Capgemini Super Techies Show Season 3- Heathrow Airport Challenge

The Facts

Heathrow is UK and Europe’s busiest international airport

72.3m passengers in 2013

82 airlines flying to more than 180 destinations worldwide

Sustains 76,600 jobs directly and 116,000 in the immediate area

Restricted to 480,000 aircraft movements per year, with its two runways operating at over 98% capacity



Background on Challenge – Security Compliance

Liquid and sharp-object restrictions in hand luggage since 2006

Passengers’ hand luggage is searched in security, and non-compliant, restricted items are removed and disposed



The Problem

Up to 10% of the searched bags contain restricted items, which is a major cause of frustration for passengers, and lengthens security queues

Compliance rates are lower for non-English speakers and infrequent fliers



The Challenge Statement

Suggest a solution that uses SMAC technologies to positively change human behaviour ahead of passenger security search



The Challenge Statement - Details

A reduction in security compliance failures benefits passengers, who could enjoy shorter queue times and less frustration, while allowing Heathrow to redeploy resources more effectively

Influencing non-English speaking travellers and infrequent fliers could make a larger impact



Important Points to Remember

Heathrow is regulated in the UK by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA)

There is a regulatory requirement that 5% of all hand luggage is checked, i.e. zero compliance failures is not the challenge target

The passenger throughput profile varies through the day, i.e. peaks in the early morning and late afternoon/evening times. Therefore, security resources are not evenly spread

This means that to meet the 5% regulation, additional hand luggage searches could take place during quieter periods to avoid longer queues
