Indra Successfully Completes the Commissioning of Air Traffic Control Centres in Four Different Countries in a Single Week
The company has put its advanced air traffic management systems into service in Argentina, India, Indonesia, and Peru, demonstrating its ability to simultaneously execute critical projects alongside air navigation service providers from around the world
These new control centres will help improve the safety, efficiency, and operational capacity of the airspace in some of the fastest growing and most complex areas of the planet
Indra will strengthen its global leadership of air traffic management (ATM) with the entry into operation of these four centres, which will join the 300-plus others across five continents where its technology has been deployed
Indra has reached a new milestone in air traffic management and demonstrated its global capacity to undertake simultaneous critical projects by completing the commissioning of four control centres in Argentina, India, Indonesia, and Peru in a single week.
The company has developed these projects and supported all the implementation, validation, and commissioning phases in partnership with the Air Navigation Service Provider (ANSP) in each of the countries - the Argentine Air Navigation Company (EANA), the Airports Authority of India (AAI), AirNav Indonesia, and the Peruvian Corporation of Commercial Airports and Aviation (CORPAC).
The new systems now allow for integrated route, approach, and tower management through advanced technology that enhances the safety, efficiency, and capacity of the airspace.
More specifically, in Argentina, Indra has put into service the control centre system at Ezeiza International Airport, the busiest in the country, as part of the modernization plan to unify the five Argentinian control centres under the same technological platform and provide coverage to the entire national territory.
Likewise, in Indonesia, the company has completed the entry into operation of the control centre system in Jakarta, which is tasked with the management of about 40% of the air traffic in the country, together with the commissioning of the new voice communications system.
In India, Indra has implemented the system due to serve the new Noida/Jewar International Airport, which has been integrated into the main control centre in Delhi to enhance interoperability in one of the world’s fastest-growing regions in terms of air traffic.
Finally, in Peru, it has deployed the system set to serve the national control centre, Lima International Airport, and a network of remote towers, which will also incorporate a new voice communications system to improve operational coordination across the country.
“The commissioning of four air traffic management systems in a single week demonstrates Indra Group’s ability to successfully execute highly complex projects alongside air navigation service providers from different countries. Each of these projects addresses specific operational needs, contributes to modernizing the airspace, and reflects the shared commitment of our teams and customers to increasingly safe and efficient air traffic management capable of coping with future growth”, stated Víctor Martínez, Executive Vice President of ATM at Indra.
In the last month, Indra has put into operation the first radar for the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in Putnam (Oklahoma), as part of the historic program to upgrade the country’s radar system that envisages the deployment of 185 devices. Moreover, it has furthered the deployment of new radars in the United Kingdom, Turkey, and Colombia, and other international strategic projects, thanks to the coordinated work of its teams and specialists across the world. With decades of experience executing complex projects, technology deployed in over 300 control centres worldwide, and involvement in over 90% of daily flights, Indra Group is continuing to reinforce its standing as one of the global leaders of air traffic management, with solutions that encompass more than 33% of the world’s Flight Information Regions (FIRs).
