Business Problem
Contract management forms an integral part of the airport revenue model. Be it for new development projects, refurbishment, or preventive and break down maintenance, there is an impending need to digitize the contractor work execution process in order to improve operational efficiency. Few of the major challenges encountered today are:
- Significant delays in issuing NOCs and Permits to Work.
- Process variations across Landside, Terminal and Airside Operations leading to siloed systems and lack of transparency.
