AMC1 ARO.RAMP.150(b)(4)(iii) Agency coordination tasks ED Decision 2019/007/R SYSTEM-WIDE COORDINATION OF RAMP INSPECTIONS In order to ensure a coordinated approach in establishing a risk-based number of ramp inspections for operators, the Agency should establish annual targets. When doing so, the following should be taken into account: (a) Such targets should only be established for operators flying to Member States’ territories located in the ICAO EUR region; (b) The targets for the upcoming year should be distributed to the Member States at the latest by 1 December and updated at least once during the upcoming year; and (c) The targets should be established per Member State for two layers of operators as follows: (1) a target number of inspections for each operator for which the average number of commercial flights for the previous 12 months in each Member State is beyond a threshold defined by the Agency, based on an assessment of the safety risks and the number of flights (‘layer 1’); (2) an overall target number of inspections for those operators not covered by (1) (‘layer 2’).
