Sino scores second consecutive IS-BAO Stage III
Since its founding in 2011, Sino Jet has consistently placed safety at the heart of its growth strategy. In 2013, the company embarked on the journey to develop an SMS and it has been recognised by IBAC ever since.

Chinese business jet operator Sino Jet has secured IS-BAO Stage III certification for the second consecutive year, a testament to its adherence to the highest international benchmarks for safety. Moreover, Sino Jet has received 10-year long-term safe operation certification.

Since 2018, Sino Jet has performed well in mainland China, being the first company to attain this highest level of certification. It was successfully renewed in 2021. The IS-BAO (International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations), crafted by the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC), serves as a specialised accreditation that assesses the safety management and control systems of business aviation companies. It stands as the gold standard for operational safety and professionalism within the global business aviation sector.

There are three levels of IS-BAO certification, with Stage III certification lasting for a span of three years. Before the expiry of this term, entities can undergo a fresh three-year re-certification or an annual assessment. Sino Jet, having successfully undergone two three-year re-certifications since its initial attainment of IS-BAO Stage III certification, has showcased its steadfast dedication to the creation and enhancement of a sustainable safety management system, alongside its remarkable accomplishments in this domain.

Since its founding in 2011, Sino Jet has consistently placed safety at the heart of its growth strategy. In 2013, the company embarked on the journey to develop a safety management system (SMS), fully aligning with globally recognised high-level safety operation standards by 2014. This commitment has seen Sino Jet weave a safety-centric ethos into the fabric of its corporate culture, ensuring that safety management is the linchpin of its business jet operations. Through the creation and enforcement of rigorous safety policies, the company has cultivated a collective mindset and operational behaviour among its staff that prioritises safety in every facet of their work.

By harnessing the power of its comprehensive digital process system, Sino Jet is progressively moving towards a smarter future, having established the ‘Digital Smart Sino Jet’ operations control centre. This state-of-the-art facility offers a holistic view of the fleet's real-time operational status, optimising resource allocation and management, which in turn elevates safety operation standards and operational efficiency.

The company is dedicated to offering clients superior and safer aircraft asset lifecycle management services. Empowered by the robust surge of digital transformation, Sino Jet says it will harness digital intelligence technology as its driving force.
