From Reactive to Proactive: Modernize Airport Safety
Airports operate in dynamic, high-risk environments where safety issues—from runway incursions and wildlife hazards to ramp incidents—can escalate quickly. Traditional safety management methods rely heavily on paper-based reporting, delayed hazard escalation, and disconnected work order systems.
The result? Increased compliance risk, missed safety trends, and delayed mitigation.
TADERA’s Safety Management System (SMS) empowers airport safety leaders to take control. Purpose-built for FAR Part 139, FAA AC 150/5200-37A, ICAO Annex 19, and OSHA compliance, it transforms how airports capture, analyze, and resolve safety hazards in real time.

FAQ
What is a Safety Management System (SMS) for airports?
A Safety Management System (SMS) is a structured approach to managing safety risks in airport operations. It includes processes for reporting, assessing, and mitigating safety hazards, and follows international standards like FAA Advisory Circular 150/5200-37A and ICAO Annex 19. SMS promotes a proactive safety culture and risk awareness.
How does TADERA’s SMS module help airports manage safety risks?
TADERA’s SMS module allows airport teams to collect safety reports from staff, contractors, and the public. It enables detailed risk assessments, visual analysis with GIS mapping, and the use of risk matrices to evaluate and mitigate safety hazards before they escalate into incidents. Becuase it is built into OPS1, TADERA's operations and inspection management software, airports can review safety risks and submit work orders to resolve them in one system.
What types of incidents can be reported in the Safety Management System?
Users can report a variety of safety issues, including slip and fall incidents, operational hazards, near misses, safety violations, and inspection findings. These reports are then reviewed and assigned for investigation and risk mitigation using structured workflows.
Is TADERA’s SMS compliant with FAA and ICAO safety guidelines?
Yes. The module follows FAA AC 150/5200-37A and ICAO Annex 19 standards for safety management, making it suitable for certified airports. It ensures a proactive approach to identifying, documenting, and responding to safety risks.
How does TADERA SMS support safety trend analysis?
All reported safety data is stored and visualized in a dashboard. Users can track recurring issues, identify high-risk locations, analyze contributing factors, and generate custom reports. This helps leadership demonstrate a proactive safety culture with data-backed insights.
