Custody records for shared ground operations equipment

Airport and aviation support teams handle radios, headsets, tablets, keys and portable ground-support tools across shifts. Keep custody visible between issuing points and crews.

Aviation & Airports in practice

A ramp team passes shared radios between shifts

Ground staff collect radios and handheld devices for a shift. One item is transferred to a different crew at the terminal; the operations room must confirm the return or outstanding assignment.

STEP 01

Issue

Identify the worker receiving the equipment.

STEP 02

Transfer

Record handoffs when a different crew member takes responsibility.

STEP 03

Reconcile

Reconcile radios and devices at the end of the shift.

Illustrative example. Processes depend on each organization's configuration and procedures.
