Hangars, equipment, and safety systems — is the ground support infrastructure ready for the operation it supports?
Standalone operational assessments are independent evaluations for established operators or their clients, such as resorts, mining companies, and oil and gas producers, who depend on an aviation service provider and need to know it can deliver the level and efficiency of service their project requires. Each assessment can be contracted separately or bundled with the others into a comprehensive package.
Aircraft get the attention; the infrastructure around them gets the deferrals. This assessment evaluates the facilities and support equipment on which every flight ultimately depends — from the hangar roof to the fire extinguishers.
What the assessment covers
- Facilities and support equipment, measured against operational demands.
- General safety throughout the facility.
- Fire prevention and contingency plans.
- Hangar maintenance and equipment maintenance programs.
- Environmental and workplace safety practices and regulatory compliance.
For seaplane operators
For seaplane and amphibious operations, this assessment extends naturally to the waterfront: docks, ramps, jetties, moorings, and the remote base facilities used for passenger transfer infrastructure I have planned, costed, and operated in the Maldives, the Philippines, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Canada, and helped regulate as a member of the ICAO water aerodromes working group.
What you receive
A complete evaluation with findings and prioritized recommendations, ensuring all aircraft operating infrastructure is ready for flight operations. Every assessment draws on the IATA Aviation Safety Management Diploma, IATA accreditation as a safety and quality auditor, and more than twenty airline and operator audits completed worldwide.
Once the assessment is complete, I can help develop and implement your company’s scope of work — so you get the realistic level of aviation service your project requires. Your team can concentrate on the task at hand: catering to tourists, producing oil, laying pipelines, or mining minerals.
