Quality SMS Benefits
We’ve Done Most of the Work For You
While many proponents of SMS feel that a company's SMS should be developed from within, this method is both time consuming and taxing on the resources of key managers. Translating conceptual information and SMS requirements from ICAO, IS-BAO, FAA or Transport Canada into methods, procedures, instructions and forms, can also be a challenge.
OAG believes it is more efficient to review and modify a professionally developed SMS, rather than building a system from scratch. This approach is analogous to selecting the right aircraft based on its specifications, and then configuring, equipping and modifying it as necessary to meet specific mission requirements.
Take a look at FAA’s SMS Assurance Guide for what FAA will be looking for when SMS becomes mandated here in the US. FAA has set a very high standard by breaking down SMS Components and Elements into Processes, and then applying System Safety Attributes (such as responsibility, authority, procedures, process measures, controls and interfaces) to those processes.
OAG's years of research and development have produced a Quality SMS that is unsurpassed in the aviation industry... and the OAG system is fully editable, scalable and easily customized to suit the size and needs of your organization.
Designed to be Efficient & Cost-Effective
Easily manage and disseminate information using the Information & Training Centre, including manuals, schedules, safety promotion announcements and lessons learned. Reported hazards, errors and quality / safety concerns populate the Incident Reporter database and auto-alert up to three user-assigned managers' PDAs when an online report is received. Track and manage all risk management and quality management activities in the IR database, from anywhere in the world. Train all personnel easily and affordably with online SMS training.
Safety Benefits of your Quality SMS
Your SMS is essentially a quality management approach to controlling risk. It also provides the organizational framework to support a positive and just safety culture. For corporate and fractional flight departments, this program forms the core of the company’s safety efforts. For certificated operators such as airlines, air taxi operators and training organizations, your Quality SMS also serves to foster and maintain a relationship of mutual respect with principal inspectors. Regardless of the rules under which you operate, your Quality SMS and online SMS training provide personnel at all levels with sound decision-making tools that will reduce incidents and accidents.
Business Benefits of your Quality SMS
When your Incident Reporter database is used for quality management (such as managing and tracking customer service issues), both profits and employee morale are boosted. When hazards are identified and eliminated, safety is enhanced and productivity increases. When your people are making good decisions on a daily basis, operations are not disrupted. When your managers design risk controls into ground, maintenance and flight operations processes, accidents are avoided and incidents occur less frequently. When violations are reported and self-disclosed, civil penalties are reduced. Insurance premiums may also cost less in the long run as your company has fewer claims. The OAG Quality SMS can help save you money, right away.
