EMEA Aviation Infrastructure Industry Overview
The Europe, Middle-East, and African aviation infrastructure market is semi-consolidated, with many local as well as international players providing various airport construction and infrastructure support services in the region. Bechtel Corporation, VINCI Airports, Skanska AB, Bouygues Construction S.A., and Eiffage SA are some of the prominent players in the market studied. Airport construction companies work closely with the airport authorities to understand the requirements and barriers faced by the airports during operation, thereby ensuring smooth workflow during construction activities.
Construction companies are rapidly adopting advanced technologies, like augmented and virtual reality (VR) and small drones, among others, that can help them reduce the time required to approve design changes and to better understand the bottlenecks in construction, which will help the growth of the players during the forecast period.
For instance, AENA Spain awarded the contract for the Son Sant Joan Airport Terminal to ACCIONA for USD 200 million. The project includes the construction of aircraft parking facilities as part of the west and east wing extensions and the renovation and expansion of a terminal building at the airport with its connection to other modules. ACCIONA has also been awarded the other contract for the construction of three new boarding bridges for USD 21 million.
