Riyadh Airports Company (RAC) has introduced a new advanced digital platform, called OFOQ, to increase operational efficiency at King Khalid International Airport (KKIA) in Saudi Arabia.
The new platform was developed in collaboration with ADB Safegate.
OFOQ will serve as a central database and management tool for all operational information taking place at the airport. It will provide the operator with insights into all operational procedures and facilitate data-driven decision-making processes.
The platform’s Airport Resource Management System feature will help in controlling airport procedures, such as aircraft parking, opening and closing of check-in counters as well as passenger boarding gates, and the management of baggage belts and carousels.
It also includes a Flight Information Display System (FIDS) to offer accurate real-time flight-related data.
