The contract was awarded by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the Civil Aviation Department of the Bahamas (CAD).

Indra will also provide the largest airport in Bahamas with a new approach control centre that features its Garex voice communication systems along with a new training centre equipped with two simulators for traffic controllers.

These systems, which will be launched soon, are capable of covering 250nm from the airport, thereby enhancing air safety in the area.
