  • Robust Querying, Data Analytics and Reporting Capabilities - ProSafeT's advanced data querying, analytics, and reporting capabilities allow airlines to monitor Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Safety Performance Indicators (SPIs) and perform trend analyses. This gives decision makers insight on the organization's effectiveness in meeting safety objectives. It also provides predictive insight on the organization's daily operations which can facilitate swift action in implementing risk controls before it escalates to an incident.


SMS Recap

As of November 2006, implementation of a Safety Management System (SMS) became mandatory for airline international operations and is steadily becoming a standard across the aviation industry. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) defines SMS as a systematic approach to managing safety, including the necessary organizational structures, accountabilities, policies and procedures. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) describes that SMS is the formal, top down, organization-wide approach to managing safety risk and assuring the effectiveness of safety risk controls. The essential idea of SMS is to provide a systematic approach to achieving acceptable levels of safety risk. SMS provides airlines with a framework to effectively manage and mitigate risks, achieve their safety goals, and establish and foster the development of a positive safety culture.

In the past, safety management involved simply responding to and investigating incidents-a reactive approach. Over the years, the aviation industry has experienced a major shift from a reactive approach to a more holistic approach to incorporate three forms of rationale-reactive, proactive and predictive. Proactive safety management facilitates the identification of hazards and assessment of associated risk before they materialize into incidents. This allows airlines to reduce and control any risk before it escalates to an unacceptable level. Predictive safety management facilitates the identification of hazards based on normal operational data. This involves airlines utilizing all the safety data collected to retrieve insights on what is happening in normal day-to-day operations. With this insight, airlines can predict potential risks and reduce the risk of an incident. The key to a proactive and predictive approach is the support of the decision makers, as decision makers are reactive by nature. SMS is all about decision making, so it is crucial for the decision makers to establish the best safety practices.


Regulatory Compliance

Based on location, airlines are expected to comply with the requirements of the applicable regulatory authorities. Regulatory authorities have various policies, directives, rules, and regulations that outline requirements for safety operations and management. Airlines must comply with these requirements to achieve an acceptable level of safety. Each regulatory authority also provides additional guidance and resources on establishing the framework, processes, and activities to meet the requirements.

Four Pillars of SMS

Safety Policy

Establishes Senior Management's commitment to continually improve safety; defines the methods, processes, and organizational structure needed to meet safety goals

Safety Assurance

Evaluates the continued effectiveness of implemented risk control strategies; supports the identification of new hazards


Safety Risk Management

Determines the need for, and adequacy of, new or revised risk controls based on the assessment of acceptable risk


Safety Promotion

Includes training, communication, and other actions to create a postive safety culture within all levels of the workforce.


Safety Policy is a declaration of the organization's safety principles. It sets the foundation and expectations for the organization's safety standards. Airlines must define and document their safety objectives and the methods, processes, and organizational structure needed to meet safety goals. Transparency is key in safety management, so airlines must ensure that the safety policy is accessible to all staff. Transparency fosters a culture of open communication, cooperation, and accountability.

Safety Assurance requires that airlines examine and assess their operation to ensure that their processes are efficient and effective in meeting safety performance requirements. Continuous improvement of the SMS is a core element of Safety Assurance. Airlines must be vigilant in continuously monitoring safety performance, identifying areas of improvement, and implementing corrective actions. Airlines can achieve this by conducting regular audits and evaluations. This includes external audits to meet regulatory compliance, such as the FAA, ICAO, and EASA orders, standards, policies and directives, as well as internal audits. Audits and evaluations provide airlines with insight and analysis on the opportunities to improve safety and minimize risk.

Safety Risk Management provides a formal process for airlines to identify hazards, assess risks, and implement risk controls. It is important for airlines to know what hazards exist and the level of risk they pose to its safety operations in order to mitigate the risk appropriately. Risk analysis generally entails airlines determining the severity and likelihood of an identified hazard. Airlines should maintain a hazard register and a record of all risk controls to monitor its effectiveness in addressing and mitigating risk.

Safety Promotion is all about promoting a positive safety culture. This framework includes providing SMS training, system and safety communication and awareness, matching competency requirements to system requirements and disseminating safety lessons learned. It is important to recognize that everyone has a role in promoting safety and ensure that employees have the necessary knowledge, skills, and tools to effectively perform activities in accordance with their role.


Elements of Good SMS Software

It is important for airlines to not only implement an SMS at their organization, but to also utilize the right tools to efficiently and effectively conduct safety management activities. Airlines can establish and incorporate the four pillars of SMS-safety policy, safety assurance, safety risk management, and safety promotion-but without the right tools, the outcome will not be as positive. Airlines should strive to achieve the highest levels of safety, which can be achieved with a robust SMS software solution. A comprehensive SMS software solution can automate all safety processes to maximize the effiency and effectiveness of the SMS. Airlines should consider the following key features to procure and implement a holisitic SMS software solution:

  • Intuitiveness - A digital process does not automatically equate to an efficient process. It is important that the SMS plaform is user-friendly to provide intuitive navigation for end users and maximize operational efficiencies. By reducing the number of clicks it takes to perform tasks in a system, an intuitive platform will enhance productivity and can lower labor costs.

  • Configurability - An organization should not adjust its operations to adapt to the SMS software. A robust SMS software solution should be configurable to adapt and support the organization's specific business rules and processes. It is important that the system can be configured to comply with global regulations such as FAA, ICAO and EASA. User-empowered configuration is also essential for organizations to have the ability to make any changes with minimal vendor support.

  • Data Analytics and Reports - The most significant part of automating SMS is utlizing the data for decision-making. A system with analytics and reporting capabilities will allow translation of SMS data into insight that enables airlines to identify problems and make informed decisions for the future. This contributes to a strong safety culture and makes it easy for organizations to incorporate reactive, proactive and predictive thinking for incident prevention.

Elements of Holistic SMS Software

  • Launch Investigations and SRAs directly from safety reports/events
  • Link safety reports to investigations and SRAs to eliminate duplication of efforts and increase organizational transparency
  • Associate Corrective Actions, Findings and Recommendations easily and perform risk assessment at every stage
  • Consolidate entire SMS process in one system

Signs That a Holistic SMS Solution is Needed

  • Disparate data storage and poor data sharing
  • Difficulty closing the loop on corrective actions and deploying an effective mitigation strategy
  • Unable to tie relevant safety information together
  • Lack of trend-analysis for different departments
  • Time-consuming process for generating reports
