BJS Aviation Inc.

BJS Aviation Inc. is an employee-owned aviation management consulting firm. It was created to give clients experienced airport consultants. The firm says it is flexible, adaptable and responsive to client needs. The contact page lists an office in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The firm reviews, analyzes and builds business plans for airports. Its work tests financial performance, funding sources and whether planned airport capital projects are affordable. This helps airports decide what they can afford. The consultants can also assess funding options such as debt, FAA grants, passenger facility charges, internal funds and TIFIA loans.

The founding consultants have decades of advisory work for U.S. and international clients. The site says the firm has worked with more than 80 airport clients. These range from small general aviation airports to large domestic and international hubs.

Public project examples on the site include market studies, airline rates and charges models, PFC applications, lease negotiations and airline agreement updates. Named airports include Gulf Shores, New Haven, San Juan, Green Bay, Eastern Iowa and Atlantic City. The work covers both small and large airports.

The about page profiles two consultants. Brett J. Simon has 16 years of experience in financial analysis and business planning. Andrew F. Borden has more than 20 years in aviation, including nearly a decade as an airport consultant. He is a CPA and has spoken at industry conferences.

The firm says its small size lets it react quickly to client requests. When a project needs it, the firm can add specialist contract consultants. Visitors can reach the firm through a web form or by phone at 513-213-2758.
