  • Conducts weekly Capacity Coordination Committee Meetings to present traffic forecasts to departments such as Terminal Operations, Security, Commercial, Aviation Business, and AOCC.
  • Leads traffic forecasting, land-use planning, and capacity safeguarding to ensure infrastructure stays ahead of demand.
  • Maintains and updates the Airport Master Plan every five years, manages AAI NOCAS approvals, and oversees planning regulations and land requirements across departments.
  • Represents the airport in external regulatory meetings such as MoCA, AERA, BCAS, APAO, BIAPPA, etc.

2. Airside & Landside Design

Serves as the technical backbone for airside and landside development, ensuring designs adhere to global codes, best practices, and sustainability requirements. Covers civil, architectural, MEP, AGL, drainage, ICT, safety, and value engineering. Ensures governance and design validation of consultant submissions.

3. Project Coordination Group (PCG)

Coordinates stakeholder engagement to ensure projects are aligned with organizational requirements. Through the Method of Work Plan (MOWP) process, ensures all projects obtain functional clearances and comply with regulations for working within an airport environment.

Collectively, these pillars guide strategic planning, capacity enhancement, sustainable design, and seamless project delivery.

  • Define and maintain the land-use functional master plan for long-term safeguarding and optimal land utilization.
  • Strengthen short-, medium-, and long-term simulation modelling capabilities.
  • Assess impact of infrastructure, technology changes, and regulatory requirements on capacity and the master plan.
  • Engage internal and external stakeholders to ensure the master plan supports future airport growth.
  • Manage AAI NOC and BIAPPA approvals and maintain all regulatory compliance throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Project Coordination Group (PCG)

  • Strengthen PCG involvement from planning to design phases and recruit staff as needed.
  • Ensure MOWP processes are followed and all functional clearances are secured.
  • Develop dashboards to track critical issues, delays, and interdependencies within the project portfolio.
  • Integrate project briefs, timelines, and requirements to ensure alignment with strategic goals.
  • Research & Process Excellence

  • Lead research collaborations with institutions, OEMs, airlines, and industry bodies.
  • Identify and implement process improvements to support organizational excellence.
  • People Management

  • Performance Reporting
