<strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> <strong>2001</strong><br />
Innovation<br />
Europe’s Best Address – this marketing slogan is based in part on our long-standing<br />
reputation as one of the best-equipped airports in Europe<br />
___Many of our systems, for example FANOMOS with its environmental control capabilities,<br />
were developed by <strong>Flughafen</strong> <strong>Wien</strong> AG employees and are in use at many different airports<br />
today. We draw our ideas for innovation from extensive discussions with customers as well as<br />
quality, environmental and noise monitoring, internal and external audits, benchmarking, cooperation<br />
with Austro Control and Austrian Airlines and, last but not least, suggestions from our<br />
workforce. Major innovations in <strong>2001</strong> were:<br />
Simulation tool for passenger transportation<br />
___This model, which is currently under development, will be used to evaluate and optimise<br />
handling procedures and to link these processes together. Our goal is to increase the efficient<br />
use of both human resources and equipment. Passenger transportation has been selected as<br />
the pilot project.<br />
PRIAMOS Handling Management Information<br />
___The cost accounting system for apron and traffic handling – PRIAMOS (Process Induced<br />
Accounting & Monitoring System) Handling Management Information – was completed and<br />
registered with patent authorities in <strong>2001</strong>.<br />
New Development: Catering transport vehicle<br />
___Together with the manufacturer, we have developed a catering transportation vehicle that<br />
will provide a significantly better range of services (stability, loading height etc.) at a much<br />
lower price. Investment: € 1.46 million<br />
COMPLAINTS MODULE for FANOMOS<br />
___On a trial basis, we have installed a new module in the FANOMOS system to support the<br />
collection of statistics on noise complaints. This tool will facilitate the handling and documentation<br />
of individual calls, which can then be compared with actual flyover time.<br />
SYDNEY MODEL<br />
___In close cooperation with the Department of Transport and Regional Services in Canberra<br />
(Australia), the TNIP Model (Transparent Noise Information Package) was adapted to meet the<br />
specific needs of Vienna International Airport. This model will serve as an addition to our<br />
existing system for noise zone calculations and provide information on flyovers and pauses, as<br />
well as data on the number of flights that exceed maximum noise levels.<br />
Secure High-Tech Telecommunications<br />
___Our new fixed-line telecommunications system is based on a multi-location concept and<br />
uses latest technology to provide innovative features such as voice response, CTI, extended<br />
check-back options, and caller lists. We have broadened geographical distribution to increase<br />
security in the event of a disaster – even allowing for site loss – and also increased the number<br />
of emergency telephones significantly.<br />
Informatics<br />
___We took major steps to set the course for future developments in the informatics area.<br />
In conjunction with modernisation of the host system, a fail-safe central disk storage and tape<br />
robot system were installed as key components for the maintenance of mission-critical<br />
operations.<br />
