Frequentis: With the acquisition of 51% of ATRiCS Advanced Traffic Solutions GmbH in April 2020, Frequentis, an international supplier of communication and information systems for control centres, followed its growth path by further expanding into the tower automation sector. ATRiCS joined the Frequentis Group shortly after the corona pandemic had brought passenger air traffic almost to a standstill but, despite the challenges, significant successes were achieved. The departure management system was introduced at the Dutch Air Traffic Control (Luchtverkeersleiding Nederland, LVNL) to manage outbound traffic at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport more efficiently and ecologically in the future. At Dusseldorf Airport, Germany, a major upgrade of the ATRiCS Departure Manager was implemented in spite of reduced traffic numbers, proactively planning for the future on the basis of their experience. With the Middle East region being receptive for innovations, following the example of Dubai Airports another Middle East Airport has introduced the ATRiCS TowerPad. ATRiCS has also been awarded the contract for the implementation of its TowerPad® solution at Istanbul Sabiha Göcken Airport, Turkey, to contribute to a sustainable and innovative airfield lighting implementation together with the local distribution partner AKBA Technology & Defense Industry and the Dutch TKH Airport Solutions. According to Frequentis, this positive development will most likely continue in 2021, with other major airport projects on the horizon: For instance, Manchester Airport Group is going to introduce ATRiCS departure manager systems at Manchester and London Stansted airport and planning to bring the systems into operation when circumstances will allow in 2021.
