About Drück & Pfeiffer

Since 1993, Drück & Pfeiffer GmbH has offered Airport-Manager, a business management IT system for airports and ground handling service providers. The software leverages the flight schedule as the central information source for determining resource requirements and supports tasks such as flight schedule processing, personnel shift planning, check-in planning, aircraft de-icing planning, online dispatch of handling equipment, and the management of airline contracts. A scenario generator enables the evaluation of process and airport scenarios as well as statistical comparisons of past flight schedule periods. The system is based on a client-server architecture with multi-user operation and is available as a LAN, single-server and multi-server version for remote operation. Customers include airports and handlers in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Denmark, Spain, Portugal and Russia, including Fraport AG and Salzburg Airport. The company in Hahnstätten also offers training, support and remote maintenance in German and English.
