  • Plan De Marketing
    S.N. Aeroportul Internaţional Timişoara „Traian Vuia” S.A. - - octombrie 2015 - Poza preluata de pe:http://libguides.nus.edu.sg/marketing 1 2 PREAMBUL Acest document a fost realizat ca urmare a dificultatilor economice cauzate de scaderea drastica a traficului aerian in perioada 2012-2014(**) avand ca scop adoptarea unor strategii si masuri de marketing care sa reprezinte solutii pentru redresarea traficului aerian si implicit redresarea financiara a societatii. Prezentul plan de marketing este in corelare cu Planul general de administrare asumat de catre Consiliul de administratie al societatii SN AIT TV (**) Scadere a fost generata in primul rand de declinul activitatii companiei aeriene Carpatair si intrarii ei in insolventa la inceputul anului 2014. Compania Carpatair detinea o pondere semnificativa, din totatlul pasagerilor transportati prin aeroportul din Timisoara. I. SCURTA PREZENTARE A SOCIETATII Sectorul în care activează AIT este cel al transporturilor aeriene de persoane şi mărfuri. Raportat la numarul de pasageri transportati, Aeroportul Timisoara este pe locul doi, dupa aeroportul din Cluj Napoca si Aeroporturi Bucuresti. Clienţii direcţi ai AIT se pot clasifica în următoarele categorii: operatorii aerieni care utilizează serviciile AIT pentru plecarea/sosirea/tranzitul curselor pe care acestea le operează; firmele de expediţii rapide; firme de servicii şi care au închiriat spaţii de la AIT (închiriere autoturisme, restaurante, etc.) Utilizatorii finali ai serviciilor AIT sunt persoanele fizice (pasagerii) Datorită faptului că serviciile AIT sunt foarte specifice şi puţin diversificate (servicii specifice destinate companiilor aeriene, închiriere de spaţii şi exploatarea parcărilor), vânzarea acestora se face în mod direct fără intermediari. La AIT există un potenţial de dezvoltare în 3 direcţii: - Pe termen scurt, deschiderea de noi destinatii si cresterea frecventelor de operare de catre companiile ce opereaza regulat pe AIT, fapt ce va putea duce la cresterea semnificativa a numărului de pasageri în următorii 3 ani.

  • South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group
    COUNCIL SIZE SUBMISSION South Gloucestershire South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group. February 2017 Overview of South Gloucestershire 1. South Gloucestershire is an affluent unitary authority on the North and East fringe of Bristol. South Gloucestershire Council (SGC) was formed in 1996 following the dissolution of Avon County Council and the merger of Northavon District and Kingswood Borough Councils. 2. South Gloucestershire has around 274,700 residents, 62% of which live in the immediate urban fringes of Bristol in areas including Kingswood, Filton, Staple Hill, Downend, Warmley and Bradley Stoke. 18% live in the market towns of Thornbury, Yate, and Chipping Sodbury. The remaining 20% live in rural Gloucestershire villages such as Marshfield, Pucklechurch, Hawkesbury Upton, Oldbury‐ on‐Severn, Alveston, and Charfield. 3. South Gloucestershire has lower than average unemployment (3.3% against an England average of 4.8% as of 2016), earns above average wages (average weekly full time wage of £574.20 against England average of £544.70), and has above average house prices (£235,000 against England average of £218,000)1. Deprivation 4. Despite high employment and economic outputs, there are pockets of deprivation in South Gloucestershire. Some communities suffer from low income, unemployment, social isolation, poor housing, low educational achievement, degraded environment, access to health services, or higher levels of crime than other neighbourhoods. These forms of deprivation are often linked and the relationship between them is so strong that we have identified 5 Priority Neighbourhoods which are categorised by the national Indices of Deprivation as amongst the 20% most deprived neighbourhoods in England and Wales. These are Cadbury Heath, Kingswood, Patchway, Staple Hill, and west and south Yate/Dodington.

  • Paying for the Party
    PX_PARTY_HDS:PX_PARTY_HDS 16/4/08 11:48 Page 1 Paying for the Party Myths and realities in British political finance Michael Pinto-Duschinsky edited by Roger Gough Policy Exchange is an independent think tank whose mission is to develop and promote new policy ideas which will foster a free society based on strong communities, personal freedom, limited government, national self-confidence and an enterprise culture. Registered charity no: 1096300. Policy Exchange is committed to an evidence-based approach to policy development. We work in partnership with aca- demics and other experts and commission major studies involving thorough empirical research of alternative policy out- comes. We believe that the policy experience of other countries offers important lessons for government in the UK. We also believe that government has much to learn from business and the voluntary sector.
