SMS Scalability

The fundamental practices of hazard identification, risk management and

continuous improvement apply to Civil SMS, Military Flight Safety and Quality

Standard


SMS Scalability – Recommendations

Align international standards

• Consistency of approach and terminology

• Supports bilateral recognition - reduces oversight burden on industry and regulators

• Close relationship between industry and local regulator

• Ex – EASA vs PVI



Advisory circulars examples are very useful to industry - scaled examples help

• General regulatory requirements support scalability

• AC recommended solutions for different sizes and types of operation

• Align the examples with the specific regulations

• Ex – procedure vs process



Align regulatory requirements, advisory circulars examples and regulatory audit checklists

• Ensure audit checklists support scalability

• Do not over assess requirements not mandated by the regulations

• Ex – Hazard Registry



Align regulatory SMS with Quality Standard requirements

• OEMs / Customers mandating quality standards

• ISO/AS and SMS closely related – proactive assessment of hazards and risks

• Align terminology and audit expectations

• Ex – Objectives, Safety Policy



Align civil and military approach to SMS

• Industry uses civil practices, even for military end use projects

• Military have similar, well established approaches

• Align terminology and audit expectations benefits both regulators and industry

• Ex – Flight Safety, inflight emergencies


SMS Scalability – Fundamental Message

While it is important SMS be “vertically” scalable for different sizes and types of aviation/aerospace operations it is also

important SMS by “horizontally” aligned amongst regulatory

jurisdictions, civil/military requirements and quality standards agencies.
