SAFETY EVENT REPORTING AND MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PICKING UP STEAM
Alexandria, VA, December 1, 2009 — The Air Charter Safety Foundation’s safety event reporting and management system, AVSiS, continues to build momentum with sixty Part 135 operators using this premiere software service that is free to all on-demand air charter operators.
AVSiS allows pilots, line employees, maintenance staff and other employees to report safety information to the company safety manager for development of mitigation and intervention strategies. Features of this widely successful reporting software include:
-
Logs safety events as incidents (events with a direct safety implication) or occurrences (events that may have resulted in an incident). -
Enables the user to categorize the event and apply a severity rating (important for Safety Management System (SMS) programs). -
Tracks event investigations and flags overdue items. The safety manager may make recommendations and monitor implementation. -
Provides statistical reports and graphical trend analyses by incident type, aircraft model location, or other specified field. The AVSiS Query Builder is a powerful and flexible tool to find the records you require.
As AVSiS continues to add new operators, it will soon be able to provide critical trend analysis data when safety issues arise with a specific aircraft type. This trend analysis data will be available to all operators using AVSiS.
“We are thrilled with the growing number of operators from the Part 135 community utilizing this important safety event reporting software,” stated ACSF Executive Director Jacqueline Rosser. “It is clear that the Part 135 community is finding real value by using AVSiS, and that will ultimately provide big dividends to operators in identifying common safety issues per aircraft type.”
# # # Through research, collaboration and education, the Air Charter Safety Foundation advances charter and shared aircraft ownership industry standards and best practices; promulgates safety, security and service benchmarks; and promotes the universal acceptance of safety management systems.
