Collins Aerospace and Materna IPS have signed a memorandum of understanding to work together to provide passenger processing for airlines and airports around the world. This focus on creating value from data is a key aspect of this collaborative approach and will result in increased efficiencies and enhanced passenger experiences.
“Materna IPS’s self-service solutions are in line with increasing demand for a full end-to-end self-service journey and complement Collins’ commitment to delivering the next generation of digital solutions to the global aviation ecosystem,” said Rakan Khaled, General Manager, Airport Solutions at Collins Aerospace.
Materna IPS is an international service provider for automated passenger handling for airlines and airports, providing self-service hardware, software implementations and service delivery and maintenance.
Collins’ Connected Aviation Solutions provide a connected, seamless and sustainable airport experience with a wide variety of software and hardware solutions for airport operations, to include passenger processing and baggage management. All are designed to quickly move travellers from the front door of the airport to the boarding gate for their flight.
Airports and airlines will be able to optimise their passenger processing using the Materna / Collins integrated solution sets, which integrate key data points to monitor, adapt and improve visibility of their operations. The companies have already started to collaborate on several recent proposals for current and prospective customers.
