Our Baggage Handling Systems team played a pivotal role in the JFK Terminal 8 Expansion Program, providing Program Management Services for American Airlines.

As an integral part of the $13B capital improvement initiative at JFK International Airport, the project focused on enhancing Terminal 8 to accommodate British Airways, involving a terminal extension and a new baggage system. Terminal 8 serves as American Airlines' busiest terminal in the New York area, handling numerous long-haul and transcontinental flights.

Challenges surfaced in the coordination of activities, design collaboration, and adherence to stringent TSA and PANYNJ standards. We took the lead in project management, ensuring seamless coordination, schedule management, and progress reporting. The team actively engaged in schematic design and detailed design collaboration with partners like Siemens and Brock Solutions. This involved addressing RFIs, managing supplier submittals, and identifying/resolving clashes. Additionally, we played a crucial role in preparing submittal packages for TSA and PANYNJ, managing document control and ensuring compliance with the highest standards.

Teaming up with Siemens, Brock Solutions, and others, our expertise contributed significantly to overcoming challenges and ensuring the successful execution of the Terminal 8 project. The three-year program, a collaboration between the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, American Airlines, and British Airways, demonstrates Introba's commitment to delivering excellence in program management, contributing to the overall success of JFK's expansion.
