A-CDM
Concept of operations has been implemented at OTHH, to optimize APT operations by having an efficient turnaround process, departure and arrival sequencing planning and overall improving the predictability of events.
(車輛的)終點裝卸時間/周轉時間/處理時間 可預見性
A-CDM involves the sharing of accurate and timely information between APT operator, ACFT operators, ground handlers and ATC through different supporting systems and implementing a set of operational procedures.
Target Off-Block Time (TOBT)
The time an ACFT Operator (AO) or Ground Handling Agent (GHA) or APT authority estimates that an ACFT will be ready, all doors closed, boarding bridge removed, push-back vehicle connected to the ACFT and ready to start-up/push-back immediately upon reception of approval from ATC.
Target Start-Up Approval Time (TSAT)
The time provided by ATC that an ACT can expect start-up/push-back approval, based on RWY sequencing, push-back and taxi constraints and ATFM measures - Calculated Take-Off Time (CTOT), if applicable.

3.2.2. A-CDM PRE-DEPARTURE PROCEDURES

A-CDM procedures apply to all flights departing from OTHH, except HEAD, Military, SAR, MEDEVAC, HOSP and other special flights, whereby ATC shall have full discretion in the conduct of such operations.
Flight with Head of State status 行政專機 Search and Rescue 搜索与救援
A-CDM will generate and calculate an automated system - TOBT taking into account the Estimated/Actual In-Block Time (EIBT/AIBT), minimum turnaround time and Scheduled Time of Departure (SOBT).
The ground handler (Qatar Aviation Services - QAS) will confirm the system generated TOBT at 45 minutes and later as required update the prior calculated ТОВТ. TOT can be updated to an earlier time if needed. TOBT is subsequently updated to an accuracy of +/- 5 minutes if changes are expected.
TOBT is available through:
  • A-CDM platform;
  • Turnaround coordinator;
  • Parking stands equipped with VDGS.
TSAT information is available through:
  • A-CDM platform at 30 minutes before TOBT;
  • Turnaround coordinator;
  • Parking stands equipped with VDGS shall display TSAT.
Note: Flight deck crew shall not contact ATC for start-up request earlier than TSAT -2 minutes.

3.2.3. A-CDM START-UP PROCEDURES

ATC/En-route Clearance request:
ATC will communicate TSAT to flight deck crew (if available) but only via voice, DCL cannot provide TSAT.
Flight deck crew shall ensure ACFT is ready to push-back at TOBT.
Start-up and push-back clearance:
The flight deck crew must have a valid ATC en-route clearance.
3.2.3.1. TSAT
At TSAT +/- 2 minutes:
Flight deck crew to call the appropriate ATC frequency, allocated during en-route clearance, to request start and push-back or start and taxi.
Flight deck crew shall continue monitoring the ATC frequency.
ATC will advise ATC-related changes to TSAT via frequency (if required).
ACFT are supposed to push-back at TSAT +/- 2 minutes.
At TSAT +/- 5 minutes:
If the push-back cannot be executed by TSAT +/- 5 minutes due to any reason (and the crew requested and received start-up clearance from ATC within the TSAT +/- 2 minutes window), it is the flight deck crew's responsibility to advise the ground handler and its airline representatives to update TOBT accordingly for a new TSAT.
The flight deck crew may be required to coordinate with ATC for new clearances (start-up approval and/or en-route clearance if required) based on the new TSAT.
Note: Flight deck crew shall not contact ATC or report ready for start-up request prior TSAT. Unless start-up on parking stand is required, ref 3.2.3.2.
3.2.3.2. START-UP PROCEDURE ON PARKING STAND
If an ACFT requires to start engine/s while on parking stand (i.e due APU INOP), flight deck crew shall request engine start on stand at a time that ensures TSAT is met (i.e TSAT -5 minutes.)
Push-back request (after engine start on stand) shall be made at TSAT +/- 2minutes.
