SMS Gap Analysis (SMSGA): An initial Gap Analysis (GA) is essential to the SMS process. A properly conducted GA is the most effective means to determine existing SMS elements and subsequently, identify those that may be required. Transport Canada (TC) has defined the GA procedure as a requirement in the SMS application and documentation process. QualaTech Aero Consulting Ltd. will accurately assess your specific situation.
Safety Management Systems Manual (SMSM): The SMSM is vital to the SMS. QualaTech not only designs SMSMs that complement TC 6 Part Protocol but more specifically, will design a system to suit the individual (AMO and/or Air Operator), encompassing the specific operational requirements for SMS.
Safety Assurance Process (Hazard ID & Risk Assessment): TC requires that a Certificate Holder include safety assurance as a component of a SMS, specifically, a process employing the CSA Risk Management system. QualaTech can establish a pragmatic Safety Case, meeting the requirements of TC and more importantly the requirements of the client.
SMS Training: The purpose of a SMS training course is to provide the client with a concentrated overview of SMS. The course focuses on SMS principles, requirements and practices and also introduces practical procedures for implementation, dealing with documentation and policy. SMS training is a TC requirement, whether provided in-house or by an external agency.
Human Factors Awareness Training: The primary purpose for HFAT is to identify and understand the relationship of Human Factors [the scientific study of the interaction between people and machine] within the work environment. Additionally, HFAT provides a correlation between HF and a SMS, focusing on human error, effect, avoidance and subsequent consequence. The course introduces HF philosophy, enabling the participant to appreciate that Error and Loss are both highly preventable and within his/her own personal power to control; thereby helping to reduce the world’s annual ten billion dollar insurable loss rate. HFAT is a TC requirement whether provided in-house or by an external agency.
