  1. Airports Safety Management System Integrating Planning Into the Process

  2. SMS is a quality process that provides feedback for continuous improvement Safety Management System– SMS • A process for achieving acceptable levels of safety risk* • Elements • Policy • Commitment • Boundaries • Safety Risk Management • Analyze Risk • Control Risks (mitigate) • Accept Risks • System Changes • Assurance • System performance • Hazard identification • Promotion • Communication, outreach, culture and human resources * FAA Order 8000.369, Safety Management System Guidance

  3. Describe the System Mission Human Machine Management Media or Environment Identify Hazards What can go wrong Causes System State Effect Analyze Risks Existing controls Severity Likelihood Assess Risks Single point failure Common cause failure Risk acceptability– high, medium, or low Treat Risks– Mitigation Avoidance Transfer Assumption Control Implementation and monitoring Safety Risk Management– SRM Infrastructure

  4. Airport Planning • Existing Conditions Inventory • Aviation Forecasts • Facility Requirements • Alternatives Development and Evaluation • Airport Layout Plan • Project Selection and Implementation • Project sequencing and master schedule • Environmental review • Financing • (Safety assessment and acceptance)  Airport Planning SRM A Process For Satisfying Long-term Aeronautical Demand

  5. Airport Planning SRM Context Airport Process (SMS) FAA ARP SMS (TBD) Airport Planning SRM FAA ATO SMS

  6. System Infrastructure and Operations • Infrastructure and Operations • Infrastructure can (almost always) be operated in a safe manner • Therefore, system operations ultimately determine system safety. • SMS balances operational production and safety • Therefore, airport infrastructure must provide for a safe operation that meets aeronautical demands • Airport production can be measured in terms of system capacity, efficiency and utility • Infrastructure • Provided by the Airport, ATO Tech Ops • Approved and funded by ARP • Operations– Provided by… • Flight Operations: Air Traffic (ATO), Flight Standards, etc • Airport Operations: Airport • Aircraft Operations: Pilot  Airport Planning

  7. -Infrastructure -Operations Planning Process Decisions Decision Level Time Line Planning… Construction… New operations begin

  8. Complete SRM Start SRM* Planning Process and SRM Plan Design Construct *Planning Safety Assessment) Operate

  9. Planning Safety Assessment • Develop Alternatives • Preliminary Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment • Modification of Standards • Identify Potential Limitations • Aircraft • Taxiways • Runways • Procedures • Capacity • Establish Efficiency, Capacity and Utility Targets

  10. SRM in Planning

  11. SRM in Environmental

  12. SRM in Design and Construction

  13. Concurrent Planning… • Begin with the end in mind– operational benefits for the aviation system • Initial planning must include safety as well as other considerations • Assemble a complete complement of stakeholders, including operations safety • Capture and apply critical safety decisions to each subsequent phase of the airport planning and development process SRM Benchmarks for Airport Planning

  14. What– Incorporate SRM into the airport planning and development process Master Planning and ALP Approval Environmental Review Modification of Standards Construction Safety Phasing How– Test various SRM approaches to the planning/development process ATO SRM Airport SRM ARP Contractor SRM Passive Case studies Implementation Studies • FAA Team Effort • Interview Participants • Identify Lessons Learned and Best Practices • Apply to SRM Guidance

  15. SRM Approaches • ATO SRMSRM panel facilitated by ATO. Expand the current ATO role and require more involvement from ARP to address the entire airfield, including proposed development and the associated airspace. • Airport SRMAirport sponsor hires a safety consultant to perform a safety assessment. Readily funded by the Airport Improvement Program (AIP). Airport sponsor has direct control over airport safety operations during and after construction. • ARP Contractor SRMSRM panel facilitated by the ARP SMS support contractor. Can effectively leverage the outcomes for ARP guidance. • PassivePassive participation in the planning process. Observe and propose how a new SRM process could be incorporated into existing planning process steps. Minimal impact on the existing planning process. • Case studiesReview outcomes and interview participants of completed ATO SRM processes

  16. Thanks for Your Time… Now… Lets get out there and learn how to apply SRM to airport planning!!!
