Singapore Exchange Mainboard listed Stratech Systems Limited ("Stratech") and its UAE Partner, Bayanat Airports Engineering & Supplies LLC ("Bayanat Airports”) today announced that they have been awarded the Runway Debris Management System contract for Dubai International Airport in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The contract, awarded by Dubai Aviation Engineering Projects (DAEP), is for the installation of the iFerret™ intelligent Airfield/Runway Surveillance and Foreign Object & Debris (FOD) Detection System at Dubai International Airport. Developed by Stratech, the market leader in RDMS solutions, the iFerret™ system is the world’s first intelligent Vision-based FOD detection system, providing real-time, automated FOD detection, location, classification, measuring and recording approved by the US FAA (Federal Aviation Administration). Covering the runways and taxiway crossings, it will help prevent potential aircraft damage and fatalities caused by FOD, ensuring airside safety and security. iFerret™ has also been deployed at Singapore Changi, Chicago O’Hare, and Düsseldorf International Airports and recently selected by one of the world’s top Air Forces for deployment on military airfield.
"The Dubai International Airport is one of the top airport hubs handling more than 60 million passengers and aircraft movements in excess of 300,000 annually. We are confident that iFerret™ will rise to the occasion and enhance aviation safety for travellers and employees in this very busy airport,” said Stratech Executive Chairman, Dr. David K.M. Chew.
