IOSA Audit Organization
Acceptance within the aviation community of IATA Operational Safety Audits (IOSA) depends on credibility of the IOSA program. As an IATA accredited Audit Organization (AO) , mba meets the rigorous standardization and quality standards demanded by IATA to audit air operator certificate (AOC) holders for safety and quality conformity.
In 2009 mba completed the certification process for establishing itself as an Endorsed Training Organization (ETO) accredited by IATA. As an accredited ETO, mba will deliver instruction to both IOSA and ISAGO auditors.
IOSA Program Concept & Goal:
IOSA
IATA Operational Safety Audit
Evaluation system utilized to assess the operational management and control systems of an air operator in order to help improve operations and reduce the number of industry audits. |
ISAGO
IATA Safety Audit for Ground Operations
Modeled after the successful IOSA program, the ISAGO audit system aims to improve safety and cut airline costs by significantly reducing ground accidents and injury. |
Both of the programs use internationally recognized quality auditing principles (ISO 9001) to create standardized audits that are accepted by code share partners, regulatory authorities and others with a financial interest in the operational safety practices of an AOC. The universal acceptance of the IOSA program as an industry standard greatly reduces the number of audits necessary, resulting in significant reduction of management time and resources by the AOC, and now for ground handling companies. |
