Baldwin Safety & Compliance has now incorporated the NASA Aviation Safety Report System (ASRS) within its own safety reporting module, allowing its customers to complete one report in the portal and also submit it to the NASA ASRS.

Director of safety Jason Starke says: “We are always striving to streamline our safety information processes, therefore integrating NASA ASRS reporting capability into our reporting function is a great example. I believe it will encourage more submissions because of the convenience, and ultimately improve safety by sharing vital information with the aviation community. Plans are also underway to build an ASRS UAS form for drone operators to submit to NASA as well.”

The ASRS database is a public repository which serves the FAA and NASA's needs as well as those of other organisations worldwide that are engaged in research and the promotion of safe flight. The ASRS collects, analyses and responds to voluntarily submitted aviation safety event reports to improve safety in the national airspace system.
