Cover Story
At the end of 2022, IATA called
on the industry to adopt the use
of enhanced GSE. The association
reasoned increased technology, like
anti-collision solutions, can improve
safety and mitigate costs associated
with ground damage.
" Transitioning to enhanced GSE
with anti-collision technology is a
no-brainer. We have proven technology
that can improve safety. And
with the cost of ground damage
growing across the industry, there
is a clear business case supporting
early adoption. The challenge now is
to put together a roadmap so that all
stakeholders are aligned on a transition
plan, " Nick Careen, IATA SVP
operations, safety and security, said
in a release that announced the association's
call for enhanced GSE.
Of those we surveyed, 30 percent
indicated they currently use GSE with
anti-collision technology.
Adoption of technology solutions
continues to grow in the industry.
However the range of technology currently
in use varies greatly based on
our survey results.
Hesitancy to adopt new technology
boils down to time and money.
" The financial piece does play a lot
into the equation because most of
the technology that's available out
there for ground handling companies
is relatively new. Because it's relatively
new, it's still more expensive
than what you have for other industries, "
Yepes says.
" In an industry that's, in general,
very labor intensive and labor
costs are very expensive, then when
you add in that other component,
it might drive you up, " he adds. " In
general, it's very good practice to
implement them. "
