Project Description:
The Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) Terminal Modernization Program (TMP) opened a new 811,000 square foot terminal project, to provide a new three-level facility as a replacement of the existing Terminal. The TMP project brought the new Terminal adjacent to the existing Airside Concourses and provides a complete turn-key state of the art Baggage Handling System (BHS) inbound and outbound systems within the new greenfield Terminal.
As a critical member of the Jacobs Project Management Office (PMO) team, Studdiford Technical Solutions, LLC (STS) provided BHS subject matter expertise, including design reviews (for both design and construction documentation), presenting the Airport Authority with technological advancements for incorporation into the new BHS, providing recommendations for RFI responses (including interfacing with the airport authority such that all options are considered), and representing the owner for all BHS commissioning.
STS worked diligently with several product manufacturers to present the available options with the Airport Authority regarding predictive analytics and worked alongside the Baggage Handling System Contractor (BHSC) Daifuku to ensure the expectations were met.
The scope of services included oversight of all BHS CBIS design for TSA compliance, technological recommendations, ORAT support, bid package development oversight, monitoring BHS contractor work, construction punchlist review and reconciliation verification, owner commissioning, and participation in TSA testing.
