New Workflow for Airport Safety Management System Software

ANCHORAGE, Alaska - March 11, 2013 - PRLog -- SMS Pro is Web based software that allows airports (aerodromes) in setting up and effectively managing an ICAO compliant safety management system (SMS). SMS Pro facilitates airport management of both reactive and proactive safety processes. SMS Pro has modified its long-established risk management workflow to logically address aviation risk management processes suitable for a wider range of aviation industry segments.

SMS Pro is based on international regulations (e.g. ICAO Doc 9859 Safety Management Manual) and therefore ensures compliance with most relevant airport safety management standards around the world. SMS Pro centralizes all safety relevant information (Safety Reports, Hazards, Findings, Corrective Actions, Audits, Lessons Learned) and improves information flow within the entire airport organization. http://www.asms-pro.com

SMS Pro's risk management workflow has been used by several hundred airports, airlines, flight schools, corporate flight departments, aviation maintenance and FBOs around the world since January 2008. The airport risk management workflow has been suitable to all civil aviation authorities (CAA) who have audited the airport aviation safety management software. Most CAA auditors claimed that SMS Pro has the most complete, robust and flexible workflow of all airport safety management systems on the market. http://www.aviation-sms.com
