Russian Aviaton » Friday February 20, 2026 16:45 MSK

A new Apron Operations Control Center has opened at Pulkovo Airport.

What's the gist:

The center is based on Pulkovo's own digital platform, which integrates Russian IT developments (including elements of the RMS program).

How does this work:

●       Sensors on the platform continuously transmit data to the center

●       Dispatchers see all processes occurring with aircraft and 27 ground services

●       Monitoring compliance with regulations and time standards

Pavel Kushnirenko, Chief Operating Officer:

"For a single plane to depart on time, 27 services must perform their operations according to regulations. The new platform makes it possible to monitor compliance with these processes . "

What the new center offers:

●       Single control center for all apron resources

●       Real-time process control

●       Synchronization with airlines

●       Quick response to emergency situations

The ultimate goal:

To increase the speed of interaction between all services and take service to a new level for passengers and airlines
