From schematic concept through construction-ready documentation, we architect technology systems that work together — across terminals, concourses, and support facilities — with every interface, protocol, and integration point mapped in detail.
A single airport terminal may contain 30 or more distinct technology systems — from flight information displays and baggage handling to access control, public address, and building automation. Each system has its own data flows, power requirements, infrastructure needs, and integration dependencies. Without meticulous upfront design, these systems collide during construction — causing delays, cost overruns, and compromised functionality.
We engage as early as the 30% design development milestone, working alongside architects, engineers, and airport stakeholders to develop technology system designs that are fully coordinated with the built environment. Our design methodology covers system architecture and functional diagrams, equipment specifications and standards alignment, infrastructure requirements including pathways, power, and cooling, integration point matrices between all technology systems, construction phasing and sequencing plans, and coordination with MEP, structural, and architectural disciplines.
Our design packages include everything a contractor needs to build with confidence: system architecture and riser diagrams, equipment room layouts and rack elevation drawings, cable schedule and pathway routing plans, point-to-point wiring diagrams, integration interface control documents, bill of materials with approved substitutions, and testing and acceptance criteria. We produce designs compliant with ICAO, TSA, and local aviation authority requirements, and coordinate across Design-Build, CMAR, and traditional delivery methods.
Long-range system roadmaps aligned with airport capital improvement programs.
Functional diagrams, data flow models, and logical/physical architecture documents.
Pathway, conduit, and equipment room design coordinated with MEP trades.
Detailed interface control documents mapping every system-to-system connection.
Designs aligned to ICAO Annex standards, TSA requirements, and local building codes.
Embedded support during 30%-60%-90% design reviews to catch conflicts early.
