Airport Planning and Programming Services

The Vendor is required to provide airport planning and programming services for various projects, studies, and assignments.
- Airport related tasks associated with these services:
1. General aviation planning services
•    Develop targeted area plans that may be focused on airport functional areas such as cargo, general aviation, parking, maintenance, fixed base operators (FBO) etc. 
•    Prepare project cost estimates and conduct financial feasibility in concert with the airport rates and charges consultant. 
•    Conduct needs assessments, efficiency studies, near term and long-term use analysis, programming, and project definition reports and documents. 
•    Develop an appropriate project definition or advanced plan for a project. 
•    Consideration for act and act needs during the planning phases and provide exhibits, reports, and documents in support of environmental entitlement as may be necessary.
2. Airfield planning services
•    Prepare forecasts, demand and capacity analysis, airspace analysis, airport layout plan preparation, and other aviation related planning activities, in alignment and compliance with airport industry approaches and standards and regulatory requirements including federal aviation administration (FAA) regulations, policies, standards, and guidance
•    Develop and update the airport layout plan package as required for submission to the FAA. 
•    This also includes performing, preparing, collecting, and presenting the aeronautical surveys and updating the AGIS (airport geographic information system)
•    Manage and develop planning studies, create reports and exhibits involving airside facilities, airspace, and operational issues. 
•    Identify airfield needs and develop alternative layouts for aircraft parking plan for current and future fleet mix, hangars, cargo facilities, fixed base operators, and other related components. 
•    Perform airfield and airspace modeling, simulation, noise analysis, and obstruction surveys and assessments. 
•    Assist and support airport in maintaining compliance with airport certification
3. Terminal planning services
•    Identify and analyze terminal facility requirements and modifications to terminal for both domestic and international passenger operations. 
•    Perform passenger processing and flow studies.
•    Assist in terminal space planning and programming. 
•    Review airline and other tenant plans for terminal modifications and improvements. 
•    Collect data concerning terminal operations ranging from curbside utilization, circulation along terminal roadways, security checkpoint processing, and baggage handling systems. 
•    Perform simulations and activity forecasts for terminal facilities.
4. Landside planning services
•    Provide non-terminal landside planning that may include roadways, parking, rental car facilities, and ground transportation facilities. 
•    Analyze and evaluate transportation corridors and site-specific vehicular traffic situations.
•    Forecast near and long-term traffic, parking and curbside peak demand periods. 
•    Plan short-term and long-term public parking, valet, employee parking, curb front access and allocation and address potential issues and opportunities for vehicle electric charging at all locations (i.e. Fleet, passenger, staff, etc.).
5. Special services
•    Analyze air traffic procedures and conduct any specific reports and studies associated with noise issues. 
•    Develop and assess land-use plans that may include on- and off-airport property and perform site assessments. 
•    Assess and evaluate utility and infrastructure for use in future development. 
•    Review, prepare, and update development criteria and design standards and guidelines for both tenant and capital improvements to maintain consistency. 
•    Coordinate with parties responsible for market studies, lease negotiations, and utility and infrastructure assessment and planning. 
•    Prepare, publish, and maintain data dashboards on airport key performance indicators (KPIS) and operational metrics.
•    Passenger, vehicle, and aircraft simulations (including performance and operational efficiency) to validate planning parameters and project definition. 
•    Review, analyze, prepare, and update airport improvement programs to maintain financial feasibility and operational efficiency in its delivery and execution.
