SITA ACQUIRES CCM TO BRING TO LIFE THE AIRPORTS OF THE FUTURE BY INTEGRATING TRAVEL TECH WITH HIGH-END DESIGN
With this in mind, SITA, the global leader in air transport technology, today announced the closure of the acquisition of CCM, headquartered in Milan, Italy , a world-renowned expert and leader in the design, production, and creation of airport interiors. This strategic move aims to redefine how airports function by seamlessly blending technology and interior design to create future-ready spaces.
CCM is synonymous with world famous high-quality Italian design in the airport space. It works with leading architects and designers to create efficient, functional, memorable, and stylish traveler experiences.
.
As the leader in passenger processing technology, SITA is at the forefront of managing airport space more efficiently. The industry's transformation demands a new approach to space management, where traditional check-in counters are replaced with innovative designs that reflect modern travel habits.
.
The acquisition of CCM adds valuable design and customer advisory elements to SITA's existing technology, reinforcing its commitment to leading the future of air travel.
"
For 35 years under the management of the Marinoni family, CCM has worked on more than 300 airports worldwide, designing and delivering terminal spaces that balance efficiency, flexibility, and passenger experience. Now, with SITA's expertise in passenger processing, baggage handling, and AI-driven airport operations, this acquisition will help airport customers integrate technology and design as a single go-to solution, something that was not available up to now.
According to the SITA 2024 Air Transport IT Insights report, 63% of airports are prioritizing self-service, biometrics, mobile apps, and IT spending has surged to $8.9 billion as airports focus on automation, AI, and digitalization. But these investments will only deliver their full impact if airports are physically designed to support them. Technology alone won't fix congestion. It needs smarter layouts, frictionless movement, and an infrastructure that evolves with it.
Monica Oberti has been appointed interim CEO of CCM, bringing decades of extensive expertise in reshaping and repurposing spaces at large scale globally within CCM. Ms Oberti is a member of the founding Marinoni family.
.
SITA and CCM are moving fast to integrate their expertise, ensuring that existing customers experience no disruption in service, while opening up new opportunities to optimize their airport environments. The aviation industry is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and airports need solutions that don't just help them catch up but allow them to get ahead.
