AviationManuals release aids risk assessment
ARC safety management software now features a metrics module that makes it easy for operators to spot trends, analyse risks and alter operational procedures. Launched online it will also be added to the iPad app.

AviationManuals has released its new metrics module for the ARC SMS platform. The new module makes it easy for operators to analyse information they are collecting, helping to identify potential risks and if necessary make changes to operational procedures. Operators can see both high level and detailed data via the various metrics dashboards providing them with information about overall trends.

CEO Mark Baier explains: “With the industry embracing safety performance indicators, operators need an effective tool to help analyse metrics. This module provides ARC subscribers with live data, so they can quickly assess their activity and potentially make changes to future operations. Maintenance directors, schedulers and dispatchers, as well as department managers, can all benefit from this tool.”

It offers real-time information based on data entered into the system. It can be tailored to each operator at the level of date ranges and risk factors. Clients can drill down into the metrics to look at the individual items that make up the results, and its risk assessments cover items such as fatigue, top selected factors and average scores.
