DMAN improves slot adherence and reduces queuing time at departure runways. Today it is in use at a range of airports that have wanted to increase the capacity and efficiency of their departure operations. The system improves slot allocation and minimizes delays. Reducing stop & go traffic, it helps to save delays, fuels and CO2 emissions. For many, the increase in predictability has also become a vital advantage with the reduction of buffer times in flight schedules and more stability in airline network operations. DMAN regulates the outbound demand by calculating Target Start-Up Approval Times (TSAT) thus providing the most efficient fit to available runway capacity. During peak traffic times in particular, the advantages of an "intelligent" sequence versus the traditional first-come-first-served off-block procedure become obvious. The Departure Manager from ATRiCS is fully compliant with the European Community Specification for A-CDM and is currently the only one offering an operationally proven de-icing function for winter operations.
