Our Approach
1
Discovery & Assessment
We analyze current airport processes, passenger flow, IT systems, vendor landscape, and operational constraints to understand where biometrics will add the greatest impact.
2
Strategy, Architecture & Business Case
We define the digital identity roadmap, data flows, compliance requirements, financial modelling, and measurable operational outcomes.
3
Solution Design & Vendor Engagement
We deliver detailed functional and technical specifications, user flows, and integration points.
We manage vendor engagements, RFPs, demos, technical evaluations, and contract negotiation.
4
Deployment, Integration & Optimization
We support installation, testing, performance tuning, lighting/environment optimization, and final acceptance across kiosks, SBD, gates, and lounges.
5
Continuous Improvement
We monitor results, refine matching performance, and support future expansion (e.g., identity wallet, mobile enrolment, digital bag drops).
