Validation

Supporting ATM and airport change with robust validation to reduce risk and provide evidence that planned improvements will deliver the expected benefits.

Overview

Our industry must continually evolve systems, procedures, and infrastructure to meet the changing demands of airspace and airports. These changes often require significant time, cost, and effort, while also introducing risk. Think supports ATM and airport change with robust validation, helping reduce risk and provide the evidence needed to show that planned improvements will deliver the expected benefits.

What is validation?

Essentially, validation answers the following question:

In order to answer this question, a validation process is built, often in parallel to concept development or implementation

How We Can Help

Validation covers many disciplines. Depending on your need, we can offer help in a variety of forms:

Validation Expertise

  • If you have a validation question we can help. We have supported every stage of the validation process from early maturity R&D projects to large scale implementation systems projected for 2035 and beyond.
  • We have the experience to scope validation strategies within your project or programme constraints, while still generating the evidence required by your stakeholders to establish fitness-for-purpose.
  • We can lead validation activities across the entire project, planning, conducting, analysing and reporting on your validation activity.
  • We are experienced in the full range of validation techniques from low cost, low fidelity modelling, to large scale network wide trials.

Validation Training

  • We have specialised in validation since our foundation and are recognised experts in the field.
  • Having co-written the E-OCVM across several versions, we have also given training courses to hundreds of ATM staff for different levels of expertise. This ranges from short one day courses in understanding validation, to applying specialised skills in project specific processes.
  • We can empower your organisation to perform valuable validation processes, broadening capabilities and reducing development/implementation costs

SESAR Validation

  • We understand SESAR and we understand Validation. We have supported several member organisations across Europe in dozens of SESAR validation projects since the Definition Stage through SESAR 1 and into SESAR 2020.
  • We are known to provide deliverables in line with SJU expectations at a substantially lower effort and cost. This de-risks SESAR involvement and improves that chance of your concepts reaching V3 maturity and beyond.

Validation Training

  • We can help provide targeted assurance and evidence to support decision making. we manage user and stakeholder involvement and requirements and tailor information capture and reporting to key decision makers.
  • We have a range of qualified staff whose experience includes the following cases: Human Performance, Case Safety, Case Business, Case Environmental, Impact Assessment, Cost Benefit Analysis and Cyber Security Assessment

The Validation Process

  • Help derive requirements
  • Address/balance stakeholder needs
  • Ensure safety
  • Decrease risk
  • Help ensure we build the right system
  • Save money
