Abstract

The chapter delves into the critical aspects of sustainable operations for airport cargo management, emphasizing the importance of environmental, social, and economic sustainability in airport practices. It examines the main pillars of sustainability and the obstacles faced by airports in achieving sustainable goals. The study focuses on key warehouse processes such as receiving, storing, picking, and shipping cargoes, and provides a detailed analysis of cargo acceptance, delivery, buildup, and breakdown processes. By measuring and analyzing these processes during peak hours, the chapter identifies key performance indicators (KPIs) and suggests improvements to enhance operational performance and standardize critical decision-making. The findings offer valuable insights into optimizing manpower, equipment usage, and process efficiency, ultimately contributing to the sustainability targets of airport warehouse management.
