One Source Expands Safety Solutions with IATA GSE Programs

 

IATA continues to strengthen its safety ecosystem and, as part of its broader digital and operational initiatives, now highlights enhanced ramp safety through the IATA Enhanced GSE Recognition Program. The program accelerates the adoption of ground support equipment featuring anti‑collision and inching technology.

Benefits 

 

The IATA Enhanced GSE Recognition Program comes with several benefits for ground handlers, including:

  • Improved safety performance of Ground Handling Service Providers (GHSP)
  • Ground damage risk reduction
  • Validation of GSE fleet to industry standards
  • Recognition of achievement and display of validated fleet on IATA platform

As ground damage costs could reach $10 billion by 2035, transitioning to Enhanced GSE remains key. ONE Source strengthens this effort by providing a single, verified view of all IATA certifications, enabling objective capability comparisons and informed safety-driven decisions.

By giving airlines, handlers, and other stakeholders greater visibility into capabilities, ONE Source supports safer operations. Its validated data, global reach, and transparency complement IATA’s efforts to incentivize the modernization of GSE fleets and its overall safety strategy.
