The Aimm developers are Airport Owners too.
The Lockie
family have owned and operated West Auckland Airport Parakai, a busy
sky diving and recreational airport, since 2005. The airport business
has a mix of commercial, tourism, and general aviation operations. As
Airport directors, the Aimm leadership team are acutely aware of the
unique responsibilities and challenges of running an airport. Coming
from a software development background, it was a natural step to
develop software to make it easier to run their own Airport
operations, and then make this software available to other aerodromes.
Using their combined experience, they founded and developed Aimm, an
airport management system offering airport movement monitoring,
statistical analysis and compliance, leveraging the power of 'the
Cloud' and the latest technologies for audio and ADS-B aircraft
tracking.
Our team:
Directors
Carreen Lockie (with Harvey Lockie) founded Lockie
Computing in the 1980s. Carreen with the role of Business & Marketing
Manager and Harvey concentrating on programming and setting up new
systems.
From there, the
business evolved, gradually adding extra programming and support
staff, and in 1999, with a new business partner, they became
HealthSoft Ltd. The sale of software to Boots the Chemist (UK), led to
the purchase of West Auckland Airport, Parakai where Carreen is on the
board of directors. The three Lockie sons joined as Directors and
together helped grow West Auckland Airport Parakai to a thriving
commercial and recreational airport. The Lockies worked together
to develop the Aimm Airport management software, Carreen again taking
part in the management and marketing.
