CDM brings together airlines, civil aviation authorities and airports in an effort to improve air traffic management through information exchange, data sharing and improved automated decision support tools.

This philosophy of collaboration promises to become the standard in aviation.

CDM enables information sharing and facilitates decision making processes by ensuring that stakeholders are provided with timely and accurate information, essential for the planning of their operations.

For example, accurate estimates of arrival and departure times improve aircraft handling, apron services, stand and gate management, ATC and Air Traffic Flow Management.

By enabling decision making based on accurate shared information, CDM increases predictability in case of unforeseen events or disruption.
