Organisational Analysis On AOT
By
Aviation industry has been cutting edge of human innovation for hundreds of years
its facilitate social, economic, scientific, and cultural exchanges throughout the world. In
order to make aircraft take off and landed it need runways in which in the past, large area of
any plain field can be used as the runway. But as time passed by the industry growing further,
the aircraft can transport many people at once. The airport has been created, which is the
space on land or above the water that serve as the place for the plane to takeoff and landing
and for the passenger to get on and off the aircraft. Over 800 million passenger and 10
million aircraft passing through the airport each year. It synchronise the world transportation
and commerce. Its impact are far reaching even beyond the aviation industry. The multibillion
dollar transportation infrastructure facilitate the globalisation to bring the big wide world to
Airport has the ability to expand business activity in their area and promote future
the continuous growth of the country. The adequate airport capacity are required to cover the
higher demand of air transport. There will be the significant increase of air traffic in
Southeast Asia due to the economics growth in the region from the collaboration of ASEAN
member in establishing ASEAN economic community and the emergence of China and India.
These phenomenon will attract traveler and investor from around the world to the region.
Majority of the visitors using air travel since it is convenient, fast and accessible. In addition
to the shorten of traveling time comparing to other mode of transportation, the bursting of
low-cost airline also help enable people to travel more frequently. Not only airport become
the imperative gateway to support the growth of the region but also it become fundamental

infrastructure to enhance the capabilities of the country to compete in the global stage. These
are the reason why we are interesting to do this paper relevance to the aviation industry since
its bring the world to the age of globalisation, imperative to business sector, directly affect
the growth of the country and also the Thai government plan, the 20 years strategic plans in
which aims to enhance the capabilities to compete in global stage, develop the business and
service sector, invest in the infrastructure and connect the world to Thailand. The biggest
organisation that provide the airport operation service in Thailand is the Airport of Thailand.
Limited (AOT), were created by the transformation from Airports Authority of Thailand
(AAT) as the result of corporatization on 30 September 2002. AOT main business consists of
Managing, Operating and developing airports in Thailand. The main sources of income of
AOT coming from 2 ways which are aeronautical revenues and non-aeronautical revenues.
Aeronautical revenues are the income generating from the aviation-related business such as
landing and parking charges, aircraft service charges and passengers service charges, the fees
that airlines have to pay to the airport and the facilitates such as contact gate and aerobridges.
In 2016 it is 60% of the income of AOT. Another 40% came from non-aeronautical revenues
which include office and state property rents, services revenues and concession revenues
which come from airport store, fuel services, catering, car rental services, restaurant, parking,
advertisement, the currency exchange services. Moreover, there are companies outside the
organization supporting the operation of AOT such as Thai Airways International and
Worldwide Flight Services Bangkok Air Ground Handling Company which provide ground
services.
!2
There are 6 airports under the responsibility of AOT which includes Suvarnabhumi
Airport (BKK), Don Mueang International Airport (DMK), Phuket International Airport
(HKT), Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX), Hat Yai International Airport (HDY) and
Mae Fah LuangChiang Rai International Airport (CEI) all of these are providing the service
for both domestic and international flight. Suvarnabhumi Airport is operated as the national
airport which has the capacity to service up to 45 million passengers and 3 tons of cargo each
year also support 76 flight per hour. In 2016 of all the passengers using AOTs airport,
Suvarnabhumi Airport has 46% of all the passengers which increase 11% from 2015.The
airport facilitates 111 airlines in which 8 of them are only for cargo. In 2016 the quantity of
international air travel has increased as the result of the stable political situation in the
country while the passenger in domestic flight has shifted their behavior to use a low-cost
carrier at Don Mueang International Airport. Even so, Suvarnabhumi still has increased the
number of passenger and flight also the number of cargo especially domestic cargo in which
increased 13% from 2015. Don Mueang International Airport services 20 airlines, 14 of them
are a low-cost carrier. The low-cost carrier has grown incredibly fast both in the number of
flights, routes, and passengers. The price competition between the airlines to attract customer
are harsh as the result the number of air traffic is high. Its increased 12% and the cargo
quantity increased 60% from 2015. AOT consists of 4 regional airports which include Phuket
International Airport service 50 airlines the number of flight has increased 15% both carrier
flight and charter flight. Both the number of passenger and cargo has increased up to 17%
and 12% respectively. Chiang Mai International Airport services 23 airlines even though the
number of international cargo has dropped but the number of passenger travel through the
airport has increased 14%. Hat Yai International Airport service only 7 airlines, it is the
!3
smallest airport in AOT responsibility. And Mae Fah LuangChiang Rai International Airport
services 8 airlines.
The table below is the comparison between the number of flight, passenger and
cargo of AOTs 6 airport of 2015 and 2016 which can be seen that the number are higher in
every airport imply that there are more demand of airport service.
AOT currently have 6,044 staff. Last year AOT have 172.2 Billion Baht as an asset.
The profit has increased every year from 12.2 million baht in 2014 to 18.7 Million Baht in
2015 and 19.6 million baht in 2016. From 2015-2016 AOT has grow 4.3%.

Target and Strategies of AOT
AOT mission: Operate and support airport business including providing the airport related
AOT has three objectives which are Service area, financial area and the standard area
under the scope of AOT Strategy house to support AOT operation to conduct the business
sustainably which support 7 strategies includes Airport strategic positioning, Airport service
to development and compete on the global stage, therefore AOT has to set the direction of
their operation to facilitate business sector effectively. To make AOTs airports develop
according to the plan, AOT have analyzed the basic information of each airport location to
pinpoint the advantage and opportunities including study user profiles of the customer in each
airport including sex, age, income, life pattern and trends to construct the strategy in each
airport along with the roadmap of competency development to compete in the major area.
The information of user profiles, location, business, and technology are used to shape airport
master plan and respond to the need of passengers and carrier. Suvarnabhumi airport will be
used as international gateway since it is the door to Thailand and Southeast Asia and its
!5
located in the middle of the country, the airport will service the passenger with the smile and
the warmth of Thai culture. Don Muang will be the fast and hassle-free airport. It will be the
centre of low-cost carrier in the region. The objective will be to facilitate and support the air
travel in Thailand to be easy, convenient and fast. For a regional airport, Phuket International
Airport will be the door to Andaman, Chiang Mai International Airport will be the door to
Lanna culture, Hat Yai International Airport will be the gateway to the Southernmost
Satun, and Pattani. The airport will be Muslim friendly providing Halal food since 70% of
Southern Thai are Muslim. For Mae Fah LuangChiang Rai International Airport it will be
the regional centre for aviation business support the fast growth of Mekong region and south
of China.
Aviation industry grow continuously every year. AOT emphasis the enhancement of
the capacities to service the flight, passenger and cargo. There are 3 level of infrastructure
improvement includes, firstly the capacity management utilize the every available space to
have the highest best use, reduce the congestion in rush hours. Secondly, airport expansion,
expand the airport by build more runways, terminal and airside to reduce the congestion and
to support the busier air traffic status in the future. And lastly establish the airport master
plan, to lay down policy and set the duration of each project in both short-term and long term
project.

Strategy 3: Aeronautical Business
The core business of AOT concerning the main mission of AOT which is Operate
and support airport business. AOT aims to develop the capacity of passenger flow, improve
transit and transfer process, safety & security check, fast and convenient ground handling
service to the airline and lastly space utilization. Moreover AOT want to develop the air
travel market in both domestic and international level which cover the transportation of
passenger and cargo by increase the frequency of flight and number of airline that will use the
AOTs 6 airport. The operation will be conducted along with the customer relation
The pattern of airport business in the present day apart from managing the airport in
the aeronautical field which is the main operation, AOT has emphasized the non-aeronautical
field as well. AOT aims to respond to the different needs and expectation of the customer
both passenger and airline. Non-aeronautical field has high productivity in terms of
generating income, 40% of AOT's income has been generated from this area. Along with
airport strategic positioning and user profiles, non-aeronautical business seeks to respond the
diverse needs of the customer in each airport. The data have been gathered in AOT so that
AOT can make the plan to expand the airport commercially. Ground service handling is
matters as much as air services. The convenience must be provided to the customer.
!7
Strategy 5: Intelligent Services
The communication technologies and innovation are needed for airport operation. The
total experience of the customer depends on the services the airport provides to them. In order
to create superior services experience the services have to cover every dimension both
aeronautical and non-aeronautical. AOT develop the technologies that are friendly to use and
accessible to every airport, moreover, the lifestyle of the customer are being studied so that
AOT can respond to every group of user. The organization culture is also being embedded to
Thailand has a geopolitical advantage above the other country in the region. The
location of Thailand is situated in the middle of South East Asia which is easy to access and
connect to another part of Asia such as China, India and another country in Southeast Asia.
AOT aims to be the centre of air travel in the region and in the world that can support any
kind of travel whether business or travel. AOT wants to be transit and transfer hub, logistic
centre and MRO hub (Maintenance Repair and Overhaul hub) and the hub for aviation human
resource development.

Politics
Even though government have strategic plan to support the role of AOT in becoming
the hub connecting the world and Thailand, but there are political tension occurred several
times and the most obvious consequence is the closure of Suvarnabhumi Airport and Don
Mueang Airport in 2008 which affected the decreasing number of customers during the
political unrest. It has been estimated that around 402 flight affected from the closure and
more than 53 million baht loss per day. These chart below are the statistic that show the
number of passengers and flight that have been significant decrease during the political
tension in 2008.

Economics
With the economic growth in the region attracting customers like tourist and investor
from around the world. Especially the tourist which are more preferable class based on
money they spend in airport that more than business travel. As the graph show the Chinese,

Social
With more intense competition between airlines in a term of affordability, the social
trend of people using airlines has changed significantly for a decade as can be seen from the
increasing number of low-cost airlines. AOT, therefore, has to convince these airlines to use
one of AOTs airports with can facilitate them most e.g. Don Mueang Airport can handle and
specialise airport usage for those air careers. Moreover, many social activities and events also
have effect to how people decide to travel for instance currently many famous football teams
from europe are hold a lot of matches in many big cities in China and it was expected that

many people will go to watch the match. Such an event will inevitably affect the number of

Due to the advance of technology air control become manageable in which make
AOT capable to support more flight to land and the ticket reservation become much easier.
People who want to travel no longer have to go through travel agencies anymore, they could
purchase tickets and book the hotel or hostel by themselves. Application and website like
Traveloka, booking.com and Airbnb come to play major role or even grab or uber which all
of these have effect on the number of passenger that will come to use AOT airport.
Additionally, AOT has other cooperation with other important companies in accompanying
aeronautical business, notably Aeronautical Radio of Thailand Ltd. which has the latest
Environment
Natural disaster like flooding is sometime unavoidable. The 2011 flooding shut down
Don Muang Airport, caused two airlines which based there to stop their operation until the

in which it affects enormously. However, only a few like flooding will have effect to the
Airport since geographic location of Thailand are in favor that it will not face huge storm or
earthquake which will prevent the landing and departure of the planes and sometime do

Legal
Ministry of Finance holds 70% of AOTs shares implying government hold final
decisions toward all AOTs activities. Moreover, the concerning of airport management
regarding to several laws hinder its airport development. For example, law on design and
announcement the highest voice should not exceed 115 decibel and average voice per day
should not exceed 70 decibel, Moreover, the 17th environment committee also adjudicate the
noise at 10 decibel, or else by the authority from public health act and National
Environmental Quality Promotion and Preservation Act 1992 there will be considered as
criminal act and will be charge or imprison. There are a case that environment group sue
AOT for noise pollution but the court dismissed the case cause the noise didnt exceed 10
decibel.

International
It cant be denied that international situation also have effects on the operation of
AOT and also its costumer. International epidemic and terrorism are among them that have
most obvious effect. International epidemic like Zika virus makes people less likely to travel

THEORY OF 7S
Structure
committees and the President (as the Board is the one who appoint them). The President
controls several hierarchical offices (as indicated in light blue colour) in which each of them
has several departments. Some committees have a relationship i.e. informal communication
with other departments inside their offices; that means one departments can be overviewed by
both the offices and committees. Additionally, the President is also in charge three main
airports and other Regional Airports in which each of them has separated departments. By
and large, there are too many key actors in the structure which are responsible in the
structure, and thus it makes the structure within AOT complicated i.e. the structure is not flat
at all.
Strategy
AOT have main strategy call Sustainable growth which these emphasis on 3 area;
Service area, financial area and the standard area. The Sustainable growth could be
practically to assign each airport with their geographic location such as international gateway
for Suvarnabhumi airport, Gateway to Lanna Heritage for Chiang Mai airport and Gateway to
Southern-most Thailand for Hat Yai airport. Second, Airport Service Capacity, which are to
develop capacity management, airport expansion and to create Airport Master plan, must
consider capacity for airside like runway, taxiway, passenger terminal and cargo terminal.
Thus, maintenance the infrastructure to be able to use to their max capacity. Third ,

process, safety & security process and ground service handling for airline by concerning
space utilisation, convenience and speedy along with customer relation management to keep
old customers and find the new customers. Forth, Non-Aeronautical by using user profiles
matching with airport strategic positioning to devise a plan specifically for each airports and
by doing that it can improve the efficiency and services that will respond to the customer
need. Fifth, intelligent service is to develop system and facility to be easier to use or so call
user friendly. Sixth, Regional hub is AOT aiming to be regional and then world hub on
logistic and maintenance Repair and overhaul including becoming centre for develop aviation
area and also the aeronautical business to other countries such as airport management and
duty free shop by improve internal regulation in order to compete with international.
System
There are three main systems used in AOT: Management Information System (MIS),
System Application Programme (SAP), and Airport Operations Database (AOBD). MIS is
used at main headquarter and regional airports for operational and financial management, for
airport operation, and for a collection of flight information. SAP is used for human resource.
AOBD is used for flight information management. Additionally, all of these systems are
combined with the latest technology in which AOT seeks to use to improve the efficiency of
airport management, and also the capacity for each employee, either from AOT or outsourced
companies.

AOTs Vision Dilemma
After reviewing AOT vision AOT Operates the worlds smartest Airports we found
that out of their strategy house which includes Airport strategic positioning, Airport service
Hub and Business development. There are only one strategy (Intelligence service) that are
related to Smart airport. The rest of the strategies is to enhance to capabilities of the airport
environment the location of the airport, the existing customer which is linking the airport to
many region, the economic growth in the region and their planned strategy which has the
regional hub as the strategy in strategic house. we found that the destination that they are
going is to be the regional hub of Southeast Asia. Their strategy is not correlated with the
vision AOT Operates the worlds smartest Airports but it do correspond with the Thai
could be translated directly as AOT Operates the worlds class airport. So we presumed
that when they planned their strategy they looking at the Thai version vision not the english
one which is to be smartest airport. But their on-going strategy was covering many area in
order to make Thailand connect to the world according to Thailand 20 years strategic plan.
Even though they did not correspond to their English version of vision, at least they
correspond to national strategy and their Thai version strategy. We presumed that the reason
why they translated the vision from Thai to English so differently is because they want to
archive both, to be world-class airport and also the smart airport. So we decided to change the
vision from AOT Operates the worlds smartest Airports to AOT Operates the world-class
smart airport"
!23
World-class airport is measured differently by the passengers and the airlines.
Passengers want the best performance of airport facilities, services, and retails. At the same
time, there must be a research or survey regarding what passengers or customers need inside
the airport in order to improve their satisfaction. In the other hand, airlines seek for airports
that have good characteristics i.e. airlines have certain criteria to choose the airports which,
for examples, have high number of connecting airlines, offer high quality of marketing that
make both airports and airlines infamous, and can provide special areas for airlines for
specific usages like lounges etc. By and large, by being a world-class airport, it should see
itself to be more customer-focussed, spend more time getting to know an airlines and their
passengers. Thus, everyone, both airlines and passengers, or other people, can easily access
the airport.
The definition of Smart Airport is the concept that centre around passenger services
by regarding the safety and security element by using technology. The main point are the
ground handling services, information point and internal communication using technology.
AOT has the platform of mobile application which gives the passenger the real-time
departure and arrival flight also provide the airport information. The goal of the smart airport
is to make systems and process digitally aware, interconnected, and simple to access by
In order to make AOT operate the world class smart airport operators we have done

We found out that the way to be World class airport is to be customer-centric which in
this globalisation, the technology plays important role. Smart airport has the concept of
using technology as the instrument to satisfy customer and they have the same principle
with world class airport which is customer centric. Which means that in the age of

starts from small smart object that customer can bring with them for example smartphone
and wearables items like smartwatch. The smart airport will make the system and process
aware digitally.
Passenger doesnt have to be in the airport to get the information about the flight and
the airport but they can be anywhere and check them on their phone. Smart mobile app
is the key to all system in smart airport. Luckily AOT have the AOT Application
available to download online both Android and iOS device. The application can check
the departure and arrival flight and provide you the airport information. To enhance the

the notification on their phone will alert them. Payment in the airport could be done
through the app. The buying patterns will be influencing through the social network and
