Palm Springs and Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airports go live with GateKeeper CVMS

Apr 15, 2022 | News

MINNEAPOLIS, July 27, 2023—GateKeeper Systems Inc., a leader in commercial vehicle management, airfield inspection, and transportation network company management systems for airports, today announced the recent successful implementation of GateKeeper CVMS systems at both the Palm Springs International Airport (PSP) and the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport (BHM). GateKeeper CVMS, a ground transportation management system (GTMS), tracks ground transportation vehicles as they move throughout the airport roadways, recording their activity for data analysis and trip charging purposes, thereby allowing the ability to monetize the airport curbsides while also creating opportunities for informed decision-making regarding traffic patterns, congestion, and passenger utilization of various ground transportation modes.

Robust and modular beyond its core vehicle tracking and data administration functionality, GateKeeper CVMS at Palm Springs, which began live operation on 7/1/23, is also configured with the GateKeeper automatic dispatch module, which manages the flow of vehicles to designated passenger pickup areas, ensuring demand is quickly met, thereby reducing both passenger and driver wait times.

GateKeeper CVMS at Birmingham-Shuttlesworth, which began live operation on 7/17/23, is configured with the AdComp Financial Systems module, a real-time accounting interface which automatically deducts activity charges from commercial operator accounts, decreasing labor for the airport staff and eliminating delinquent accounts or unpaid invoices.

“The success of these projects speaks to the versatility of GateKeeper CVMS and our ability to leverage our decades of experience to help our customers tailor the systems to meet their specific needs. We are excited to see both of these projects brought to successful completion and look forward to working with the respective airport staffs for years to come,” said Brian Richardson, President of GateKeeper Systems.
