Washington Dulles International Airport Contracts for PASSUR Airport Management Business Intelligence Reports
Provide daily visibility into critical performance metrics
Greenwich, CT, February 4, 2009 — PASSUR Aerospace, Inc. (OTC: PSSR.OB) announced today that Washington Dulles International Airport, as a result of a competitive solicitation, has contracted for PASSUR® Airport Management Business Intelligence Reports™, which provide timely, summary insights into key business metrics that are driven by aviation operations, such as gate and runway utilization, landing fees, and passenger counts.
“In this time of industry fluctuation, airport executives need a way to stay informed about their most critical performance indicators and business metrics on a daily basis,” says Jim Barry, President and CEO or PASSUR Aerospace. “We are tapping our unique database of aviation statistics, combining that with our ability to create automated reporting tools, to provide airport managers greater focus on and control over their operation, and the level of visibility and control they need to effectively track and execute on their aviation business strategy.”
The PASSUR Aviation Statistics Reporting Program Effective airport management today requires access to accurate, detailed and timely statistics of the airfield and airspace. Traditionally, airports have lacked a single, authoritative source of independent data on their operation, relying instead on multiple overlapping – and often conflicting – reports from a variety of third parties. PASSUR Airport Management Business Intelligence Reports give airport managers the information and insights they need, organized and processed in a way that supports intelligent and informed decision-making, strategic planning and analysis, and tactical responses to changing conditions. They provide formatted, summarized and calculated reports of critical operational metrics, for a snapshot view of key airport performance indicators– automatically emailed daily, weekly or monthly to airport management. The program also includes the option for a rich statistical data feed into Airport Operational Database (AODB) systems.
The initial set of Airport Management Business Intelligence Reports includes: • Operations Activity Report: a summary and detail of operations activity (domestic, international, regional and GA) • Runway Utilization Report: runway usage per hour and by aircraft type • Gate Utilization and Estimated Passenger Volume Report: gate utilization by carrier, including calculated passenger counts • Volume Trend Report: flights and seat counts, week over week/month over month
