An Integrated Approach to Air Safety: Integrated Airline Management for the Airline Industry
Airlines face numerous compliance challenges, including complying with regulations and initiatives set forth by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), and regulatory bodies. In addition to demonstrating safety compliance to IATA and regulatory bodies, airline firms must also demonstrate their achievement in safety standards to other members of IATA. The IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) program is designed for the purpose of assessing the operational management and control of systems within airlines.
With all of the compliance pressures occurring within the airline industry, whether it is safety; environmental; quality; or financial, there has become an urgent need for an Integrated Airline Management System (IAMS). An effective IAMS would be a seamless integrated system that is easy to use and would effectively manage airline compliance.
This paper will describe the Integrated Airline Management System, how implementation of an IAMS can improve operations, safety, security and quality, and what best practices are being implemented globally for IAMS.
