New billing system soon operational at HKIA

Hong Kong International Airport has signed a contract to keep up with increasing passenger and cargo traffic that is expected to almost double in 20 years.

Over 50 million passengers transited HKIA in 2010, a total that could hit close to 100 million by 2030, said the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Cargo volumes and air traffic movements are also forecast to almost double in the same period.

The Airport 20/20 solution, a product of solutions management company Gentrack, will consolidate four existing billing systems at HKIA into a single comprehensive aeronautical billing solution to manage a multitude of critical revenue streams for the airport.

The system will fully integrate with HKIA's existing Airport Operational Database and is designed to streamline the collection and processing of airport data to enable comprehensive billing activities.

Gentrack has appointed Hewlett Packard (HP) as its partner and sub-contractor to support the project at HKIA. HP has an extensive history with HKIA having delivered IT systems to the airport since its establishment in 1998.
