COLLABORATIVE DECISION MAKING
Collaborative Decision Making (CDM) is an
approach for making better decisions that:
•
•
•
•
Brings the right people together;
Enables them to work collectively from
a common picture with better information;
In order to develop a shared
understanding and mutual commitment;
And ultimate improve both the
safety and efficiency of operations.

HOW MUCH CAN CDM SAVE?
The short answer:
•
A lot, much more than it costs
The (slightly) longer answer:
•
•
CDM is an umbrella term, and while there are standards for
parts of CDM in certain environments (like EUROCONTROL
Airport CDM), many different approaches and solutions can be
classified as CDM
As such, the savings vary depending on what is implemented
and what operational conditions are present (i.e. traffic load,
delay severity, resource availability)

CASE STUDY: NEW YORK
JFK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
Using Saab’s Aerobahn CDM Suite, the Port Authority and flight
operators at JFK are achieving significant taxi time reductions and
cost savings
Airlines at JFK are saving an average of $15.6 million per year in
fuel costs alone, combined with a reduction of 32,000 metric tons of
CO2 emissions
The airport is making better use of its resources and providing a
better experience for passengers traveling through JFK
And the FAA is provided a better sequence of aircraft in order to
optimize runway usage and throughput
* Savings were verified by an independent analysis from
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln Labs

CASE STUDY: EUROCONTROL
AIRPORT CDM COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS
In EUROCONTROL’s cost benefit analysis, they estimated their
A-CDM concept provides on average a 9 to 1 return on
investment

SAFE
Security management system for critical infrastructure protection
and emergency response
This is often an independent function from air traffic and flight
operations, but as airports are centralizing functions and
consolidating information systems, the integration of SAFE and
Aerobahn products can provide a more comprehensive picture
