We work with a diverse range of aviation customers across the globe, supporting them in their ambitions to raise levels of performance through innovation that helps drive safety, commerce and environmental responsibility.
Working with us
We use our own experience and collaborate with many of the world’s leading organisations to create a range of customer offers that enable airports, airlines, ANSPs, governments and the military to exceed their own performance expectations and keep the skies operating efficiently and effectively, whilst maintaining safety.
Some customers call on us simply for equipment and people. Others see the benefits of a closer and more collaborative partnership, where there is sharing of risk and a performance-based contracting arrangement.
Whichever way we work, our customers benefit from the knowledge and experience gained by NATS from over 40 years in the aviation industry. We see beyond the technology to the pressing operational issues faced by all working in aviation – including ourselves – every day. We’re able to apply lessons learned from complex projects we’ve successfully delivered around the world. And as one of the first ANSPs to be privatised, we’re able to back up our expertise with commercially strong solutions.
Our experience can help governments that are looking to make their airports more commercial whilst increasing operational performance and delivering the highest levels of safety.

We have considerable expertise on optimising the use of assets and shared airspace for military operations.
As well as providing commercial products and services domestically in the UK, we also work with a variety of customers across the globe enhancing operational performance.

The FMARS contract is a fundamental part of the defence of the UK, supporting both operational and flying training as well as assisting civil and military aircraft in distress. It’s great news this collaborative element of the MOD and NATS will be extended for an additional nine years.

In concert with Singapore’s Smart Nation drive, we are leveraging digital technology to transform the aviation industry in Singapore in many different ways. We look forward to working closely with NATS to co-develop the operational procedures and processes required to deploy a smart digital tower for Changi Airport.
