The purpose of this document is to present the results of initial Business Case simulations conducted with Barcelona CDM participants
EUROCONTROL Experimental Centre
This is a final report for the "Limited CDM Business Case" work conducted for Eurocontrol between November 2001 and January 2002. This document is an "dynamic" PowerPoint presentation of the data and results gathered in the Excel file OpportunityChartBCase. The Excel spreadsheet is a simulation sheet, where all data can be modified. Therefore, results shown in this presentations should not be seen as final and validated figures, but rather as a "snapshot" of one simulation established together with the participants in the course of this work - other simulations should be conducted by the stakeholders themselves to validate the results. The package (PowerPoint presentation + Excel spreadsheet) was presented in Barcelona on January 11, 2002, to each group of participants involved :
Airlines: Spanair Iberia Barcelona Airport Eduardo Goi Tower Handlers Eurohandling Newco Fuel CLH
This package, updated after the Jan 11 meetings, was left with each participant listed above, for their own use. This work involved the following Eurocontrol participants:
Werner Gttlinger Peter Eriksen Jrme Halgand Marie-Hlne Martin
and, as experts:
Jean-Pierre

The objective of the Business Case is to give CDM stakeholders a tool to evaluate gains and set an ambition
EUROCONTROL Experimental Centre
A list of all improvement opportunities identified on the basis of the CDM Barcelona experiment, at this stage of the project. A calculation methodology for each quantifiable opportunity in the Barcelona experiment. An evaluation of each quantifiable opportunity, with generally conservative estimates. An aggregation of opportunities by category of stakeholder. A reference for building a CDM Business Case at other sites, for other stakeholders.
It is not an exhaustive quantification of every improvement opportunities: some opportunities remain non-quantified either because a quantification would not make sense, or because the opportunity for Barcelona is not significant. This work is not based on real accounting figures provided by stakeholders. We filled the variables from various data gathered through top-down interviews and bottomup workshops, or in the literature. It does not include implementation costs of CDM. Not a generic Business Case directly applicable as it is to other scopes.
The methodology for building the CDM Business Case can be applied to any other group of local stakeholders. However, the list of opportunities, the hypothesis, the variables and the data used will be specific to each situation

The airport does not operate at full capacity: with CDM improvement of operations, it would be able to accommodate more rotations.
This is true for Barcelona airport For most other airports, declared capacity is below maximum capacity
The Business Case only evaluates gains deriving from CDM applications...
some of them are planned to be implemented in Barcelona others are known as not being of interest in Barcelona, but kept in the Business Case nevertheless as opening points for other areas of experimentation.
The Business Case does not include any cost of implementing CDM.

Overall CDM business case benefits over 3 years, for Barcelona stakeholders
EUROCONTROL Experimental Centre
Airlines
Total MIN : 37 M - Total MAX : 85 M
Handlers
Total MIN : 379 000 - Total MAX : 1 007 000
Airport
Total MIN : 418 000 - Total MAX : 1 435 360
Those results are yearly recurrent gains that can be obtained over a three year period.
A common hypothesis would be : 15% the first year, 60% the second year, full result achievable the third year.
It should be noted that some of those gains are more theoretical (e.g : additional rotations) while other gains are easier to reach ( e.g : reduce cost due to missed connections)

Conclusion : The Business Case process rises high interest amongst Barcelona stakeholders
EUROCONTROL Experimental Centre
It helps making decisions to implement CDM, and brings arguments to the management
Business Case brainstorming was very useful, it arises new thinking, new vision. Good to have different stakeholders in one room!
Verbatim
Business case brings a new approach to CDM. The methodology helps going ahead with CDM process improvement and not only on financial aspects.
It is still fuzzy...
We can finally see figures (even if they are not necessarily realistic yet)
This is a good approach to start improving the way our companies work
The CDM Business Case project supplies on request a tool that allows you to generate your particular potential benefits through a CDM implementation.
Just use it !
