An innovative system goes beyond standard facility services

Utilizing cutting-edge technology and comprehensive support, ABM ConnectTM for Aviation maximizes airport operations for optimal efficiency while committing to strict performance requirements.

Airports around the world are feeling a wide array of pressures. They’re facing industry-wide staffing shortages and budget challenges, all while dealing with an increase of daily travelers. While traditional facility services are based on a
fixed schedule, it’s simply not enough to keep up with the ever-changing and urgent needs of an airport and its travelers. This is important because as we know, traveler experience is a crucial KPI for airport leaders.

IoT technology for real-time intelligence

Beacons for real-time intelligence

Our IoT suite, including beacons, customer feedback devices, real-time flight data, heat maps, and consumable sensors, optimizes work by demand. Now work order status, resource allocations, and audit results can all be viewed in real time. The result — increased visibility of performance metrics, which drives productivity, efficiency, and optimizes resource allocation.

Demand-based resourcing and inspections

Instead of traditional scheduling, ABM Connect leverages demand-based resourcing. This means tasks can be prioritized based on real-time flight schedules throughout the day, so problems are identified and resolved faster. Once servicing is complete, clients can access inspection results for greater efficiency and transparency.

Flight data integration and faster response times

Irregular operations, weather, canceled flights, and the spike of summer, holiday, and other seasonal travel means cleaning and maintenance operations are under great stress. ABM Connect automatically dispatches the nearest skilled and equipped team member to specific gates at exactly the right time to complete unscheduled work orders.

Insights anytime, anywhere

Actionable insights are available when you need them through dashboards, accessible from our data intelligence platform for visibility into service delivery — ABM Connect. Clients can access data in real-time or generate reports hourly, daily, weekly, quarterly, or annually for transparency into your facility.

Insights include:

  • Flight data
  • Demand-based cleaning (leveraging space usage, flight data, sensors)
  • Services provided
  • Work order priority and status
