INTERNATIONAL. The Moodie Davitt Report and PT&M have confirmed an updated development timetable for the Trinity Intelligence Platform, the global airport commercial concessions intelligence platform first announced at The Trinity Forum in Doha earlier this year.
The revised schedule gives airports, operators, brands and service providers additional time to join the initiative as Founding Partners or Early Adopters before the co-development workshop phase begins.
The Trinity Intelligence Platform is being developed as a neutral, structured market intelligence infrastructure for airport commercial concessions. Its purpose is to provide earlier visibility on concession pipelines, operator and brand capabilities, Expressions of Interest and market appetite ahead of future tenders.
Since the Doha announcement, discussions with airports, concessionaires and brands have confirmed the relevance of the project, while also underlining the need to allow more time for detailed explanations, contractual reviews and partner onboarding.
The Moodie Davitt Report and PT&M have therefore decided to extend the Founding Partner and Early Adopter recruitment phase through the summer.
Under the revised timetable:
- Founding Partner and Early Adopter recruitment will continue until TFWA World Exhibition in Cannes;
- the first co-development workshops will begin at the end of October;
- the IT build will start after the workshop phase;
- the platform launch is currently estimated for Q1 2027.
For airports, the principle remains unchanged: they participate as Strategic Contributing Partners, with free access, full sovereignty over their data, and control over what they share, when they share it and at what level of granularity.
For operators, brands and service providers, the revised process also introduces a more flexible commercial approach. Signature of Founding Partner and Early Adopter agreements will now be decoupled from invoicing. Companies will be able to sign now, secure their status, preferential terms and participation rights in the workshops, while invoices will be issued when the workshop phase begins.
The extended timetable therefore gives companies still considering participation more time to engage with the project team and join the initiative before the first workshops.
The Moodie Davitt Report and PT&M will use FAB in Bangalore on 7 and 8 July to present the current status of the project and outline the revised timetable.
The partners noted that the revised timetable would strengthen the project by ensuring that the platform is shaped by real industry input before entering production.
Extending the Founding Partner and Early Adopter phase gives more airports, operators and brands the opportunity to contribute to the platform before the IT build begins. ✈
