15 November 2023, Ayesa, a leading global provider of technology and engineering services, has secured a 10.8 million euro contract to design the expansion of Terminals T4 and T4S at Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport, Spain's busiest airport. The airport operator will invest around 1.7 billion euros in transforming its infrastructure into Europe's premier airport and a cutting-edge logistics hub that enhances connectivity across Latin America, domestic and European markets.
Ayesa, in a joint venture with leading Madrid-Architects Lamela Studio, has won the contract which includes responsibilities for engineering services pivotal to executing construction works. The scope provides engineering services for project execution, along with the preparation of preliminary documents and construction plans. These documents form the foundation for the bidding and tendering process as well as roadmaps for other vital areas such as retail & and commercial spaces, equipment, furniture, and aircraft parking aprons.
The contract win at Madrid-Barajas airport builds on the success of the ongoing renovation project for Terminals 1, 2, and 3, for which Ayesa is responsible and is currently at the draft stage. The investment for this second project is anticipated to reach 700 million euros.
These redevelopment projects are part of a strategy to ramp up Madrid-Barajas Airport's capacity to 80 million passengers, solidifying its role as an economic driver and a vital air passenger hub for the region. Madrid-Barajas plays a vital role in the economies of Madrid and Spain as a whole, driving the regional economy and fostering business growth and tourism. According to the Ministry of Transport, the anticipated outcome of these developments is a substantial increase in Madrid-Barajas' contribution to the Community of Madrid's GDP, projected to rise from 9.3% to 12%.
Manuel Sauca, Ayesa's Director of Airports commented, "This win represents a significant achievement for Ayesa, as the company now holds authorship and responsibility for drafting the full expansion and redevelopment project for the entire airport. "
Ayesa's appointment and responsibility across the entire Airport redevelopment will ensure a clear vision, improved efficiency, and coordination for a successful redevelopment of this vital infrastructure.
