Insuring Efficiency and Security

While automated systems offer the greatest efficiency in managing baggage, airports are challenged with maintaining the program logic of control devices, especially as a result of device failure. Our change management software helps overcome these challenges by tracking changes, decreasing downtime and errors, maintaining security and increasing productivity of automated baggage handling systems.

Security issues as well as operational issues can occur when there is no record of when a program is changed, who made the change and why the program was changed. Change management of the PLC is vital for the proper maintenance of automated baggage handling systems. In providing a common central repository of all changes, AutoSave Change Management Software ensures that current copies of program logic are available for rapid disaster recovery. Baggage systems are secured by limiting access to programs and the ability to make changes to only those with proper clearance. AutoSave also enables greater efficiency of baggage handling systems by unifying automation software under one user interface providing complete control over the automation environment. Wasted time associated with multiple users making changes on laptops throughout the baggage handling areas is eliminated and the common central repository of all changes allows for analyzing historical changes to identify bottlenecks and observe trends in programming practices.

In order to maximize transport and sorting efficiency, and effective security screening, today's baggage handling systems are very complex, sophisticated systems. AutoSave change management support of these systems creates an even more robust baggage handling solution and helps conform to airports' stringent security and validation requirements.

We serve airports and suppliers of baggage handling systems through our distribution and integration network.
