AG is digitally transforming airport operations
Updating legacy technologies creates airport flexibility Like many players in the airport sector , Fraport has experienced a few unprecedented years - ones that have been somewhat detrimental to its global operations . However , as reported by many other sectors , the silver lining of the past two years is that COVID-19 has only sped up the digital transformation process , which Standhaft states is one of the focal points for the organisation , post-COVID .
“ We had to go to some saving rounds in terms of reducing cost and headcount . And we want to make sure that , moving into the future , we keep maximum flexibility due to all the uncertainties our time brings , in order to make sure that we maintain the highest level of operations moving forward ,” Standhaft says .
