profitability (P&L, passenger fares, etc.)
