28/2/2018 08:08 | RNS Number : 1435G 28 February 2018 Baines Simmons and Frazer-Nash Consultancy awarded four-year STEP contract by the Ministry of Defence Baines Simmons, part of the Air Partner group, has been awarded the contract for the Safety Training for Error Prevention (STEP) programme by the Ministry of Defence (MOD), in partnership with engineering specialist Frazer-Nash Consultancy. The contract is worth between £2 million and £3 million and will span the next four years, with the option of two one-year extensions. The contract will also serve as a framework agreement to support and facilitate safety-related sub-projects across the MOD. STEP is the successor to the Defence Aviation Error Management System (DAEMS) contracts, which were technical support initiatives designed to assist cultural change and facilitate the establishment of an effective Safety Management System (SMS) across the Defence Aviation Environment (DAE). Baines Simmons and Frazer-Nash will provide support within the STEP programme to further embed Error Management (EM) and to support the progression towards the next stage of safety maturity, as an effective SMS is developed across the DAE. With the formation of the Defence Safety Agency (DSA), there is the potential opportunity for STEP to deliver a Training Needs Analysis (TNA) to identify emerging training requirements across the other MOD regulatory domains and develop appropriate training and technical support solutions. Mark Briffa, CEO at Air Partner, said: 'This is an extremely important initiative for the MOD and I am delighted that we will be supporting them as they take this next step in further strengthening the safety processes they have in place. This contract win is a great start to 2018, following on from a successful 2017 in which we won a number of contracts with tier one national carriers, international civil airlines, the Royal Air Force of Oman and the European Defence Agency, among others." Andy Llewellyn, STEP Programme Manager at Baines Simmons, added: "It has been a fantastic team effort to secure the STEP contract, which allows Baines Simmons and Frazer-Nash to build upon the success of the Defence Aviation Error Management System (DAEMS) programmes. Together with the safety professionals within the Military Aviation Authority (MAA) and those across the DAE regulated community (with whom we have worked to establish DAEMS), we have paved the way for the STEP programme. This represents a challenging but exciting opportunity and we will continue to act as trusted advisors to the MOD and assist in any way we can to ensure that an effective SMS prevails, not only within the DAE but across the MOD as a whole". Real Admiral Paul Chivers, Director MAA, said: "The Military Aviation Authority (MAA) have been working with Baines Simmons over the last 6 years to comprehensively deliver Air Safety training. The awarding of the STEP contract will allow the MAA to continue delivering assured Air Safety training alongside our strategic partner with a common aim of ensuring an increased awareness of Air Safety with the Defence Aviation Environment." Tim Andrews, Business Manager at Frazer-Nash Consultancy, said: "Working collaboratively, we look forward to providing change management, training analysis and specialist technical support to the programme, which will help the MOD to prevent accidents, reduce risk to life, enhance its operational capability and drive down unnecessary resource expenditure." It has been a successful period for Baines Simmons, in which it was also announced that it has secured two separate contracts with two NATO operating units, the Heavy Airlift Wing at Papa, Hungary, and the AWACS unit (Airborne Warning and Control System) in Geilenkirchen, Germany. Baines Simmons will help the units to understand the benefits and the challenges associated with EMAR (European Military Airworthiness Requirements) 21, 145 and M implementation. | masurenguy | |

A detailed update on business performance will be provided with the full year results, which are expected to be released on 26 April 2018. With 2 weeks to go before the end of the financial year, Air Partner is pleased to report that it has had a good second half. This has been driven by continued performance across all product lines within the Broking division, including strong results in the US & Freight. In Consulting & Training, the forward pipeline remains encouraging. Underlying pre-tax profit for the financial year ending 31 January 2018 is expected to be not less than £6.4m, which compares to £5.1m reported in the same period last year and ahead of market consensus of £5.9m.

SafeSkys operations relocated to our London Gatwick HQ in November 2017 and integration has now completed. In line with our clear growth strategy, the Board continues to assess investment opportunities, both organic and acquisition, to enhance or extend the services and capabilities we offer our customers, which will over the long term, strengthen and advance our market position as we deliver exceptional service and value to our customers globally. Outlook Air Partner has had another encouraging year and the Board is confident about future prospects. As we always state, the world of aviation, and most especially the global charter industry, can be volatile. Against this backdrop we manage the business for the long term, with a very clear strategy of alignment to the needs of our global customer base. | masurenguy | |
17/1/2018 18:15 | I've found suddenly tightening spreads in small caps to be quite a positive indicator. | trident5 | |
17/1/2018 12:16 | Some good support at this level... why such an unusually narrow spread for this stock... not complaining but being of a suspicious mind, I'm wondering if it is in fact being held back from drifting higher for some 'institutional' reason! | dontay | |

02/1/2018 15:44 | An interesting new article just released that highlights the emergency/evacuation plans and contracts that AIR is involved with... even Boeing! Air Partner - 02 Jan 2018Our Emergency Planning Division provides 24-hour global air evacuation planning and implementation services for any situation that clients deem an emergency, whether that be flying people out of a dangerous situation, transporting support teams to the site of a disaster, or the last-minute movement of critical personnel.Air Partner has been operating this pre-planned contingency service for 16 years, supporting industries ranging from energy, construction, banking, insurance, drilling support, mineral extraction and manufacturing to a number of leading charity organisations. In the past, Air Partner has successfully evacuated thousands of people from Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Iran, West Africa, Afghanistan, Indonesia, East Timor, Lebanon and Nepal, among others.In March this year, the Emergency Planning team at Air Partner carried out the evacuation of 43 Boeing employees to California from French Guiana during a prolonged period of civil unrest. The staff were in the French territory on the northeast coast of South America to launch a new $625 million internet satellite in partnership with ViaSat.A general strike led to the cancellation of flights and the closure of roads, schools and businesses, as demonstrators protested against a rise in crime, unemployment and living costs. As the situation escalated, Boeing activated the emergency evacuation contract it has with Air Partner in order to ensure the safe repatriation of its employees to California. Just 19 hours after Boeing authorised the evacuation, Air Partner had a Boeing 737-800 aircraft on the ground at the company's desired airport of departure, with all the necessary permits secured for the flight back to Los Angeles International Airport.Boeing has been a client of Air Partner's Emergency Planning Division for several years, and has air evacuation plans in place for several countries which may be at risk of political unrest or violence, and natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunami or pandemics. This is just one example of how we have been helping clients globally. | dontay | |
30/12/2017 13:21 | Investment Week: Chosen stock: Air Partner Air Partner is transforming into a diversified global aviation services provider, balancing earnings from its successful commercial and private jet broking businesses with specialist aviation consulting and training services. The core broking businesses are market-leading and our analysis shows that demand for private jet travel in key European and US markets is currently resilient. In particular, the group's flexible prepaid JetCard has continued to grow strongly. That said, earnings are characteristically cyclical and, despite a strong market position, Air Partner faces the challenge of more online buying of services. To further diversify, the group has recently added fatigue management consulting to its aviation safety advisory & training division, and we view these activities as a key driver of earnings growth linked to strong demand for value added and outsourced services from the airlines. We also expect to see more bolt-on acquisitions in these activities. All in all, Air Partner's fundamentals and market positions are strong. Broking is a cyclical sector but the group's activities are broad-based, and consulting and training will form a larger component of future profits. We believe that the group can deliver double digit earnings growth and strong free cash this year, with potentially more upside from acquisitions. Its valuation is attractive versus the FTSE Support Services sector and the FTSE All-Share. | masurenguy | |
