C2215: Safety Management Systems for Design, Manufacturing and Maintenance Providers in Aviation

Abstract

Content: 
This two-day, instructor-led course provides a deep dive into the two types of safety management systems regulated by the FAA – Aviation Safety SMS and Design & Manufacturing SMS. It is led by an expert in how to build and implement SMS in aviation. This course will include group work, case studies and an exam.
A Safety Management System (SMS) is a high-level, top-down decision-making system based on proactively identifying, assessing, and controlling hazards and safety risks in the design, manufacturing, and maintenance environments. Safety Management Systems have become an internationally recognized means to improve hazard and risk identification, risk management and safety assurance.
The use of an articulated Safety Management System (SMS) is required in European aviation, and is an FAA requirement for US Part 21 design & manufacturing organizations. It is voluntary for maintenance organizations in the US. These systems are recognized globally by the Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO), International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), and civil aviation authorities (CAA), as well as product/service providers as the next step in the evolution of safety in aviation.
