BAGWARE® COMPUTER SOFTWARE
Designed by ALSTEF, BAGWARE® is the sort allocation computer (SAC) software that serves to sort bags, control the baggage handling system, and ensures 100% screening of checked baggage.
BAGGAGE TRACKING AND SCREENING
BAGWARE® manages the bags throughout their entire route through the system :
Takes control at the check-in counters or automatic drop-off points
Manages 100% screening of bags
Manages customs controls
Manages early bag storage
Sorts bags
Controls bags up to the final sorting points (piers, conveyors, chutes, carousels)
BAGWARE® INTERFACES WITH AIRPORT SYSTEMS
The applications are developed by ALSTEF Engineers who are part of the project from the design phase to the implementation of the system. The applications are supported by innovative systems (self-closing fibre networks, virtual concept…).
A key component of the baggage handling system, BAGWARE® interfaces with the airport’s Flight Information Management System (FIMS), Departure Control System (DCS) through the Baggage Source / Transfer Message (BSM/BTM) messages of SITA BagMessage system, and with the programmable PLCs of the conveyors, Destination Coded Vehicle (DCV) system and sorters.
BAGWARE® complies with International Air Transport Association (IATA) standards.
BAGWARE® also interfaces with control systems dedicated to baggage sorting and screening systems, with the Flight Information Display System (FIDS), and the Baggage Reconciliation System (BRS).
