IATA has contracted Gates Aviation on three occasions to undertake specialist research and provide advice and guidance for Secure Freight - its supply chain security project. Through applying clarity of thought, constructive challenge and subject matter expertise, Gates Aviation delivered a compelling feasibility study, comprehensive strategy workbook and interim security standards. Their work conditioned, and provided a solid foundation for, Secure Freight development.

I would like to express my gratitude for each one of you for your kind support and understanding during the 3rd GASC. Your indirect contribution to the humanitarian community in saving lives will always be very much appreciated. Your help, support and ideas on approaches to better achieve the objectives of the 3rd Global Aviation Safety Conference were insightful and of great assistance.

World Food Programme
 

When running a full scale major crisis management exercise, it is important for me to have external support who can add real value and independence to enhance our internal procedures. Without doubt, Gates Aviation was my No 1 choice. They were engaged from the start and were very pro-active and quick in understanding my requirements and how they could assist in delivering my objectives through their industry experience. They also provided an invaluable ‘sense-check’ throughout the process on our planning, internal engagement and delivery of the exercise.
