Private Networks from Edge UOL Boost Airport Segment Productivity

Improved connectivity enhances operational efficiency

With the support of Edge UOL, a company in the airport sector has enhanced its operational performance and reduced costs through the adoption of a modern and increasingly utilized technological solution: the deployment of Private Networks.

The positive impact was achieved thanks to the consultative work of Edge UOL’s experts who, by placing the client at the center of activities and using creativity and extensive technical knowledge, were able to deliver an effective and secure solution.

Our challenge

The client’s main complaint was about various issues related to low productivity in the face of high operational costs. However, after carefully listening to the client’s concerns and assessing the situation, Edge UOL’s professionals identified that the major bottleneck was the lack of automation, which prevented many tasks from being executed through automated processes.

Before partnering with Edge UOL, poor connectivity meant that the collection of operational data was conducted entirely manually. Data related to aircraft maintenance, cargo transported, and passenger baggage control depended on human management, which is prone to errors. With the implementation of a private network, these processes became automated, enhancing productivity and the accuracy of operations.

Replacing manual tasks brings agility and efficiency to businesses.

How we solved it

So, how was the automation issue resolved? It was necessary to step back to understand the root of the problem. After a multidisciplinary analysis, the Edgers realized that the lack of efficient connectivity made it difficult to implement use cases related to automation and, on a broader scale, the client’s Digital Transformation.
Thus, a project to deploy Private Networks began, utilizing solutions from partners like CPQD and Nokia.

Key outcomes

Shortly after the significant improvement in connectivity provided by the 4G/5G Private Network, the client was able to automate various processes in their daily operations, such as equipment control, security and property surveillance, inventory and dispatch control, manufacturing process monitoring, and asset geolocation.

With such high-standard connectivity, it was possible to reduce costs and enhance operations.
