AAAE and Aviation Management Consulting Group (AMCG) present the Sponsor Assurances, Leasing Policies and Minimum Standards Workshop, which will be held April 25-26 in Addison, Texas.
Having “your backyard is in order” is one of the best ways an airport owner/operator can ensure that quality aviation products, services, and facilities are consistently being provided at an airport; that the health, safety, interest, and general welfare of the public is continually being protected; and that the potential for conflict and complaints (informal or formal) is constantly being reduced.
As such, this dynamic and highly interactive workshop will take (apply) a best practices approach to the development (or updating), implementation, and enforcement of a number of extremely critical airport policy documents including “general aviation” Leasing (and Rates and Charges) Policies, Minimum Standards, and Rules and Regulations (commonly referred to as “primary guiding documents”).
In addition to establishing the foundation for doing business and ensuring compliance with the airport (sponsor) assurances and other related requirements, these documents play a vital role in the day-to-day operation and management of an airport – large or small. Most importantly, these documents help ensure that the airport’s backyard is, indeed, in order. Therefore, it is essential to have these documents (or tools) in the airport’s toolbox and it is crucial to keep them current, relevant (from an activity standpoint), and appropriate and reasonable for the airport and the market.
With the airport assurances and other related compliance requirements serving as a foundation, the workshop will thoroughly examine each of these documents (including the definition, role/purpose, applicability, audience, and major elements comprising each document) and delve into the intricacies, subtleties, and challenges of the development and review process. Throughout this workshop, key issues (e.g., exclusive rights, economic non-discrimination, self-fueling, through-the-fence activities, independent operators, etc.) will be examined, recent case studies will be discussed, relevant real world examples will be given, and ample opportunities to interact with industry experts, colleagues, and peers will be provided.
If you want to gain a better understanding of the airport assurances and other compliance requirements, if you’re contemplating (or you’re currently in the process of) developing (or updating) these documents, or if you have questions (or you’re having challenges) relating to the implementation or enforcement of these documents, this workshop is for you.
