introduction
The atg airports project services team design, supply, implement and maintain systems to
provide the most economically viable solution to meet your individual needs.
With a proven track record for delivering quality services, we are proud to be suppliers to
major airport operators and airport authorities throughout the world. In addition to this we
maintain the MCS at all RAF and RNAS airfields worldwide.
atg airports benefit from over 25 years of project management experience and have completed many prestigious large turnkey projects.
By working closely with our clients, we ensure the delivery of products and services that reflect their specific requirements. We take
pride in successful project delivery, our after sales and maintenance services are paramount to the success of a complete life cycle
costing. We therefore provide technical and spares backup as an integral component of our project support.

turnkey solutions
Our experience over a wide scope of services both here in the UK and overseas enables us to offer complete Turnkey Solutions for
clients who may wish to restrict the number of contracts placed.
Clients who employ atg airports as the principle contractor to proved Turnkey Solution both here in the UK and overseas do so with
the knowledge and confidence that they will be dealing with one project manager who will in turn coordinate all the specialist services
required for the smooth operation and performance of the project. This option is usually considered for large projects however, we at
atg airports after completing an internal review have discovered that this can often be a viable option for contracts with a smaller overall
value for clients who may not wish to employ dedicated project management companies.
With our extensive experience of providing skilled project management required for Turnkey projects atg airports have been extremely
successful in many overseas countries in providing the required control and coordination to enable the client to reach projected
completion and handover date.

partnering
Airfield installation projects are often a complex activity with many different organisations involved, and partnering can help effectively
manage these strategic supplier relationships. Integrated project delivery teams can be considered complex with a mixture of client
bodies, contractors, consultants and sub-contractors. This is made even more complex in the aviation sector when we consider
airports, local community and environmental issues and external funding bodies all of which have differing perspectives on the nature
of best value. Partnering is an approach which supports the inclusive management of all of these views to build a shared stakeholder
perspective by establishing an inclusive set of project objectives it means that the outcomes of a project can be better managed.
atg airports has experience of civil engineering projects from sites across the globe, many of which have been completed whilst
working in conjunction with many civil engineering contractors. atg airports strongly welcomes the opportunity to form strategic
partnerships with our clients and supply chain partners.

early contractor involvement (eci)

atg airports are fully conversant with ECI procedures currently being used by various clients
in order to deliver major airport development projects.
We welcome the opportunity to be involved in ECI whenever possible allowing atg to bring practical construction solutions, innovation
and subsequent detailed costing to the conceptual stages of the project.
The key significant advantages of utilising ECI are:

economically viable solutions

practical construction methodologies
improved project performance
improved risk management

improved construction health and safety considerations

reduced environmental impact
procurement
shorter construction periods

survey and design

A major asset to our core business is the ability to carry out a full design service in-house. Using our experienced team of AGL and
Electrical technicians, civil design resources and the latest CAD technology, detailed design information and specifications can
be produced for all types of airfield projects. These capabilities allow us to act as a stand-alone design facility or incorporate our
expertise into a full design and build contract. Specialising in airfield systems, we have a wealth of knowledge to incorporate both new
technologies and proven methods of installation into our designs.
Services include:
Conceptual design, feasibility studies and condition surveys
Outline and detailed design including 3D modelling

Design development and integration with civil construction

works

Preparation of specifications, methodologies and risk

assessments

atg airports project solutions

photometric testing
atg airports offer a photometric testing service executed to an agreed frequency programme,
which will record the status of the lighting output and provide valuable records.
Since November 1999, ICAO Annex 14 recommends the need for regular inspection of Airfield Lighting Installations at least twice a
year with a Civil Aviation Certified Device. The lighting of CAT II & III runways has to be regularly monitored as part of a preventative
maintenance program to ensure that it meets ICAO, CAP 168 and all other necessary safety standards. The equipment measures the
luminous intensity of both runways and taxiway lights and provides information relating to the maximum intensity of the main beam in
candelas, an estimate of the main intensity, as well as colour and elevation settings of the light.

With over a decade of experience in the airfield lighting industry, atg airports have developed a new generation of mobile photometry
equipment.
The atg system is based upon the sensors array that has gained total customer satisfaction on airports worldwide, controlling the
compliance status of the airfield lighting system with regards to the ICAO or FAA standards and enabling the airports to adopt the
appropriate maintenance plan.
By measuring the runway and taxiway lights at an average vehicle speed of 40Km/Hour, the real-time core software enables to acquire
data very precisely and to provide the measurement results instantly on site.
Measurement results include:
Iso-candela diagram

Light beam orientation expressed in V and H Colour of the

Average, maximum and minimum values expressed in

light beam identified on site.

candelas
The comprehensive information supplied and the ease of use of the atg photometric system has made it one of the most highly
regarded in the AGL market.
