Advanced Safety Management Systems (SMS) and Integrated Management Systems (IMS) – Part-147 | ALL4JETS

Advanced Safety Management Systems (SMS) and Integrated Management Systems (IMS)

Introduction

Any organization which introduced a Safety Management System (SMS) conducts activities aimed at improving its operational efficiency and safety. The organization aims to ensure the proper functioning of SMS while maintaining and even reducing the overall operating costs. At the same time, other systems used in the organization, e.g. on compliance with applicable regulations, health and safety at work, quality, security, fatigue management, are usually the subjects of separate studies, although they are based on a similar decision-making mechanism. Therefore, combining the similarities and common needs of different systems leads to more efficient and effective management at the highest level through development of an Integrated Management System (IMS). The integration of the above-mentioned systems results in the reduction of operating costs, reduction of tasks duplication and in more effective use of the working time of the management staff.

The training aims to familiarize participants with tools and methodology that will ensure effective management of the organization in all aspects of its functioning.

Prerequisites

Participants are asked to bring a laptop to the course in order to gain access to training materials (materials will be made available only in electronic form)

Target group

Accountable managers, safety and quality departments management and staff, health and safety specialists, aviation safety specialists, heads of departments and inspectors of the Civil Aviation Authority.

Teaching objectives

  • familiarizing with key elements of an effective safety management system (SMS); implementation of an integrated management system (IMS) tailored to the needs of the organization; 
  • familiarizing with business practices to develop and implement an advanced (level 2) safety management system (SMS); 
  • gaining experience in teamwork in a business and technical environment related to aviation.

Scope

DAY 1:

  • Risk management: what we should do: Case Studies / Dynamic Risk Management Dashboards and Risk Acceptance Criteria;
  • Data collection and analysis plan: what we should do: performance measurement: what we should do / Safety performance metrics and metrics / Business voice measurement (VOB) / Case studies / SMS Continuous Improvement; 
  • Case study: Assess your SMS effectiveness; 
  • Identify your shortcomings in the field of SMS and identify areas for improvement: what you are doing, delays and downsides. Identify what needs to be done; 
  • Define an SMS pilot project.

DAY 2:

  • Integrated Management Systems (IMS): from distributed management systems and activities to concentrated information, concentrated work and connecting activities;
