The idea of Aviodata

In 2010 forces were joined with the aim of the development of an online platform for the implementation and maintenance of the Safety Management System for safety-critica companies and more specifically for the aviation industry. With over two decades of experience in the management of safety and quality, we were somewhat disappointed to observe very old-fashioned means of administration. Motivated by this disappointment we did a study on time spent with administrating safety and quality matters. We found that it involved around 25% of the time for a quality manager an around 29% of the time for the safety manager. On top of this, the control of airline documentation was such that more than 50% of the time was absorbed by pure administrative processes. Those processes also have a high risk of failing since they often rely on a single person, rather than on a well-defined and monitored process.
