Consult
Our consultation process does more than just look at ways to address your most pressing issues. We believe it’s important to challenge your view of each issue in order to provide you with the most innovative and relevant solution – which may not be the one you expect.
By using our experience and unique market position we’ll get deep under the skin of your business to understand its real needs. We’ll spend time with you to formulate a strategy that will help you become even more competitive, within the set parameters of budget, technology, legislation and human factors such as training and competence.
When you work with NATS you benefit from our unique heritage as a leading industry figure. NATS is unlike other companies. Our background as the UK’s first ATC organisation, and our genuine commercial understanding, means you can be confident that we speak from a position of experience.
Project Manage
Wherever in the world your project is, we believe it can be managed more efficiently by providing the personal touch. With that in mind we install project managers on site to ensure you receive the most professional, dedicated service, whether you are based in Luton or Japan.
Our global reach and experience in operating internationally means that our project teams can fit in seamlessly with your people. By collaborating with you in this way we can work through all the issues to the satisfaction of both sides.
Whether the project calls for managing public enquiries for new flight paths, lobbying governments, liaising with builders on new tower constructions, or any other aviation challenge, our managers have the skills and experience to deal with it.
Operate
Many of our solutions require ongoing onsite operation. In these instances we provide you with NATS staff as a normal part of the contract, in order to deliver the work for you.
- Our approach is to work in partnership with you, which can happen in one of two ways:via an ATC or engineering team permanently stationed on site
or
- using our managed solutions, which NATS can operate remotely on your behalf
Our managed solutions are particularly cost effective as you benefit from the cutting edge services you need without extra capital expenditure or the cost of training staff in new skills.
Maintain
The aviation industry never stays still. New technology and updated legislation can quickly make your existing solutions redundant. To keep pace with this we have a policy of continually developing and improving our solutions in line with the very latest legislation, efficiency and technology changes.
By working closely with you we can anticipate and act on your needs before they become an issue. This ranges from recommending refits and upgrades of equipment to minimise the need to invest in new kit, to suggesting innovative ways to enhance capacity by understanding where the bottlenecks are – both on the ground and in the air.
This consultative approach means we are always on the look out for how to improve your airport on your behalf – finding innovative ways to address your issues such as increasing efficiency, reducing costs and improving environmental performance.
