Designation Based On SMS Development And Risk Assessment
ExecuJet's South African operation has achieved the
International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO)
certification as of September 2011. The International Business
Aviation Council (IBAC) has congratulated ExecuJet for this
significant accomplishment.
The foundation of IS-BAO is the development of a safety
management system to assess the risks encountered in flight
operations. It is modelled on the ISO 9000 family of standards.
Validation of the entire process has to be completed by an
independent audit. ExecuJet’s flight department and
management invested considerable time and effort to develop and
implement this world-class business aviation code of practice. In
achieving this milestone, ExecuJet Africa has joined the list of
proactive flight departments around the world that have implemented
IS-BAO to manage the safety, security and efficiency of their
operations.
“Being IS-BAO registered is the ultimate expression of the
safety culture we have at ExecuJet” says Karen Piek, Quality
Assurance Manager - ExecuJet Africa “everyone is aware of
their individual role in achieving and ensuring a safe working
environment for us and our clients. The IS-BAO registration has
been a benchmark for us and we are very proud that we have managed
to reach it”. In addition to IS-BAO, ExecuJet Africa is also
accredited by Flight Safety Foundation BARS Approval (Basic
Aviation Risk Standard) as well as several other leading companies
throughout the world.
ExecuJet is also IS-BAO certified in Europe and in the Middle
East.
