Airport Development Group (ADG) Stays Audit-Ready Across Three Sites with Klayo

Airport Development Group (ADG) operates three airports across the Northern Territory: Darwin International Airport and the Alice Springs and Tennant Creek regional airports. With just 49 staff covering a wide range of responsibilities, staying on top of compliance isn’t just a regulatory requirement, it’s critical to safe operations and smooth audits.

In a high-risk, heavily regulated industry, ADG needed a smarter way to manage competencies and certifications without increasing admin workload. That’s where Klayo came in.

The Challenge

With limited resources and geographically dispersed teams, prior to implementing Klayo, the compliance manager was relying on manual processes and spreadsheets to track staff certifications. That approach made it difficult to:

• Quickly identify upcoming certification expiries
• Prove compliance readiness for audits
• Ensure operational safety by ensuring staff’s certifications and training were up to date

Klayo Solution: A Centralized View of Compliance

Klayo’s platform provided ADG with a real-time, centralized view of workforce certifications and role-based competencies across all three airport locations.

With Klayo, ADG is able to:

• Automatically track and receive alerts on upcoming certification expiries
• Confidently prepare for audits with instant access to proof of compliance
• Ensure staff are always up-to-date with their qualifications and regulatory requirements

The Results

Since implementing Klayo, Airport Development Group has seen:

• Improved compliance visibility
• Reduced admin time and the risk for human error by removing the need for manual tracking
• Stronger safety outcomes by ensuring staff are always trained and qualified
• Increased audit confidence with real-time access to compliance data

For ADG, compliance isn’t just about ticking regulatory boxes, it’s about keeping operations safe and efficient. Klayo enables their lean team to stay ahead of workforce requirements without the burden of constant oversight.

Making Workforce Planning a Strategic Advantage

Airport Development Group’s story is proof that even small to medium airport operators can turn compliance into a strategic strength.

With Klayo, they’ve moved from reactive tracking to proactive oversight ensuring their team stays qualified, safe, and ready for anything.
