Obsolescence Management
Ensuring reliability and longevity of baggage handling systems
Reliable baggage handling systems (BHS) are crucial for efficient airport operations. Despite advances in component reliability and longevity, failures can still occur. This is especially true of electrical and control equipment. Reasons include aging, overload, and other stresses. Spare parts are often needed but may no longer be available due to discontinued production by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and the resulting lack of availability in the market. A proactive approach to obsolescence management effectively addresses this issue and contributes significantly to maintaining and extending system lifetime.
We are a trusted global service provider for your BHS. Committed to enhancing customer value, we have developed obsolescence management services to proactively support long-lived systems. This allows you to reliably maintain your existing BHSs and ensure end-to-end sustainability.
