The partnership originated from collaborative discussions aimed at enhancing communication efficiency in high-pressure ramp environments, with dBD Communications’ wireless system initially deployed to support de-icing operations.
Following the success of this initial implementation, PrimeFlight has selected dBD Communications to provide wireless solutions for its pushback, towing, and cargo handling operations.
David O’Connell, CEO of dBD Communications, stated: “Our wireless systems have established an international reputation for reliability, having been adopted at major airport hubs and tailored to support defence aviation teams. We are proud to bring this same standard of safety, dependability, and operational efficiency to PrimeFlight’s global ground operations.”
David LaFay, Senior Director of Operational Excellence at PrimeFlight, commented: “Partnering with dBD Communications equips our teams with field-proven, reliable communication systems engineered to meet the rigorous demands of ground handling. Expanding this collaboration across North America ensures operational consistency and confidence across our network.”
At the core of dBD Communications’ aviation product portfolio is the Minerva platform—a dedicated wireless duplex communication system designed specifically for the challenges of airport ground handling.
Derived from the Minerva platform, operators can select configurations aligned with their operational needs: Athena, developed for two-person teams, or Apollo, which supports multi-operator workflows.
