Users can create flights on the fly and immediately producean invoice to be remitted to the pilot for payment before theflight departs; improving cash flow.

BUSINESS AND OPERATIONALADMINISTRATION Accounts, privileges, and resourceallocations are ascertained andmodified without error; throughpurposed, interactive, graphicalutilities. This gives each employee anappropriate degree of authorisedaccess; while the current deploymentcharacteristics of resources such asgates, stands, and check-in desks canbe instantly determined and, wherenecessary, adjusted. Meanwhile,charge-calculation is managed with thehighest accuracy and visibility of detail.

CUSTOMER SERVICE Passengers’ well-being is supportedthrough a consistent attentiveness totheir persons, possessions, anddispositions. Thus, passengerexperience is improved: through theeffective management of check-in; ofbaggage-handling; and of flight statuscommunication, through accurate,up-to-date information-displays.

BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE Historic levels of operational efficiencyare clearly identifiable; by means ofcomprehensive, detailed, interactivecharts and strategic dashboards. Thus,efficiency-shortfalls are quicklydetermined and programmes ofimprovement more easily targetedand designed.

In a world where passenger-numbersare rapidly increasing, Ultra offers anew vision of the airport: one thatentails the highest possibleresponsiveness to customer needs.Passenger-orientation; entertainment-availability; the customised provisionof information and assistance; thespontaneous modification ofprocedures and locations, accordingto changes in demand: all suchaspects of a modern airport must nowgo through a qualitative revolution;this itself being possible only througha massive efficiency-increase in termsof basic operational execution.

Ultra has designed technologies fordeployment across the entire airport;thereby encompassing its five,constituent Spheres of Efficiency:

OPERATIONAL DATA All airport operational data iscontinuously gathered, maintained,and accurately updated with absolutereliability; and is thus made availablefor instantaneous access at any time.This is achieved through UltraDB,which provides secure data-retentionwith complete reliability, availability,and serviceability; and through theUltra Integration Broker, which

gathers data-elements originatingfrom other sources. Additionally,business-logic routines allow newdata-elements to be derived from old,so that operationally interrelatedvalues can be kept in synchronicity.

SITUATIONAL AWARENESS The state of the entire airport is madecomprehensively clear, moment bymoment, and with fine granularity.The structured, tabular representationprovided by data viewers allowsrelationships between key elementsto be recognised at a glance; whileground-radar enabled, animatedairport maps enable the visualpinpointing of physical resources andtheir current status.

HUB AIRPORT DIFFERENTIATIONVIA SMOOTH AND EFFICIENT BAG REFLIGHTINGMishandled baggage has beenestimated to cost airports, theirairlines, and ground handlers over$3bn each year. Furthermore, thereputational damage from passengerswho suffer mishandled bags is longlived and widely voiced causingfurther detriment to airports andairlines. Resolving the operationalissues caused by mishandled bags isvery complex and costly. The UltraTrakReflight module enables hub airportsto truly differentiate themselvesthrough the provision of smooth andefficient bag reflighting services.

IMPROVED PASSENGEREXPERIENCE AT LESS COST TO THE OPERATORCustomer studies have shown thatthe UltraTrak Reflight modulereduced process time by more than90% for baggage reflighting;improving efficiency and savingmoney by minimising the number ofprocess steps needed to reflight abag. Customers using UltraTrakReflight are finding their reputation isenhanced following direct feedbackfrom passenger’s who are delightedto find their bags have made it withthem following very short transfers.A customer who had previouslyprocessed all their reflights at the endof the shift has found that UltraTrakReflight enables them to processbags continuously throughout theday. Consequently when passengersreach their destination they find thatwhilst their bag had missed itsconnection it is already on its way.

The passenger then has the choice ofwaiting at the airport to collect theirbags, which can reduce repatriationcosts, or having their bag delivered tothem when it arrives. This speed andefficiency both impresses thepassenger and protects the airlinesreputation. At one European hub, upto 70% of bags are reflightedautomatically or via a remotereflighting screen without everrequiring extra handling.
