What we offer

SMSWORX helps businesses identify and manage safety risk through the provision of safety advisory and assurance services including:

Practical support with implementation and certification processes for SMS

For new organisations, this starts with helping you create a workable implementation plan. If you already have a plan, but there are some areas that are proving challenging, we can work together with your managers and staff to develop practical processes that suit your organisation. Putting them into practice before the CAA certification visit, will mean that everyone is familiar with the system and you can demonstrate that it is suitable for your scale of operation.

Bespoke training and coaching for SMS activities

Basic SMS training is a good starting point for everyone, but there will be particular roles that could benefit from some extra help - how to identify hazards and assess the risks; how to develop an effective safety audit programme; how do we measure our safety performance? We can provide face to face training, regular coaching or remote support to suit your needs.

Risk assessment workshops at an operational level - including management of change

Let’s find out what your people think might harm your organisation, or what could go wrong as you navigate through introduction of new equipment, or other significant changes to your organisation.

Practical use of the bowtie barrier risk methodology for complex risk assessment

How to break down the risk and risk controls into a highly visual form that let’s everyone see how you are managing the risk, and what part they play.

Independent aviation safety audit (CAA New Zealand and EASA rules)

Your safety audit programme looks at your systems, but who is checking the checker? We provide an independent audit service from individual audits on your operation or that of third party providers, through to an independent audit of your safety management system

Business SMS maturity assessment and recommendations

Using industry best practice tools, we can review your management system to provide you with an assessment of SMS maturity to give you confidence in what is working well, and opportunities to improve in the future.

Preparation of Senior Persons for a CAA interview

Provision of bespoke coaching (including mock interviews) so that your nominated Senior Person has the best opportunity to demonstrate that they have the necessary leadership skills, knowledge and experience to fulfil the role.
