Nantes Atlantique Airport, operated by VINCI Airports, has implemented the Airport Community App (ACA), a mobile-first platform, across its entire campus workforce. Following successful deployments at fellow airports in the VINCI Airports' network including Lyon Airport, London Gatwick, and ANA (Aeroportos de Portugal), this strategic move establishes a unified digital ecosystem, enhancing collaboration and operational awareness for all airport staff.
NANTES, France, Nov. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Building on the successful adoption by core VINCI teams and proven results across the VINCI Airports network, Nantes Atlantique Airport has now expanded access to its full workforce, including partners and third-party personnel. This campus-wide deployment is a key step toward realizing the airport's vision for an advanced Airport Operations Center (APOC), ensuring all airport staff have the same level of operational awareness, collaboration capabilities, and data access that other airports operated by VINCI Airports have achieved.
A Unified Platform for a Connected Workforce
The Airport Community App is a purpose-built, cloud-based mobile platform designed to address a core challenge in aviation: fragmented communication. The app unifies workflows across all airport areas, from the airfield to the terminal, and centralizes essential functions like live operational insights, task management, real-time communication, and incident reporting. By putting these tools directly in the hands of staff, the platform helps teams act faster and work together seamlessly, coordinating their response to unexpected events from a single, intuitive interface.
Strategic Digital Foundation for APOC Implementation
The Airport Community App's deployment at Nantes Airport provides the essential technology foundation for the facility's APOC initiative. This strategic implementation, which began with operational teams before expanding campus-wide, connects staff through a unified digital platform. This approach revolutionises airport operations coordination and enhances real-time situational awareness across all functions, establishing the collaborative infrastructure necessary for advanced operational management.
The campus-wide availability enables full operational awareness and collaboration across previously isolated functional areas, unlocking the complete value proposition essential for effective APOC implementation.
A Proven Tool for a Global Network
Nantes Atlantique Airport joins a trusted global network of over 85+ international airports utilizing the Airport Community App. The platform, now in its tenth year, serves over two million unique monthly users. It has consistently demonstrated its ability to enhance crisis response and boost workforce effectiveness across diverse airport environments worldwide.
The deployment at Nantes Airport illustrates how modern aviation technology can serve as the operational backbone for an airport, transforming communication from a simple enhancement into a core component of a unified and responsive ecosystem.
