Special thanks to my supervisor Mrs.Varvara Myloni and my co-supervisor Mr. Aristeidis Bitzenis for the guidance they provided me with, during the preparation of my dissertation.» Postgraduate Dissertation iv KonstantinosBelechris, Project Management in Airport Construction: Upgrading the infrastructure of the 14 Regional Airports in Greece Abstract Project management is one of the most highly developed area, while it attracts special interest both from the private and the public sector, as well as, from the academic community. This paper aims to present the main components that constitute the project management processes regarding the infrastructure upgrade of the 14 regional airports of Greece and analyze the available project management tools and methodologies, while assess their suitability on the examined Project. Through the careful examination of this case study and given that the total Project (Clusters A & B) is divided in two main sections, we have concluded that the most efficient project management tool for both sections (i.e. the first phase which refers to that of main renovations that need to take place between 2017 – 2021 and the second phase that refers to the maintenance and refurbishment of the airports which in turn will take place throughout the period 2017 – 2057) is a hybrid methodology, combining in parallel both waterfall and agile methods. The remaining part of the thesis consists of 5 chapters. In the first one, the subject matter of the paper is introduced. In the second chapter, a literature review of project management in airport construction is presented. More specifically, the chapter analyzes the project management methodologies (CPM, CCPM, Six Sigma, Waterfall, Agile, Hybrid, PRINCE2) and identifies the suitable ones per occasion and the criteria required. Then, the chapter examines means of funding for the utilization of public private property in Greece, as well as, legal requirements for such a project. In the third chapter, the dissertation follows the case study method and attempts to apply project management to each of the cases it researches. The data was retrieved from the Greek government at the time of writing. In the forth chapter, the Cluster A’s airports (Thessaloniki, Corfu, Chania, Zakynthos, Kefalonia, Aktion and Kavala) and the Cluster B’s airports (Rhodes, Kos, Santorini, Mykonos, Mytilene, Samos, Skiathos) are presented. Furtermore, the means of planning, implementing and reviewing the construction works along with the means of managing Postgraduate Dissertation v KonstantinosBelechris, Project Management in Airport Construction: Upgrading the infrastructure of the 14 Regional Airports in Greece people, systems and procedures are analyzed; reconding also Cluster A & B’s management structure. Concluding the dissertation, a research analysis is conducted and the relative advantages and disadvantages of both clusters, emerged from the said analysis, are presented. Moreover, the final conclusions are recorded. Keywords Project Management, Construction industry, Infrastructure, Regional Airports Postgraduate Dissertation vi KonstantinosBelechris, Project Management in Airport Construction: Upgrading the infrastructure of the 14 Regional Airports in Greece Περίληψη Η διαχείριση έργων είναι ένας από τους πιο ανεπτυγμένους τομείς, ενώ προσελκύει ιδιαίτερο ενδιαφέρον τόσο από τον ιδιωτικό όσο και από τον δημόσιο τομέα, καθώς και από την ακαδημαϊκή κοινότητα. Η παρούσα εργασία αποσκοπεί στην παρουσίαση των κύριων συνιστώσων που αποτελούν τις διαδικασίες διαχείρισης έργων σχετικά με την αναβάθμιση των υποδομών των 14 περιφερειακών αερολιμένων της Ελλάδας και την ανάλυση των διαθέσιμων εργαλείων και μεθοδολογιών διαχείρισης έργων, ενώ αξιολογεί την καταλληλότητά τους στο εξεταζόμενο Έργο. Μέσω της προσεκτικής εξέτασης αυτής της περιπτωσιολογικής μελέτης και δεδομένου ότι το συνολικό έργο (Clusters A & B) χωρίζεται σε δύο κύριες ενότητες, καταλήξαμε στο συμπέρασμα ότι το πιο αποτελεσματικό εργαλείο διαχείρισης έργου και για τις δύο ενότητες (δηλαδή την πρώτη φάση που αναφέρεται στις κύριες ανακαινίσεις που πρέπει να πραγματοποιηθούν μεταξύ 2017 - 2021 και τη δεύτερη φάση που αναφέρεται στη συντήρηση και ανακαίνιση των αεροδρομίων που με τη σειρά τους θα πραγματοποιηθούν καθ 'όλη την περίοδο 2017 - 2057) είναι μια υβριδική μεθοδολογία, που συνδυάζει παράλληλα τόσο την μέθοδο Waterfall όσο και τη μέθοδο Agile. Το υπόλοιπο μέρος της διατριβής αποτελείται από 5 κεφάλαια. Στο δεύτερο κεφάλαιο, παρουσιάζεται μια βιβλιογραφική ανασκόπηση της διαχείρισης έργων στην κατασκευή αεροδρομίου. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, το κεφάλαιο αναλύει τις μεθοδολογίες διαχείρισης έργου (CPM, CCPM, Six Sigma, Waterfall, Agile, Hybrid, PRINCE2) και προσδιορίζει τις κατάλληλες ανά περίσταση και τα απαιτούμενα κριτήρια. Στη συνέχεια, το κεφάλαιο εξετάζει τα μέσα χρηματοδότησης για τη χρήση δημόσιων / ιδιωτικών ακινήτων στην Ελλάδα, καθώς και τις νομικές απαιτήσεις για ένα τέτοιο έργο. Στο τρίτο κεφάλαιο, η διατριβή ακολουθεί τη μέθοδο περιπτωσιολογικής μελέτης και επιχειρεί να εφαρμόσει τη διαχείριση έργου σε καθεμία από τις περιπτώσεις που ερευνά. Τα δεδομένα ανακτήθηκαν από την ελληνική κυβέρνηση τη στιγμή της γραφής. Στο τέταρτο κεφάλαιο παρουσιάζονται τα αεροδρόμια του Cluster A (Θεσσαλονίκη, Κέρκυρα, Χανιά, Ζάκυνθος, Κεφαλονιά, Άκτιο και Καβάλα) και τα αεροδρόμια του Cluster B (Ρόδος, Κως, Σαντορίνη, Μύκονος, Μυτιλήνη, Σάμος και Σκιάθος). Περαιτέρω, αναλύονται τα μέσα σχεδιασμού, υλοποίησης και επισκόπησης των κατασκευαστικών Postgraduate Dissertation vii KonstantinosBelechris, Project Management in Airport Construction: Upgrading the infrastructure of the 14 Regional Airports in Greece έργων, καθώς και τα μέσα διαχείρισης ανθρώπων, συστημάτων και διαδικασιών. Επαναπροσδιορίζεται επίσης η δομή διαχείρισης των Cluster A & B. Ολοκληρώνοντας τη διατριβή, διεξάγεται μια ερευνητική ανάλυση και παρουσιάζονται τα σχετικά πλεονεκτήματα και μειονεκτήματα και των δύο Cluster από την εν λόγω ανάλυση. Επιπλέον, καταγράφονται τα τελικά συμπεράσματα.

  • 14 Greek Fraport AG Airports
    AVIATION PROJECT CASE STUDY 14 Greek Fraport AG Airports A leading player in the global airport business, more than 176 million passengers use airports where Fraport owns more than a 50% stake in. This includes 14 regional airports in Greece, from the Aktion National Airport to Zakynthos, that Fraport manages. As part of a major project to modernise these airports, Fraport asked for our help. The challenge • All 14 of the Greek airports Fraport manages had outdated lighting systems that weren’t compliant with the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) regulations. And this needed fixing – fast. • This meant new mast positions and heights for all 14 airports needed to be planned, taking into account: o OLS (Obstacle Limitation Surfaces) restrictions. o Wingtip clearance for various types of aircraft. o Keeping civil works needed for new cabling as low as possible. Find out more: midstreamlighting.com or call +44 (0) 207 584 8310 At a glance Sector: Aviation LED floodlights installed: 1,000 Customer: Fraport AG Type: Titan Series Number of airports: 14 Lux average values: 30 Lux Installation height: Variable: 12m to 40m Energy Savings: 55% on average Project date: 2018 Our solution Working with Intrakt, Fraport’s main contractor, we designed and delivered a completely new, compliant lighting system for each airport. Using our Titan 560 lighting, which was the perfect match between power and weight, meant: • Increased high colour rendering led to improved safety. • Shadow areas between planes were reduced through the new tower positioning. This guaranteed a better working environment for ground staff. • Energy use could be cut – by 55% on average.
