These contracts also include the provision of various equipment and spare parts for passengers’ self-service kiosk printers currently installed as a component of the shared use passenger system located throughout the airport terminal. The AUS shared use system allows airlines to use an airport-owned ticket counter, gate, or self-service kiosks to assist with passenger processing at the airport, reducing wait time at each airline ticket counter. These general self-service kiosks provide passengers with the option to self-check and print boarding passes and baggage tags from any of the kiosks, which enhance the customer service experience. The contracts will also provide for the repair and maintenance of MAP printers used by the airlines as part of the shared use passenger processing systems, to print boarding passes and baggage tags. The requested authorization amount was determined using departmental estimates based on historical spend as well as anticipation of future needs due to airport expansion. These goods are necessary to maintain operations at the airport. If the City is unable to secure a contract, the department will procure these services on an as-needed basis after the current contracts expire, which may result in higher prices and operational costs.
