Under the deal, ENAV will establish a development plan aimed at both modernising the North African country's air navigation services and enhancing its capacity to manage growing traffic volumes in Libyan airspace. ENAV will likewise provide a range of skills to LYCAA managers who have the task of guiding the decision-making processes for a transition to new operational scenarios in the context of Air Traffic Management.
Techno Sky, on the other hand, will have the strategic task of undertaking a overall survey in order to provide a clear picture of the current technological situation, so that medium term goals can be set for improving technical maintenance, logistics, plant and ground systems.
"This success, in a country that is so close and strategic, " said CEO Massimo Garbini, "demonstrates the commercial maturity achieved by ENAV, and is a further recognition of the Company’s quality on the International level. These two important contracts are all the more important in a period of severe crisis in air transport. Moreover, we are proud to represent Italian excellence in a sector involving such advanced technical skills and specialisation."
During a meeting at ENAV's headquarters in Rome, Capt. Nasereddin Shaebelain, the Director General of the LYCAA, said the contracts are part of efforts to improve communications with Europe as a whole (Italy in particular) while upgrading their aviation regulatory authority and aviation industry to international levels.
