Rede VOA (Voa-SP concessionaire)
Rede VOA (branded "Voa-SP" in the airport's own Wikipedia infobox) holds the São Paulo state concession and administers the terminal/apron at this small single-carrier airport (Azul ATR72/Cessna Caravan service to Viracopos); AISWEB confirms the same local-administration phone and operational-control-center AOG line. No separately named ground-handling company was found on the operator's site, in AIP data, or on Azul's station pages, so passenger/ramp handling is presumed operator- or airline-self-provided; unconfirmed at named-company level beyond the concessionaire itself. · Airport hours 09:00-21:00 (AISWEB-confirmed); GA requires PPR >=4h before closing

Rede VOA (Voa-SP concessionaire)
Rede VOA runs Araraquara's Comissão de Segurança Aeroportuária (CSA) per the operator's own site; the terminal is confirmed (Wikipedia) to have check-in counters and X-ray screening equipment consistent with an active CSA, but no separately contracted screening/guarding company was identified, so this is treated as operator-run and unconfirmed at execution level.
