ICAO Audits
Compliance with the national, regional and international regulations is the minimum that States and industry organisations can do to protect passengers, staff, infrastructure and business reputation. In pursuing safer and secure aviation, we can offer UK CAA aviation security specialists’ expertise, those shaping the UK and international aviation security policies and standards to help the aviation industry meet domestic and international security requirements.
ICAO Pre-Audit Preparation
Preparing for an ICAO USAP audit can be a complicated process. We can provide UK CAA best practice advice across the entire ICAO audit process to help States achieve security compliance with the ICAO standards.
We can assemble a UK CAA security expert team to work with you to prepare for the audit. Our team can develop an Inception Report, highlighting the status of Protocol Questions across all Critical Elements providing:
- Guidance to pre-audit questionnaires and compliance checklists.
- Preparation of pre-audit documentation.
ICAO Post-Audit & Corrective Action Plans
We can work with States to address any issues raised during the USAP audit.
Where necessary, our experts can work collaboratively to review USAP findings and develop a Corrective Action Plan (CAP), highlighting actions required to address noncompliance. Our support can include:
- Corrective action technical assistance to rectify any security oversight deficiencies identified in the USAP audit.
- Development of appropriate security regulatory frameworks for long-term, sustainable compliance with national and international best practice.
- Capacity building and training to ensure regulatory and inspectorate staff are competently carrying out security oversight functions.
