General Information

February 9-10 from 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM EST

 

Transitioning capital projects—especially multisystem terminal projects—from construction to operation is a complex undertaking requiring planning, coordination, collaboration, and communication.  On February 9-10, ACI-NA—in conjunction with Jacobs—is proud to offer an educational workshop free for ACI-NA members to learn how you can navigate your next transition.

Using practical lessons learned from recent airport projects, the Operational Readiness, Activation, and Transition (ORAT) Workshop will provide you with insight into how to effectively develop and implement ORAT programs at your airport. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from experts who have successfully utilized ORAT processes to bring both new and renovated airport facilities on line.

Topics in this event include:

  • ORAT Basics: What ORAT is and Why it’s Useful.
  • Building the Business Case for ORAT
  • Beyond the Basics—Critical ORAT Program Elements
  • ORAT’s Role in Operational Continuity
  • ORAT Tools
