			   Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Al Maktoum 
			  International Airport (DWC) in the United Arab Emirates are 
			  upgrading their systems with Saabs Integrated Air Traffic Control 
			  Suite which includes the Departure Manager (DMAN) solution 
			  designed to support sequencing of departing aircraft. 
			  Saabs Integrated Air Traffic Control Suite 
			  (I-ATS) is a flexible digital platform 
			  that provides tower and approach controllers with a comprehensive 
			  set of tools to safely and efficiently manage traffic flow. 
			  
			   
      		  Saab chosen to upgrade air traffic control at DXB and DWC airports in Dubai 
			   
			  
			  The contract, awarded to Saab by Dubai Aviation 
			  Engineering Projects includes approximately 95 controller working 
			  positions which will be distributed between the two airports, the 
			  Emirates Flight Training Academy and the Contingency Operations 
			  Center. 
			  All the key aspects of I-ATS have been developed 
			  in close cooperation with the end users themselves, with a primary 
			  focus placed on ease of use, improved situational awareness and 
			  reduced controller workload. This solution will support Dubai 
			  Aviation Engineering Projects in the step forward to upgrade the 
			  towers to the latest digital platforms and provide a more 
			  efficient workflow for the controllers, said Per Ahl, Head of 
			  Marketing & Sales, Air Traffic Management Tower Systems at Saab. 
			  Saab will roll out the programme in a phased 
			  approach, starting with workshops to design the control tower and 
			  the configuration of the I-ATS Human Machine Interface. 
			  The 
			  finished implementation will include a test and validation 
			  platform, as well as a contingency and an operational system for 
			  each airport. 
			  The majority of the controller working positions 
			  will be located in the DWC systems, as that airport will be 
			  roughly five times larger than DXB.
