About A-SMS

About Aviation Safety Management Systems:

A-SMS Approach

A-SMS embraces the Safety Management System philosophy that the key to safety lies in managing the quality of safety critical processes and controlling recognized hazards in order to achieve an acceptable level of risk.

While risk in aviation cannot be eliminated, risk can be controlled successfully through programs to identify and correct safety deficiencies before an accident occurs. Such risk management programs are essential tools to achieving acceptable levels of risk while maintaining profitability.
