Smart Building Design
Smart Building Design
As the evolution of the airport gains momentum, alongside the implementation of new technologies and regulations (e.g. EPBD IV and CSRD), an integrated and smart approach is paramount. This enables an airport to unlock its full potential for sustainabile solutions and future opportunities.
The Smart approach supports digitalisation, data collection and -use and connects systems, unlocking new possibilities throughout an airport ecosystem.
Passenger Centricity
Customer satisfaction and quality passenger service are key for a positive airport experience. Smart technology can improve health and well-being inside an airport. For example, a seamless passenger journey provides information in a clear and easy manner, thereby reducing travel stress.
Deerns provides an understanding of the challenges and ambitions of various airport stakeholders through workshops, followed up with functional design proposals. This serves as the solid foundation for selecting suitable technology and/or strategy.
Operational efficiency
Although airports are not a destination, they provide the infrastructure to support operations to get to locations. Optimizing operational efforts and supporting the hard-working employees driving it support this function. Smart technology can provide data and insights on activity inside the terminal and building to improve safety, security and facility management. System integration and algorithms enhance building performance, maintenance and sustainability. The Deerns Quickscan enables airports to identify existing (smart) infrastructure, identify the gaps, create a technical design and support on market research and pilots.
Business Optimisation
Corporate governance and financial health support passengers as well as airport operations. Data quality, availability and reliability enable transparency, reporting and informed decision making to this end. This leads to enhanced branding and tenants’ relations, while at the same time reducing operational costs, saving energy and improving maintenance & performance. Deerns works with you to identify your next steps to set up your (smart) strategy, cost indications, business cases, IT security & data governance. We also match these with industry certifications & regulations.
