We’re proud to share that Klayo has been named the winner of the Innovation Award in Workforce Digitalization at the 2025 Airport Technology Excellence Awards. This prestigious recognition, powered by GlobalData’s industry intelligence, honors companies leading meaningful progress across the global airport sector.

For us, this award reflects more than innovation; it affirms the impact we’re having on airport workforce operations. Klayo was purpose-built for the aviation environment, helping airports move beyond disconnected systems, manual processes, and compliance headaches. We’ve created a platform that brings workforce planning, compliance, and development into one, intuitive system, designed specifically for airport operations.

 

Built for Airports, Designed for Action

Airports face distinct challenges when it comes to managing people: highly specialized roles, strict regulatory requirements, and constant change on the ground. Klayo’s platform reflects this complexity and turns it into a strategic advantage.

We give operational leaders real-time visibility into workforce readiness and clear insights into what’s needed to stay ahead. Whether you're assessing skill gaps, assigning airside-critical tasks, or preparing for an audit, Klayo ensures you have the right people in the right roles, every time.

With built-in Competency Gaps Analysis, smart job frameworks, and operationally-aligned data architecture, we help airports anticipate workforce needs before they become shortfalls.

 

Real Results on the Ground

The recognition from GlobalData builds on the real-world impact we’re delivering for airport operators around the world.

At Houston Airport System, Klayo supports more than 1,300 employees across three major airports. The organization now benefits from centralized training oversight, standardized job roles, and career progression tools that give staff a clear path forward. Managers can easily track readiness and assign training, while executives gain a single view of workforce capability across the system.

 

At Airport Development Group (ADG), Klayo helps a geographically dispersed workforce stay compliant and connected. ADG’s leadership team now has instant access to compliance status across locations, reduced admin time, and greater confidence in audit preparation. Staff also benefit from streamlined training assignments and a clearer understanding of their own development needs.

 

A Platform That Grows With You

Klayo integrates with existing HR and learning systems to provide one source of truth for workforce data. We work alongside your current tech stack—not in competition with it—so you can digitize confidently, without disrupting what’s already working.

And because every airport is different, Klayo adapts to reflect your actual structure, job roles, and compliance priorities. Whether you're managing ten people or ten thousand, our platform scales to support your goals.

“This award is a reflection of the airport community we serve,” says Eddie Ragauskas, CEO at Ceventas, the company behind Klayo. “We're proud to support the teams who keep airports running and excited to continue raising the standard for what’s possible in workforce management.”

We’re honored to be recognized among the top innovators in the sector and remain committed to helping airports stay compliant, stay ready, and stay ahead.
