Company Profile
Flight Safety Pty Ltd, a specialist aviation external audit, risk assessment and risk management company, conducts aviation external audits from an holistic and safety orientated perspective. ISO 9001:2000 quality management auditing techniques form the basis of the audit approach. Compliance is not the main focus, although compliance is included in the audit process. An analysis is made of the following; legal structure, organisation, management, operations, document control, quality and safety management, emergency response procedures, regulatory exemptions, previous non-compliances or legal action pending, maintenance organisational structure and controls, inspection of the Hangar facilities and an inspection of the aircraft (including equipment fit). A five year accident/incident history investigation is undertaken with a cross-check against the regulator accident investigation site. A proving flight is undertaken when possible with an assessment of crew cockpit management procedures.

Audit Methodology
Flight Safety applies typical ISO 9001:2000 auditing techniques, such as opening meeting, only auditing with auditee key personnel present, closing meeting with mutual agreement on non-compliances based on objective evidence. Checklists are used as an aide-mémoire during the audit. This methodical process is recorded in a comprehensive final report that includes digital photographic records of all relevant aspects of the audit. Post audit guidance is offered as to the most appropriate corrective and preventative action.
Over 350 audits have been carried out on rotary and fixed wing operations in charter, airline/regional airline, helicopter offshore operations including Helideck inspections, geophysical survey, emergency medical service, marine pilot transfer, and these involve the full spectrum of air operations, ground operations including security etc.
Risk Assessment
Flight Safety uses qualitative and quantitative risk assessment techniques developed specifically for all types of aviation activities as described.
Risk Management
Flight Safety integrates risk management into quality management control structures.
Audit Reporting
Flight Safety has introduced a new audit reporting technique whereby an Air Operating Company is audited accorded to a grading system, allowing the results to be graphed - providing a one page executive summary of the organisation broken down into departmental results. The detail of the audit can then be followed back into the report if required.
The significance of this is enormous, as it means there is a tangible aspect that can be measured and compared. This standardised model applied nationally, internationally or within a civilian or military regime produces uniform results, allowing for accurate graded indexing. Indexed safety can benefit the Regulatory Authority, or by virtue of an announced ‘grading’, create competitive reaction that fosters continual improvement.
Flight Safety specialises in incident/accident systems analyses where organisational systems and procedures are examined to identify causal failures, once this has been completed it is then possible to apply corrective/preventative actions.
