Contingency Planning and Business Continuity
No-one likes to think of things going wrong, but being prepared for events such as equipment failures, freak weather occurrences or a terrorist incident is crucial in maintaining the safety of aviation operations and allowing Airports to continue operating.
Osprey staff understand that full contingency facilities are expensive to provide and maintain, so our approach is to assess the risk associated with a failure and to provide pragmatic solutions that will meet the operational and business need.
We can support you in the following areas:
- Risk assessments
- Gap analysis, considering operating procedures and/or infrastructure
- Requirements capture, starting with the operational requirement, which drives the infrastructure and equipment requirement
- The Contingency Planning Process as detailed within EUROCONTROL Guidelines for Contingency Planning of Air Navigation Services
- Considering related planning requirements, including:
– Air traffic training requirements
– Engineering and technical considerations
– Aeronautical Information Service
– Meteorological services - Activation and reversion processes and assurance
- Crisis management plans

Leeds Bradford International Airport (LBIA) is an expanding regional business which requires efficient use of its resources to sustain current and future growth. LBIA demands quality, excellence, experience and value in its decision making processes and correspondingly has chosen Osprey for a number of specialised projects.
The Airport has benefitted from Osprey’s wealth of experience and independence in Air Traffic Services in the the procurement of a new Radar Display System. Initially Osprey developed a Surveillance System Business Case Report to support capital budgeting. Subsequent to Board Approval for the project, Osprey guided the procurement of the new Radar Display System through the OJEU process and developed the initial Safety Argument and the Implementation Plan.
It is critical for Leeds Bradford Airport to develop close harmonious working relationships with its partners in order to support the important business decisions and will continue to consider Osprey to assist in achieving its goals.
