The Airport Authority of India (AAI) has executed a few proactive ways to deal with upgradation of its operations and guarantee the smooth working of air terminals across the nation. India is quickly catching up to the rest of the world. The great infrastructure it has been building in recent years drives this growth. India is experiencing major infrastructure improvements and trans-formative projects, which will become key success drivers for the country. The aviation sector, which has had a head start on infrastructure transformation, is poised for more innovations as well.

One of the challenges for aviation growths has been providing connectivity to smaller centers and improving facilities in locations that have outgrown their current size. That’s why airports are being planned across the country.

Modern technologies are the foundation for building airport infrastructure and fueling this era of expansion. Some of the world’s best airports used innovative solutions like BIM, so it’s time for India to do the same. For those who are tasked with planning airports, a bit of explanation first.

Building Information Modelling is an advanced 3D representation of designs that combines visuals from many different angles.

By incorporating data related to time, project status, and cost in your BIM design, you have the ability to set up a work plan that involves all of the phases of a project’s planning, building, and maintenance. It’s clear this definition isn’t necessary.

There are many advantages to adopting the use of BIM in the design and development of airports. One of the most important advantages is that it creates more functional spaces, which can lead to increased revenue generating opportunities. The Airport Authority of India (AAI) has mandated BIM as the design platform for all its new projects for these reasons.

An airport is an area with many different aspects that need to be constructed. Civil, mechanical and electrical, landscaping and interior work all need to be done. Areas like the runway, control tower, and terminal must all be taken care of.Design is an important aspect of any product because it needs to be as utilitarian as it is aesthetically pleasing. That’s why BIM is so comprehensive in scope and works so elegantly.

A BIM(Building information modeling) integrated approach will help you understand the workflows, create a timeline with minimal errors, and take full advantage of an effective workflow. And I say this based on our previous experience with BIM models for the Mumbai International Airport.

The Airport Authority of India takes proactive measures to improve the passenger experience and places a strong emphasis on customer satisfaction.

1. The use of BIM will help a project’s collaboration efforts across the board. This includes design, creation, construction, operations and even maintenance. By using BIM, the team will have more access to the data model. Everyone on the project can leverage that data no matter where they are. Makes it possible for team members to see each other’s work and communicate with one another in real-time. With BIM, designers can better visualize the design of the airport for all those involved in the planning and construction. This should allow projects to be delivered on time, so everyone is ready for upcoming tasks.

2. Airports take a lot of money to build. It takes a massive amount of materials and resources to start construction. And, marketers waste a lot of it. A problem that many businesses face is over Other common problems include under provisioning for key materials, which leads to having to order those materials in smaller quantities. Clearly, precise estimation of the materials you need can save you a lot of money in the long term. BIM will make it easier to estimate and plan for the materials and resources needed for any project.

3. BIM will make it easier for teams to work together. One area that could benefit is plumbing since electrical and plumbing are often located in close proximity to each other. Perhaps you’ve experienced this frustration? With BIM, we can make sure there are fewer clashes and reduce time spent on reworking projects or fixing errors. With this approach, a business should see cost consistency, better plan execution and design optimization. In addition to being able to collaborate in design, early planning and construction, you’ll get your operations done on schedule. When developing new sites, BIM can bring the pieces together. With thousand of people working on your site, communication is key. This system will make it easy for everyone to preview the plans, see what they need to provide feedback on, and review the safety elements. It will also ensure that you don’t submit payment until a project is completed. This helps save time and money.

4. If you’re in charge of caring for a building, BIM is a must. It can help define maintenance plans and schedules in order to make maintenance more proactive. The system was designed to handle all aspects of airport operations, from departure security and baggage handling to arrival processing and passenger waiting. The comprehensive design ensures that the system can be sustained indefinitely without breaking down due to a lack of resources. This is critical when considering the sheer number of aspects involved in even the smallest airport. Building sustainability into the design process ensures that with properly insulation, the airport will not only be more environmentally friendly, but also more energy efficient. Building Information Management, when done from the beginning, will simplify construction of existing structures by making them more fluid. By utilizing BIM, you will be able to find better efficiencies in your plan and construction process. It will save you money, and it could even have a positive impact on the environment. The power of BIMcan be seen in how the nation’s air terminals were built, which will set new benchmarks for future projects.

The Airport Authority of India proactive strategies aid in the smooth and long-term operation of India’s airports, ensure a positive passenger experience, and encourage the expansion of the aviation sector.

While the Airport Authority of India may use BIM or technologies related to BIM in its infrastructure management and construction projects, it is important to remember that BIM is a construction industry methodology and technology, not an organization or authority.
