Heathrow is determined to provide efficient and valued customer service, which is emphasised through its ‘One Heathrow’ system and stated in its sustainability strategy.

The relationship extension, according to Capgemini, will build on the work begun by Capgemini and Salesforce in 2018 to carry out Heathrow’s commercial digital strategy.

Alongside DevOps, Salesforce Data Cloud and Marketing Cloud will be included in the new arrangement to improve the use of customer data and analytics.
