This partnership provides a deeply integrated offering of Airport Hive and Ink Cloud to replace Airport Management Systems and legacy Common Use in a full turnkey solution. The solution enables airports to rapidly innovate and modernise away from legacy systems, whilst delivering greater flexibility both operationally and commercially.
“Airports are often restricted by legacy technologies, making it costly and difficult to facilitate the connected journey demanded by today’s traveller. Our collaboration with Azinq enables airports to more easily unify data across the operation, to drive better decision-making and improved quality of service. Uniquely, the combined platforms also help airports to differentiate by readying themselves for the Offer-Order enabled airlines of tomorrow,” stated Blaine Powell, Chief Sales Officer of Ink.
Chris Taylor, Managing Partner of Azinq, added, “Our Airport Hive suite is a powerful set of applications that herald a new wave of Airport Management Systems, especially for replacing Airport Operational Databases (AODB). We embrace event-driven microservices and API technology for seamless integration, unmatched flexibility, and top-tier scalability. Our aim is to boost operational efficiency, foster collaboration, help monetise data and elevate passenger experiences. We feel this exciting partnership with Ink is a natural fit for us.”
Ink and Azinq’s cloud-based platforms make their solutions quick and cost-effective to deploy and manage. The collaboration enables smart airport operations while helping reduce operational costs and unlock non-aviation revenue through advanced retailing capabilities.
