Four Keys to a successful RA3 validation
What we offer:
We offer Regulated Agents the chance to schedule a pre-validation assessment which is the 1st key step of the validation process.
Why pre-validate ?
It's a convenient and economical way to establish the scope of the validation, to understand the regulations and requirements and how they are interpreted, and to gather, all the information needed in order to be fully prepared for a smooth, swift and successful validation.
What we do:
The pre-validation assessment is a documentation 3 step process:
- step 1:Begins with a thorough screening of either the entities' programme, either the entities' security processes, which is the indispensable cornerstone of the overall validation process.
- step 2:Screening of all documentation related to this security programme or the security processes.
- step 3:We complete the validation checklist for RA3 with the information compiled.
You can use our on-line RA3 pre-validation survey to check your readiness and compliance to the EU requirements.
What we do:
The RA3 validation is a 2 step process:
- step 1:Begins with the pre-validation assessment which is the 1st key step of the validation process. This step must be conclusive before the EU aviation security validator can proceed to the on-site validation.
- step 2:On-site validation. The EU aviation security validator will assess on-site the effectiveness and the efficacy of the Regulated Agents' security processes. If conclusive, he shall give to the entity the validation report stating the entity is designated RA3.
