Ground Service Providers
The benefits of digitized asset management
are many.
According to Matthias Moulinier,
product director for ADVEEZ, better
knowledge on GSE usage and maintenance
can increase the lifetime and
performance of the assets, prevent
accidents through better maintenance
and safer driving and decrease
asset depreciation by keeping vehicles
working longer.
Benefits also include a safer working
environment, cost savings from energy
and fuel management, better and safer
driver training and decreased greenhouse
gas emissions.
As the turnover and aircraft rotations
are increasing in most of the
airports around the world, Moulinier
says it is critical for ground handlers to
enhance operations and safety during
shifts. But most important is getting
reliable data that can be used immediately
to be able to be reactive during
actions, he explains.
" Finding quickly the right GSE for
the right gates at the right moment is
critical to be efficient during perfectly
timed operations, " Moulinier says.
" Accurate and real-time information on
the assets are crucial, particularly with
last-minute changes with aircrafts. "
According to Read, common questions
about asset management technology
include " How does the technology
help ground service providers improve
their business? " and " How can the savings
from those efficiencies be passed
on to the airlines for whom they work? "
Then, he says there are more specific
requirements.
" Can you reduce how much fuel I
use, or can you help me manage my
green commitments/emissions, or
can you improve safety? How can I get
my staff and/or assets to be more efficient? "
he says.
" We have some smaller, more specialized
customers with less assets

Even if your source gas pressure drops below 300-PSI
(vehicles, GSE and non-motorized equipment)
but they require a very high level
of precision, performance and consistency
for the operation, " Read adds, noting
examples of specialized needs may
include aircraft fueling, air conditioning
and catering. " Being able to digitally
report in real time, record and audit
precise information on the arrival and
departure times from the aircraft turnaround
site, as well as the exact contents
delivered to the aircraft is critical
for meeting contractual performance. "

Telematics and Beyond
Asset management allows fleet managers
to increase asset usage and value
over time to get the best ROI. However,
Moulinier explains, telematics systems,
which are usually placed directly on the
asset, are the hardware that connect
and send critical data from an asset to a
cloud or web platform.
Elements of asset management
technology have been in use by some
airlines and ground handlers for a decade
or so, according to Read, adding use
of the technology has gone beyond the
basics of locating a vehicle on a map.
" Ultimately, you need to know in
much more detail, down to the nearest
meter or half meter where is the
vehicle, who is driving it, how fast is
it going - all this information in real
time, " Read says.
