Passenger and Baggage Facilities
ACS Modular delivered two bespoke VIP passenger and baggage screening facilities at Farnborough Airport, seamlessly integrating advanced Standard 3 security technology within a live operational terminal with zero disruption to passenger services.
Project Overview
Seamless Security Integration for Private Aviation
ACS Modular delivered two VIP passenger and baggage screening facilities at Farnborough Airport, integrating new screening infrastructure within the existing Fixed Base Operator (FBO) terminal.
The project enhanced security capabilities while maintaining uninterrupted operations within a high-end private aviation environment.
The Challenge
Farnborough Airport required upgraded security screening infrastructure capable of meeting modern aviation standards while operating within a live VIP terminal environment.
Key challenges included:
- Installation within an operational FBO terminal
- Integration of Standard 3 screening equipment
- Maintaining uninterrupted passenger operations
- Delivered a high-quality facility
- Aligned with the airport’s VIP standards
The ACS Solution
ACS designed and manufactured bespoke modular screening facilities engineered to seamlessly accommodate Standard 3 security screening technology alongside integrated baggage handling modules, ensuring full compliance with modern aviation security requirements.
The solution included:
- Two VIP passenger and baggage screening facilities
- Integration of Standard 3 screening equipment
- Installation of apron-based baggage handling modules
- Off-site modular manufacture and testing
Delivery
ACS adopted an off-site manufacturing approach, enabling modular screening facilities to be fully built, fitted out, and quality-checked prior to delivery.
This approach allowed:
- Reduced on-site construction in the live terminal
- Improved programme control and certainty
- Efficient installation in a constrained environment
Modules were delivered and installed in a controlled sequence, ensuring seamless integration with existing operations and minimal disruption to passengers.
Outcome
The project significantly enhanced security and operational performance at Farnborough Airport, delivering a modernised screening solution tailored to VIP passenger requirements.
Key outcomes included:
- Enhanced passenger screening capability
- Increased operational efficiency
- Installation completed within live terminal operations
- Zero disruption to passenger services
