BAS CEO Mohamed Khalil said: “As we phase out manual and paper-based operations, the SITA solution offers the next generation of mobile resource management systems that will enable us to significantly improve our planning and rostering activities.

“The system will optimise resource deployment for ground handling management at BIA while also assisting us in enhancing planning, operational efficiency, employee management, and customer service.”

The agents will have mobile access through the new system to enable data entry at the time and place of their operations.

All BAS staff working on shift rosters will also have access to the system.

The new airport management system will help BAS assess all the ground handling service level agreements of its customers and provide a quick service to the invoicing cycle.
