New IATA ADRM 12th Edition: planning for airport construction delivery
Traditionally, airport designers define the completed project but typically overlook the complexities of construction and associated impacts to ongoing operations. Therefore, construction contractors are often left with developing strategies to address issues of maintaining operational continuity, capacity and passenger experience. With increasing pressure to achieve cost and time efficiency, project delivery regularly compromises passenger service levels during construction. Integrating construction planning into the design process can minimize disruptions and lower project costs. The new IATA ADRM 12th Edition explores strategies for optimizing construction phasing during the planning phase, ensuring seamless operations and avoiding costly, last-minute adjustments during the build phase.
The audience will learn:
- How the IATA ADRM 12th Edition guides the optimization of construction phasing during the planning phase
- The benefits of early construction planning in avoiding costly delays and last-minute changes that compromise the end-state design
- How integrating construction planning into design improves operational continuity and passenger experience during the delivery of airport projects
- Strategies to minimize service disruptions and maintain capacity during airport construction
- Methods for reducing construction time and costs by planning logistics during the design process
