Unisys to integrate technology at Kempegowda's new Terminal 2

Bengaluru–Kempegowda International Airport operator, BIAL, has selected Unisys to integrate and manage all IT and non-IT systems for Phase 1 of its new Terminal 2.

India’s third busiest airport and among the fastest growing in the world, Kempegowda handled 33.3 million passengers in FY2018/19.

BIAL’s second terminal project is designed to add capacity to efficiently process and accommodate an additional 25 million passengers per year and will be built in two phases. 

Scheduled to be operational in March 2021, Terminal 2 will enable BIAL to meet the demands of increasing passenger volumes and improve operational efficiency. 

Under the terms of the three-year contract, signed in the third quarter of 2019, Unisys will manage the implementation of more than 20 new IT systems procured by BIAL for Phase 1 of T2. 

Unisys will also undertake seamless systems integration of a complex network of IT and non-IT systems supporting the current infrastructure and the upcoming T2. 

According to Unisys, combining its programme management and systems integration services with the innovative solutions procured by BIAL, will enable BIAL to build a next-generation airport that delivers a unique and engaging passenger experience.

“T2 will infuse much-needed volume, addressing growing passenger demand," says BIAL's chief project officer, Thomas Shimmin.

"It will transform Kempegowda into a next-generation airport with the latest technology, and boost capacity to serve customers over the next few decades. 

"Unisys is well placed to support our vision by drawing on its expertise in the aviation industry, particularly in India, to manage this critical and complex end-to-end airport system integration engagement."

This contract strengthens Unisys’ relationship with BIAL, the two companies having partnered to provide business intelligence services including the development of an advanced data analytics platform and steering an analytics COE in 2018.

Rick Mayhew, vice president and general manager, Unisys Asia Pacific, enthuses: “The Indian aviation industry is dynamic, with one of the world’s fastest growth rates, and Unisys looks forward to helping one of the nation’s key international airports digitally transform and enhance its operational scale to meet customer demand now and into the future.”
