Airport facility management services are in demand from
aviation asset owners with airport holdings, both infrastructure and service
related. These services are highly sought from firms with direct airport
management experience.
What Are The Most
Important Aspects?
Airport management and integrated services are all
about a specific and pre-defined set of requirements which are provided by an
experienced management company on behalf of an asset owner. The aviation asset owner may be a public
entity such as a municipality or authority or it may be a private entity with
institutional capital such as an alternative asset manager or family office.
The breadth of services can vary greatly from turnkey complete airport
management to specialized services based on specific facilities such as
terminals (commercial and general aviation), hangars, or on-airport services
such as FBO, MRO and ACM services.
The management services are required at both general
aviation and commercial airports and airports of varying sizes from regional
reliever airports to international hubs. The specialized companies performing
these services may also be responsible for various support services such as
terminal management, aircraft ground handling and facility maintenance.
They may specialize in different aspects of the airport
experience from core infrastructure to on-airport services. Some airport
facility management services are provided through engagements directly
with the airport sponsors whereas others are engaged by other asset owners like
institutional capital firms, airport tenants etc.
The Need for
Specialized Services
Most of the requirements mentioned above require a
great deal of experience and a proven track record in aviation and airport
management. Companies that are involved in general facility management in other
industries often do not the regulatory requirements and vagaries associated
with the aviation industry.
The most critical item for an aviation
management firm is bringing experienced human capital to the project. An
experienced aviation management team can efficiently transform operations
without the time and expense of a steep learning curve.
There are companies which have the requisite depth and
breadth of experience and capabilities to provide all potential services which
may be needed whereas others may be limited to certain specialized services.
Regardless, they should have a proven track record providing comparable
services at similar size airports.
