Sofiene Abdessalem, Managing Director at TIBAH airports, said, "PMIA is one of the most important airports in Saudi Arabia, one of the two main entry points for the visitors to The Holy Ka’aba and Muslims worldwide arriving for their pilgrimage. IFS Applications will give us complete visibility in realtime to better manage and optimise the asset lifecycle through continuous operational improvements, combining work flow and maintenance functions into an integrated, automated process."
Ian Fleming, managing director, IFS Middle East, Africa and South Asia said: "By implementing IFS Applications, TIBAH Airports will gain better visibility of their operations, whilst increasing availability, productivity and profitability. TIBAH Airports will now be able to get a holistic perspective of the assets’ lifecycle, ensuring PMIA continues providing world class aviation facilities to its customers."
The project is expected to be completed by end of January 2015.
