The Present
Through a sustained program of expansion, in collaboration with our corporate partners, AirRadio now has a presence at the principal UK airports, click here to see a map of our locations.
AirRadio continues to support and develop the system requirements of its 70+ current corporate customers, providing mobile voice and data communications in mission critical environments to airlines, airports and ground operation companies.
AirRadio solutions provide their clients with the capability to increase the efficiency of their day to day operations, thereby reducing costs, increasing revenues and improving utilisation. It is our policy to assess the particular requirements of each prospect and offer a tailored service in response.
Quality
The overriding objectives of AirRadio are to ensure that we deliver services and products that meet our customers' requirements and where possible, we aim to exceed our customers' expectations.
We intend to develop an environment within which each and every member of the organisation understands the part they have to play, have the skills and authority to achieve their goals, and where excellent service and products are synonymous with business success.
With this in mind, our Quality Management System is certified to ISO 9001: 2000. We have also achieved accreditation for both our Environmental (ISO 14001: 1996) and Health and Safety (OHSAS 18001: 1999) Management Systems.
Compliance
As a service provider, AirRadio takes a proactive stance regarding compliance to the regulations surrounding our own communications industry and that of our customers in the air transport industry.
All new equipment provided from our portfolio meets the RoHS Directive which covers "the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment" and came into force 1 July 2006. This Directive bans the placing on the EU market of new electrical and electronic equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardants polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE).
In addition AirRadio employs a process to meet The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive) that came into force 2 January 2007. The WEEE Directive aims to minimise the impact of electrical and electronic goods on the environment, by increasing re-use and recycling and reducing the amount of WEEE going to landfill. It seeks to achieve this by making producers responsible for financing the collection, treatment, and recovery of waste electrical equipment, and by obliging distributors to allow consumers to return their waste equipment free of charge.
After acknowledging that the world is making more use of vehicle based wireless technology for driver support, asset tracking and road transport management; the FCS published an update to the installation code of practice for wireless equipment in vehicles in May 2008. An installer bears the responsibility for ensuring that wireless equipment, irrespective of technology, is safely placed in the vehicle. AirRadio has been a member of the FCS for many years and adheres to all their codes of practice relevant to our business. Our guiding principle when undertaking installations is to ensure any equipment is located in a safe and sensible position; specifically not to breach driving regulations but more importantly to ensure it does not cause any physical harm to the driver in the event of an accident.
The Future
It is our intention to continue growing our presence at all UK Airports so that we can offer the best, managed services to our customers. As competition between airlines and their support partners grows ever more intense, the ability to communicate in the sometimes heated and pressurised atmosphere of the aircraft turnaround becomes more vital. It is the desire of AirRadio to become the first name that is thought of in these situations.
We continue to develop our product portfolio, providing not only our traditional offerings such as Trunk and Ground to Air, but also new products such as our Eclipse software, designed to assist in the control, and thus improve efficiency, of operations.
AirRadio offers a wide selection of mobile telephony services, to allow our customers to select the appropriate operational communications tools for individual users and tasks. These services compliment our operational radio and mobile data solutions enabling clients to procure the mix of communications tools required for their business from one supplier.
Our team is always ready to discuss the communication pains that you may be experiencing, as we feel we will be able to offer a managed solution. Please contact us, we can help.
