Netherlands Airport Consultants (NACO)

Netherlands Airport Consultants (NACO) is an international aviation consultancy headquartered in The Hague, Netherlands, and a subsidiary of the Royal HaskoningDHV Group. NACO has over 75 years of experience working with airports worldwide and describes itself as a global leader in aviation consultancy. The firm's expertise spans the full airport ecosystem: airport master planning, air cargo services, airport building design, airport customer experience, airport infrastructure, special airport systems, strategic aviation advisory, and sustainable aviation and climate resilience. NACO works with airports to plan, design, and optimise their terminals, runways, aprons, and cargo facilities, delivering both greenfield airport development and expansion of existing infrastructure. A proprietary tool, RCR-Tool©, is operational at 11 airports and automates the ICAO Global Reporting Format process for runway condition reporting, providing 24/7 intelligent monitoring that uses live rainfall data and hydrological modelling to simulate runway surface conditions and reduce excursion risks. NACO also offers a CX Quick Scan, a benchmarking tool to assess airport customer experience and identify revenue and satisfaction improvement opportunities. The company draws on its parent company Haskoning's multi-disciplinary engineering capabilities and has delivered projects at airports in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and the Americas. NACO's team comprises engineers, architects, planners, and aviation specialists who embed sustainability and resilience into every project phase from strategy through delivery.
