AB  - This paper analyses the relationship between capacity and cost-efficiency at an en-route Air Traffic Control Centre level. It develops a set of cost-efficiency metrics to describe the centre planning process, and compares these results to cost- efficiency values. In order to understand the effect of the new tools and procedures implemented at the centre on its cost- efficiency, statistical analysis of the operational data before and after implementation is undertaken. The results show that the introduction of a dynamic shift management enabled by staff planning automation tools, along with a flexible roster and an appropriate planning process can simultaneously enhance capacity and cost-efficiency. These improvements are mapped to the SESAR Operational Improvements, to assess the feasibility of the programme to achieve its capacity and cost-efficiency improvement targets. A set of recommendations is developed.
