Scandinavian Avionics, an internationally renowned provider of avionics solutions, has implemented the iQSMS Reporting Module to ensure compliance with the new EASA requirements. Not just in their Part-145 and Part-21 departments as required. But throughout the entire organization.

iQSMS. A web-based, integrated aviation Quality and Safety Management software developed by ASQS. The system helps optimize reporting processes within organizations.

Scandinavian Avionics (SA) is one of those organizations. The international provider of avionics, electronics, training, and interior solutions for the civil and military aviation industry has adopted the iQSMS Reporting Module to anchor safety across SA and rest of The SA Group, including Part-145, Part-21, and Part-147.

A Just Culture

EASA Part-145.A.202 mandates that maintenance organizations implement a safety reporting scheme in terms of identification of hazards and safety risk management. iQSMS supports the entire reporting process by offering flexibility through its online and offline capabilities.

The system enables SA to customize reporting forms and report anonymously. This helps to ensure a just culture which breaks down barriers and empowers both administrative personnel and technical staff to share vital safety information. Easily and without reservation.

It Takes a Village

iQSMS ensures compliance with EASA regulations, thus enabling SA to effectively capture safety-related data and proactively identify, assess, and mitigate risks.

However, this is only possible if the entire organization is on board.

“We have made the decision to implement SMS in our entire Group. From our perspective, safety management is not just an EASA requirement. Safety is a mindset which should resonate with all employees. Only then can we ensure a just culture where everyone is dedicated to reporting hazards, risks, and procedures which may affect safety in our organization,” says Michael R. Truelsen, CEO at Scandinavian Avionics.

The reporting system supports a sound reporting and safety culture throughout all departments across The SA Group and promotes continuous improvements by enabling staff and personnel to become ambassadors of safety.

The collaboration between Scandinavian Avionics and iQSMS further emphasizes the importance of prioritizing safety and employing advanced technologies to improve safety management throughout the entire organization.
