Context

Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport is France’s second-largest regional airport, playing a strategic role in passenger and cargo traffic. With a wide variety of technical assets (from BHS systems to vertical transport and parking equipment), Lyon Aéroport sought to professionalize its asset management practices to improve performance, reduce risk, and prepare for future infrastructure needs. ADL is facing some challenges : Identify vulnerabilities across all technical assets and optimize maintenance processes and Enhance asset reliability and reduce lifecycle costs for high-impact systems.

Our solution

  1. 01 Risk mapping of all technical assets across the airport platform
  2. 02 Vulnerability and maintenance optimization studies on critical systems (BHS, escalators, parking, etc.)
  3. 03 Asset management maturity assessment and definition of an actionable improvement roadmap (ISO 55001 aligned)
  4. 04 training sessions Delivery of training sessions to operational and management teams to embed AM principles

Questions about this reference

What did Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport set out to do?

To professionalise its asset management practices in order to improve performance, reduce risk and prepare for future infrastructure needs, across a wide variety of technical assets.

Which assets were covered?

The technical assets across the airport platform, with dedicated vulnerability and maintenance optimisation studies on the critical systems — baggage handling, escalators and vertical transport, parking equipment among them.

What does risk mapping produce?

A view of where the platform is vulnerable, asset by asset, which is what allows maintenance processes to be optimised on the systems whose failure has the greatest operational impact rather than uniformly.

Was the work only technical?

No. It included an asset management maturity assessment with an improvement roadmap aligned to ISO 55001, and training sessions for operational and management teams so the principles stay in the organisation.

Why does a regional airport need this discipline?

Because as France's second-largest regional airport it carries both passenger and cargo traffic on a platform whose critical systems have little tolerance for unplanned downtime. Reliability there is an operational constraint, not an aspiration.
