Preston Aviation Solutions, a Boeing
wholly owned subsidiary, has been commissioned by Malaysia Airports to replace the existing gate-allocation system at Kuala
Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) with its dynamic airport resource management system – Airport Solutions.
Airport Solutions will be installed at Malaysia’s premier airport hub to assist the team at KLIA’s airport operations to better manage the forecasted growth and ongoing
expansion of the airport. Preston’s integrated suite of decision support tools will provide KLIA with a sophisticated and reliable resource management system, which will
meet the day-to-day operations and strategic planning requirements of its gate and remote parking resources, check-in desks and baggage carousels.
"Allocating the right resources at the right time is a challenging task for any major international airport hub, which is why a system like Airport Solutions will enable us to
confidently handle KLIA’s current and future resource demands," said Dato’ Seri Bashir Ahmad, Managing Director of Malaysia Airports.
"Preston’s new resource management system will also assist us to evaluate past, current and future passenger processing operations at KL International Airport."
The implementation of Airport Solutions at KLIA commenced in February and is expected to be operational by September 2005.
Airport Solutions is currently in use by many of the world’s leading international airports including: Auckland International Airport, New Zealand; Bangkok International
Airport, Thailand, Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong; Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted International Airports, London; Narita Airport, Japan; Stockholm-Arlanda International
Airport, Stockholm; and Vancouver International Airport; Canada.
