Airport GSE Delivery Risk Score with ramp or customer impact severity of 23 score: a worked example

What does the result look like when ramp or customer impact severity reaches 23 score? The full calculation is worked below with real intermediate numbers. a station manager, procurement lead, or GSE manufacturer needs to rank delivery risks before they affect ramp readiness

The inputs for this scenario

  • Ramp or customer impact severity: 23 score (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 9)
  • Delivery-delay likelihood: 5 score (unchanged)
  • Schedule control and detection score: 5 score (unchanged)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Airport GSE delivery risk score = ramp/customer impact severity × delivery-delay likelihood × schedule control and detection score) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 12.2 risk score for airport gse delivery risk score, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 23 score for ramp or customer impact severity.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 5 score for delivery-delay likelihood.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 5 score for schedule control and detection score.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where ramp or customer impact severity sits at 9 score and the headline result is 6.6 risk score, this scenario comes in 84.85% above the baseline at 12.2 risk score.
  • A figure at this level is achievable when ramp or customer impact severity is genuinely sustained, not just peaked for a shift. Scores are subjective ratings, so they prioritize relative risk well but should not be read as an absolute probability of a late delivery.
