VIDEO BRIEF -

› Video Topic/Scenario:

Airports throughout the world are changing with the times. With new technologies available, consistent cost pressures, and increasing focus on customer experience, airports are looking for ways to improve and position themselves for the future. 

Accenture (ACN) is the type of partner airports need, to help them improve their metrics and become world-class. This video will be sent to airport leaders across NA (in advance of Accenture’s meeting with them) to discuss their specific pain points and needs. The main thrust of the story is that ACN is the perfect partner—for specific issues and technology implementations, as well as the overall transformation to “world-class”—to help the client achieve operations excellence, leading to the overarching goal of a customer/passenger experience that rivals the best in the world.

Identify and describe the ideal targeted outcome/future that is possible via this potential partnership, then put some meat on those bones via specific data points and examples that prove out the promises/vision we’re laying out before them.

Video Target Audience:

Senior airport executives at airports around the world. We intend to send this video as an introduction to Accenture’s “Connected Airport” capabilities in advance of (or share it during) initial client meetings.

  • The overarching objective is to elevate the customer experience to achieve “world-class” status and improve airport metrics such as Skytrax and ASQ
    • Within that is the transparent operations with real-time visibility and analytics that will enable smoother and more efficient passenger processes and experience
  • We are the right partner to get them there

Introduction (~:45 seconds)

Vision of the future

[main VO] Travel is like a portal to greater life experience.

A gateway to the world, just waiting for you to step through it…

Airports are a gateway to their local communities, enhancing prosperity and inspiring economic development by bringing tourists and business travelers to the region.

But out of 140 airports rated by Skytrax, only 12 have achieved 5-Star status… And none of those are in North America.

We’ve helped several airports improve their Skytrax rating—even ones within the top-10—maintaining their top-10 status, and developing further improvements.

Accenture knows and understands the airline business, and to fully realize your future-airport vision, we’ll unite the ecosystem—airlines, service providers, and physical infrastructure—merging physical and digital to create a 5-Star fully connected airport.

Offering a gateway to greater efficiency, and smooth and delightful travel experiences.
