AIR TRAVEL
BY THE NUMBERS
THERE ARE OVER 13,000 AIRPORTS IN THE US
BY 2035, 7.3 BILLION PASSENGERS WILL TRAVEL BY AIR
DOMESTIC US TRAVELERS ALONE SPENT $933B ON AIR TRAVEL IN 2018
Introducing the IBM and Arrow Smart Airport Asset Management Solution
The innovative IoT solution co-created by IBM and Arrow is:
Built on IBM Watson IoT Platform and IBM Maximo Enterprise Asset Management Software, which enables smarter airports.
Based on an
Arrow-designed and
sourced set of components to collect critical operational
data in real time.
Harnessing Technology to Create a Better Future of Travel
Powered By Data
The system collects data such as temperature, vibration and motor fluid levels from sensors on motors and other moving parts in escalators, moving walkways and baggage
handling systems.
Powering More Than Travel

Rising Consumer Expectations
The modern traveler has more options than ever before – so delivering best-in-class experiences isn’t simply “nice to have”, it’s mission critical.
Data-Driven Decisions
The Internet of Things has enabled a new industrial revolution, where key business decisions are driven by real-time data. With IBM and Arrow’s asset management solutions, data is always at your fingertips – and at the core of your decision making process.
The Right Partners
IBM and Arrow have built a reputation as technology leaders. Together, you can leverage decades of experience to change the way you do business.
Resolving Operational Challenges
Potable water systems are prone to several issues, including leakage, frozen pipes, and more, all of which can lead to flight delays and costly repairs. The Airport Asset Management Solution resolves these operational challenges and more by using sensors that measure temperature, open/closed door, water flow and leakage to determine if the cabinet is functional.
This data is consolidated and analyzed on the IBM Watson IoT Platform.
IBM Maximo® portfolio creates a more efficient asset management process using the collected data to drive workflows, resource allocation, and provides analytics to assess the health of assets to guide scheduled and unscheduled maintenance.
The Smart Airport Asset Management Solution Improves:
Potable Water Delivery to Airplanes
Sensors monitor temperature, pipe flow volume, door position, and fluid leaks
Significant impact to on-time metrics and customer satisfaction
Sensors to monitor motors, actuators, and other critical components
Key performance indicator for airports
Baggage Handling System Operations
Elevators and Escalator Monitoring
Use IoT sensors to monitor critical systems such as gearboxes and motors
Systems extremely important for customer satisfaction, safety and wayfaring
