BIAL Partners with KPMG to Boost Airport Efficiency Using AI

20 May 2025 CW Team

Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL), the operator of Kempegowda International Airport, has entered a strategic partnership with KPMG to integrate artificial intelligence into its operations. The initiative aims to enhance efficiency and passenger experience at one of India’s busiest airports.

The collaboration will develop an AI platform customised for BIAL’s operational needs. This system will automate tasks, forecast trends, and mitigate disruptions through real-time data and predictive analytics. The project aligns with global trends in aviation where AI adoption is reshaping airport operations.

BIAL's move follows similar efforts by other Indian airports. Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport has implemented Unified Total Airside Management, while Hyderabad’s airport has introduced a digital twin platform for improved oversight.

This latest initiative builds on BIAL’s previous digital efforts, including partnerships with IBM for the “Airport in a Box” concept and with Amazon Web Services for innovation in machine learning and cloud-based passenger services.

The AI integration is also expected to support sustainability by reducing energy use and optimising resources, furthering BIAL’s goal of operating an eco-friendly, digitally advanced airport.
