The ACV-Group consists of Airport Consulting Vienna GmbH (ACV) and Airport Design Management GmbH (adm). Together, ACV and adm offer access to a unique one-stop shop with a complete range of services for airport development, transactions (privatisations), management and operation.
With tried and tested tools and methods, the ACV-Group provides comprehensive project experience for a variety of services. These range from market analysis, airline marketing and route development, strategic planning, traffic projections to capacity planning and CAPEX, master planning, technical concepts, conceptual design, OPEX and revenue estimates, as well as the optimisation of financial structures.
With a joint track record of more than 500 consulting projects and around 100 airport transactions (privatisations, PPP’s, M&As), the newly merged group is the ideal partner for airport operators and investors (e.g. funds, banks, construction companies, etc.) who are interested in selling or purchasing airport assets. The one-stop shop philosophy offers advantages to clients and key decision makers; a single point of contact for complex airport evaluations and due diligence studies not only saves costs and time but increases efficiency.
The ACV-Group is more than just a consultant. In more than 100 airport transactions we have either been an investor, a manager, an operator or know-how provider. We have thus acquired a unique business insight. Having proven our expertise hands-on and having shared risks with investors, we are also an ideal partner in airport privatizations. We make business plans work, and we know which innovative solutions will be feasible in the long run.
In transaction projects (e.g. privatisations, PPPs, sales, etc.) we split our services into pre-award and post-award. We support our clients to achieve our business plan targets.
Pre-award services include:
