Aviation activities are growing almost exponentially year on year, this is acting as a driver to support the development of proactive Safety Management Systems, both ICAO and EASA have identified the requirement for the effective implementation of an Airport wide Safety Management System (SMS for Airports).
The use of SMS within the airport environment can contribute by enabling airports to detect exposure and to develop mitigations which can correct safety problems before they result in negative consequences for example aircraft accidents or incidents.
The airport is a busy and dynamic environment with many stakeholders required to integrate into a unified SMS process.
