Memphis International Airport

The Memphis International Airport (MEM) MUFIDS project scope of work consisted of a preliminary planning effort to identify short- and long-term goals associated with a MUFIDS, identification of all required functionalities, interfaces, integration requirements, locations for display devices, and elements to be included in the initial implementation as well as future phases of a MUFIDS deployment.  Following the planning effort, procurement documentation (construction drawings and specifications) was developed for the base implementation.  The base implementation included Flight Information Displays (FIDs), Baggage Information Displays (BIDs), Gate Information Display System (GIDS) capabilities (to be implemented in future phases), and Visual Paging to support ADA compliance.  The design included the system software and head-end equipment, display configurations and locations, and mounting requirements for the monitors for each of the various display configurations associated with the MUFIDS.  Phase 1 of the project consisted of the long-term implementation plan which included a site inventory and conceptual design of the base system.  Phase 2 consisted of the development of procurement documentation.  Phases 3 and 4 included bidding and award assistance as well as assistance during the implementation phase.
