BCS gains US accreditation for innovative technology

High profile US aviation consultancy, BNP Associates, has named New Zealand’s BCS Group an approved supplier of high tech baggage handling
system controls to airports around the world.

The accreditation validates BCS’ continued growth into international markets, recently supplying its complete suite of controls products into Honolulu Airport, Melbourne and Gold Coast airports in Australia, as well as over 20 airports worldwide.

BCS CEO Patrick Teo said the company has been providing baggage handling system (BHS) controls for the past 18 years, but with an increased emphasis on R&D, and world-first innovations, BCS is experiencing unprecedented growth.

BCS specialises in development, design, manufacture and installation of state of the art baggage handling systems including world leading controls to streamline baggage handling and improve efficiencies at airports.  The company also applies its technology in freight logistics.

BNP has endorsed BCS as an approved supplier of BCS’s own “Airflow” High Level Controls, BCS’s own Low Level Controls and also BCS’s
revolutionary 3D user interface system (MDS) -“Sym3”.

The extensive evaluation process included an engineering review of the product data, a product evaluation site visit at BCS facility in Auckland, and an evaluation site visit to Melbourne Airport operating with BCS High and Low level controls.

“This is a significant milestone for our business” said Brad Jackson, General Manager of BCS International. “This accreditation provides BCS
with a controls brand that will help us to expand into emerging international markets as well as uphold BCS in existing regions where we have been active for many years."

“Our suite of controls products and services complements our
mechanical equipment and demonstrates we are a true global BHS turnkey supplier
and integrator”.
