QUT Verified Signature Samia Mazhar 04 September 2015 Acknowledgements I want to extend my gratitude to all the amazing people that I interacted with throughout this long and intense adventure of my degree, both in the project and outside it. First of all, I am deeply grateful to broad range of the remarkable business representatives who participated in this study, from: the airports, Air New Zealand, ISS, Tolls Dnata, Menzies, Australian Customs and DAFF Biosecurity. In particular, my sincerest thanks to Dennis Krause (Brisbane Airport), David Blackwell (Rockhampton Airport), Robbie Maxwell (Perth Airport), Maurice Geary (Gold Coast Airport), Anna Gikovski (Melbourne Airport), and also Arundhati Gupta and Paul Behan from IATA - you all made this possible. It takes a village to raise a child and I want to thank my scholarly village composed of friends and colleagues from across the globe. The entire Airports of the Future team, especially Vikas, Tristan, Vesna, Ben, Lissy, Prasad and Ruth - thank you for your timely advice. The entire BPM research group especially Ayon, Guy, Axel, and Erwin - thank you for so much your encouragement. Thanks to so many wonderful colleagues, the balcony from level 5 at 126 Margaret remains a wonderful memory: Ayed, Stefan, Thomas, Alfredo, Niz, Karen, Tonia, Jessica, Ross, Greg, Marcello, Jan, Wasana and all the permanent and and visiting academics from our time in that building - you made it fun! Thank you also to the marvellous Masters students I supervised for your valued contributions. A special mention of two people who were Godsends - Kerrie Mengersen and Michael Leyer - you reached out to help at exactly the right time and made me feel that someone up there was still watching over me. To all my dearest friends outside of the scholarly context - you kept me going. Thank you also to my trainers and instructors - you kept me centred and the physical discipline you helped build outside of work put me on a path to focus and greater confidence. To my supervisors Michael Rosemann and Paul Wu, your guidance has helped me on so many levels that a paragraph simply does not do it justice. Suffice it to say that without you I could not have started or finished this journey and its many iterations. Michael your clear and poignant wisdom and Paul your witty and dedicated advice remains a hard act to follow - yet I will endeavour to help others the way you helped me. Thank you both for the motivation, support and unwavering faith you put in me - the positive impact of all that you have done for me has truly influenced my life for the better. Naturally a big huge thank you goes to my family for being the most adorable and supportive and loving and accepting one in the whole wide world. Thanks to my parents I got every opportunity to grow wings, stretch them and use them to good advantage. To them and the rest of my beautiful family: you are all the ground that stands me firmly and the sky that embraces me - you have made me capable of this, all that came before, and all that will come after. Also, a special thanks to my amazing nephews for teaching me the power of persistence! Finally, Mum it is impossible to verbalise what you mean to me and what you have done for me, especially in achieving this huge milestone - I am so grateful to God for all my blessings, of which you are the most important. Everyone who encouraged me, gave feedback, and simply listened: you have been instrumental to my learning and growth - thank you from the bottom of my heart! I now take the Force with me and bravely go where I've never gone before. Samia Sept. 2015 This work is dedicated to my roots - the legacy of people that brought me here - especially my beloved grandparents Baba and Bibi You are remembered Abstract The air transport industry is a complex environment facing challenges that include catering to rising passenger numbers, while coping with a changing economic, health, security, and technological climate. Passenger facilitation at airports is a part of the socio-technical system where this challenge manifests, impacting business operations in terms of time, cost and quality. Sub-optimal visibility and collaboration across the highly interdependent stakeholder organisations in such a complex and changeful environment introduces difficulties in effective planning and design of the process and the airport infrastructure required to support it. Global organisations, as well as those local to Australia, express a need for integration, standardisation and consistency in ensuring an effective and efficient process and positive passenger experience. This study aims to assist airports in designing the passenger facilitation process by developing a cross-organisational, configurable airport process reference model. This model provides clarity and visibility by integrating the perspectives of all organisational stakeholders involved in the international departure process - namely the airport operator, the airline, Customs and the security contractor – with that of the passenger, who is the key actor in the process. The reference model uses a questionnaire to elicit the contextual needs of the airport user, and presents a relevant, specialised end-to-end subset of the extensive model based on their contextual needs, providing them ability to make informed choices and perform further focussed analysis if required. This reference model is based in deep empirical knowledge across five Australian airports (Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Gold Coast, and Rockhampton) that are used as case studies for the international departure process, and can be extended to other airports and facilitation processes, e.g. international arrivals. The research employs Design Science to design and develop an artefact applying existing scientific knowledge. This is the first reported application of configurable reference modelling to airport passenger facilitation, and is the core domain contribution of this study. Methodological contributions are proposed as space-sensitive additions to Business Process Management Notation (BPMN), derivation of contextual factors, and normative guidelines for inductively developing the configurable reference model. The artefact has undergone ex- ante evaluation based on a range of conceptual, scientific, and usefulness criteria. Outcomes contribute to both research and practice as scientifically grounded concepts of practical relevance, as is the priority of a Doctorate of Information Technology. This project has been conducted as part of the ARC Linkage project LP0990135 “Airports of the future”.

  • Submission to the Joint Standing Commission on Treaties Military
    Submission to the Joint Standing Commission on Treaties Military Training - Singapore EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Rockhampton Regional Council (RRC) welcomes the opportunity to make a submission to the Joint Standing Commission on Treaties into the ‘Agreement between the Government of Australia and the Government of the Republic of Singapore concerning Military Training and Training Area Development in Australia’ signed on 23 March 2020 (the Agreement). RRC recognises the close and comprehensive bilateral relationship with Singapore as one of Australia's closest and most comprehensive in Southeast Asia. Based on long-standing Commonwealth, defence, education, political, trade and tourism links, as well as on the two countries' similar strategic outlook, the relationship was elevated through the Joint declaration by the Prime Ministers of Australia and Singapore on a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (CSP), signed on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries. The Rockhampton Region is proud and committed to continue its integral role in the defence of the nation through the provision of goods and services in support of Australia’s defence posture and the training activities conducted at the Shoalwater Bay Training Area (SWBTA) for over 50 years. It is equally proud of its role in supporting the annual military exercises undertaken at SWBTA since 1990 by the SAF personnel which has contributed to the comprehensive and longstanding defence and security partnership between the two countries and which has been strengthened by strong patterns of joint exercises and training and close collaboration in operational environments. The unique ties and relationships that have been established between the people and business community of Rockhampton and those in Singapore have deepened over the period of this longstanding relationship, benefitting our two countries and contributing to regional economic growth.

  • Rockhampton City Council Inquiry Into Commercial Regional Aviation Services in Australia and Transport Links to Major Populated Islands ______
    SUBMISSION TO HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STANDING COMMITTEE ON TRANSPORT AND REGIONAL SERVICES INQUIRY INTO COMMERCIAL REGIONAL AVIATION SERVICES IN AUSTRALIA AND TRANSPORT LINKS TO MAJOR POPULATED ISLANDS Compiled by Rockhampton Airport 3 September 2002 Inquiry into Commercial Regional Aviation Services in Australia and Transport Links to Major Populated Islands Submitted to: House of Representatives Standing Committee on Transport and Regional Services Submitted by: Rockhampton City Council Inquiry into Commercial Regional Aviation Services in Australia and Transport Links to Major Populated Islands _____________________________________________ Introduction Rockhampton City Council, as owner operator of Rockhampton Airport and in recognising its geographic location in relation to Central Queensland, has continued in its endeavours to provide air transport facilities, which are not only compatible with user’s expectations, but also capable of encouraging greater use. Recent expansion works at Rockhampton Airport have now provided this airport with the capability of facilitating all aircraft up to and including the latest wide bodied variants. If the potential of the region is to be realised for the benefit of all, Rockhampton requires the services of a stable and growing airline industry. Increased use of Rockhampton Airport, resulting from the ability of individuals and organisations to use aircraft as a means to economically access the resources and facilities offered by Central Queensland, will make a significant and ongoing contribution to Australia and the Australian economy. As a member of the Australian Airports Association, Council has received advice recommending that airports should, when making a submission, focus on the issues and their impacts relative to the local community served by the responding airport member.

Airports are the gateway to our nation’s world-class tourism markets, essential for global business, the facilitators of emergency support, ensure the swift delivery of essential medical supplies, trade and freight. Airports assist in bushfire fighting operations, farming activities and in many rural and regional communi- ties, they are the only public transport link to larger towns and cities. CONTENTSBefore the COVID-19 pandemic, our nation’s airport sector supported more than 200,000 jobs and contributed $35 billion – around two per cent – to Australia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). During the pandemic, airports – large and small – have been good corporate citizens, staying open to help the government bring Australians home from overseas, to move freight in and out of the country and to get essential workers such as medical professionals to where they’re needed.

  • Appendix D - Regional Airport Survey
    D Appendix D - Regional Airport Survey Survey aims 1.1 As described in the submissions and evidence, many councils expressed varying degrees of difficulty in managing their airports. The committee therefore decided to conduct a survey of councils that own and operate regional airports, in order to gain an understanding of: The variation in fees charged by airports; How much it costs to operate and maintain an airport; How much income is generated from airport operations; and Which councils were struggling to operate and maintain their airports. Who was surveyed 1.2 The committee chose to survey all of the councils that had made submissions to the inquiry, and added another 30 or so councils whose passenger statistics up until 2001 appeared in Bureau of Transport and Regional Economics’ Avstats data. The number of surveys was considered representative of councils that own airports, and was also manageable given the time available. Councils surveyed included those with large populations and viable air services, through to smaller councils that have no current air services. 240 REGIONAL AVIATION AND ISLAND TRANSPORT SERVICES: MAKING ENDS MEET Survey design 1.3 A simple survey was designed and mailed to 89 councils. The survey featured 16 simple questions. A copy of the survey can be found in Appendix E. The survey was approved through the Statistical Clearing House at the Australian Bureau of Statistics. Results 1.4 The committee received 69 responses from the total of 89 surveys sent out to councils. A total of 63 surveys provided data for analysis. The committee was disappointed that 20 councils could not find the time to respond to the survey.
