ACI-ASA Ground Handling Service Provider and Airport Operator Agreement Template – Version 2.0
The ACI-Airport Services Association (ASA) Ground Handling Service Provider and Airport Operator Agreement Template aims to improve collaboration between airport operators and ground handling service providers, by helping to formalize the relationships between the organizations and harmonize requirements and standards for operating at an airport and around an aircraft.
The Agreement Template is based on ACI and ASA best practices and supports the ACI Ground Handling Policy Paper which states that “Airport operators should require each Ground Handling Service Provider to sign a license or concession agreement in order for it to operate on the airport.”
The template is a flexible document that can be tailored to fit local contexts, laws, regulations, customs, and practices, as well as the specific needs established when negotiating the agreement.
