Present Challenges
Briefly, the challenges can be laid out in the following priority:-
- Automization & Integration of Airport Operations - IT automation
of airport operations management that would allow managing operations from one or
several points using a unique integrated network system. A centralized location
for all operational information generated manually or automatically by external
parties, the system would cater for all airport data including “real time” and history-based
information for every stakeholder at the airport.
- IT Modernization - IT modernization represents the changes that
every organization must face as the generations of technology, skills and expectations
are inevitably replaced by the next ones. Therefore CAA must begin to prepare for
the inevitable impact this will have.
