Logplan

Logplan is an airport logistics engineering firm in the United States. It designs baggage handling systems, in-line baggage screening systems, automated people movers and air cargo facilities for airports around the world. The company has worked for airport clients since 1987.

Its customers include airports, architects and general contractors. Logplan says it supports projects large and small for both US and international airports. It lists more than 225 successful projects and more than 15 professional services in baggage handling, people movers and air cargo systems.

Baggage handling is its biggest area. The firm designs solutions meant to last for many years, working with clients as a team. It says its baggage handling design work has grown strongly since 2019. In-line baggage screening is part of that work.

For automated people movers, Logplan supports all stages, from early development through to operation. For air cargo, it focuses on practical and cost-effective cargo solutions that deliver real results.

The firm points to a long list of firsts. It designed the first Individual Carrier System at Frankfurt Airport in 1978. It was involved with the first bag on an ICS through a screening machine at Leipzig-Halle in 2000. In 2002 it brought 24 volt control system voltage and low-side conveyors to the US at Denver International Airport. Later projects include the first active ICS at Münster Osnabrück in 2003, a five-level screening tray system in Munich in 2004, and the first ICS approved by the TSA in 2014. In 2022 it worked on the largest bag drop system in the US, at Denver.

Logplan offers one-to-one support for logistics problems of any size. It uses new technology and custom designs rather than one standard approach. The company also states a goal of building a diverse and inclusive team.
