Starting points and targets

Test the various operating models in implementing SRA-CP with regard to

• Cargo handling process• Security process• Infrastructure• Capacity requirements• Throughput time and waiting time• Facilities required

Module 2

- Conventional rollerbed system, with lockable fence

- No transfer of staff and vehicles

- Direct or camera supervision by security

Initial Tentative Results

• Full evaluation 1st week December• Improved and faster process• Improve airside facilities staff

required• Security staff costs high• Investigate multiple use of camera’s

and mobile teams

Strategic partnership with Customs

• Changing role of Customs• Green lane concepts• Authorised Economic Operator• Integration of outbound control with

Security and all other inspections• Early in the process• Simple and effective

Where in the process?

• On arrival at airport?– Least disturbance– Not secure

• On arrival at handling facility?– Minimal disturbance– Handling facility secure?

• On crossing the airside border– Operational disturbance– Most secure
