ARGUS International has launched AOA:91000, a best practices assessment for private operators. This assessment was designed based on a deficit in the industry.

“Our customers operating privately asked ARGUS for a safety assessment that fits their exact needs for domestic and international operations. The ARGUS Pros team built AOA:91000 specifically to meet the evaluation needs of our customers, making sure it is scalable fitting all operator sizes,” says senior vice president Mike McCready.

ARGUS International is committed to maximising safety practices in business aviation, and the ARGUS Operator Assessment (AOA) is ARGUS International's dedication to operational safety. “To bring increased safety to the aviation industry is our mission at ARGUS, and to do it in step with our customers makes for a wonderful safety solution for our clients,” McCready continues.

AOA:91000 uses the ARGUS Standard to evaluate private operations. This evaluation is customised by an ARGUS Pros consultant to fit each flight department's unique operation. Scheduling, safety management, flight operations and aircraft maintenance are examples of components assessed to ensure operational safety, effectiveness and efficiency.
