Also, the contract will enable the development of detailed requirements for the systems, which are slated to be deployed in the Avinor ANS control centres.

"This initial contract is an important first stage towards nationwide deployment of our new air traffic management system by mid-2022."

Indra director general Rafael Gallego said: “iTEC is a new and very advanced air traffic control system designed to meet the Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR) requirements of the European Commission and we are very satisfied that Avinor, as member of the iTEC Alliance, had decided to use iTEC technology as the basis for its operational systems.”

Within the iTEC Alliance, Avinor will work in collaboration with NATS, both of which are part of the same ‘System Group’, which means that they will share the development costs.
