Airport SMS: From FAA Pilot Program to Implementation

Baltimore, MD
October 30 - October 31, 2008

The American Association of Airport Executives, The MITRE Corporation and Airports Council InternationalNorth America, in collaboration with the Federal Aviation Administration are pleased to present the conference, Airport SMS: From FAA Pilot Program to Implementation to be held October 30-31, 2008 in Baltimore, Maryland.

In November 2006, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) amended Annex 14, Volume I (Airport Design and Operations) to require member States to have certificated international airports establish a Safety Management System (SMS). In February 2007, the FAA released Advisory Circular 150/5200-37 which begins the process of introducing SMS into the U.S. airport community. The FAA intends to propose new rules to Part 139 in 2009. Over the past year, pilot programs funded by the FAA have been testing the SMS Concept at various airports. The results of the pilot program will be released at the conference.

What is SMS? SMS is a systematic, proactive and well-defined safety program, allowing an organization to incorporate safety and productivity, to fully understand and mitigate the safety risks of actions and activities at the airport. It is essentially a tool for all users of the aviation system to be aware of the risk and to be actively engaged in minimizing the risk while flying. The key to any successful SMS program is that it is data driven, and relies on a non-punitive system of self-reporting.

This conference brings the leadership of the FAA to explain the goals and objectives for SMS at U.S. airports. The conference will also incorporate other aviation sectors that are already moving forward with SMS, such as air traffic and air carriers, in order to learn from their experiences.

Finally, the conference will give participants the unique opportunity to hear first-hand from pilot airports what challenges, successes and findings they have achieved.

Safety Management Systems Symposium

The Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner; McLean, Virginia USA
July 19 - July 21, 2005

A Comprehensive Symposium on All Aspects of SMS---In response, the MITRE Corporation¿s Center for Advanced Aviation System Development (CAASD) has put together a comprehensive symposium to present all of these newly mandated SMS requirements in an integrated manner.

In one, convenient symposium, senior executives will be able to get a thorough grounding in all areas of SMS procedures ¿ from the perspective of airlines, ATS providers, airport operators and CAA oversight organizations. Human and Organizational Factors will also be discussed. What¿s more, attendees will learn how to improve their safety programs in the quickest, most effective and cost-efficient way.

Taught by the Leaders in Aviation Systems Design -- This symposium has been tailor-made for top executives concerned with safety issues. It offers the knowledge and expertise of leading experts in aviation and SMS, as well as the resources of the MITRE Aviation Institute (MAI). MAI provides professional training and education for CAASD¿s seminars, workshops and conferences.

New Rules, Increased Safety and Greater Efficiency --Already mandated by the FAA and adopted by Canada, the UK, Australia and Switzerland, as well as Air Traffic Services worldwide, SMS has now been mandated by the ICAO, which is calling for all international airports to comply by November 2005. Airlines are also strongly encouraged to adopt the SMS approach to safety.

This symposium focuses on SMS requirements defined in ICAO Annexes 1 (Personnel Licensing), 6 (Aircraft Operations), 8 (Airworthiness), 10 (Aeronautical Telecommunications), 11 (Air Traffic Services), 13 (Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigation), 14 (Aerodromes), and 15 (Aeronautical Information Systems).

Supported by the Assistant Director of Central Intelligence for Analysis and Production, this first international conference aims to report fundamental, novel, and operationally significant advances in the art of intelligence analysis and the associated science and technology support from national, military, academic and competitive intelligence communities. Analytic communities are continually challenged by the need to analyze massive volumes, velocities, and varieties of multilingual and multimedia data. This situation occurs in multiple disciplines including HUMINT, SIGINT, IMINT, MASINT, OSINT, and GEOINT. This occurs in multiple domains including but not limited to terrorism, politics, economics, chemical, nuclear, and biological weapons of mass destruction, information assurance, science and technology, and industry analysis. Challenges have fueled opportunities for analytic tool developers, educators, and business process owners that support analytic communities in the management of knowledge, information and data sources. Substantial government, commercial and academic R&D activities require a forum for knowledge sharing about intelligence analysis theories, methodologies and tools.

This meeting will include high quality, peer reviewed papers, panels, posters and demonstrations

May 31 - June 1, 2000

To discuss the direction and content of present research, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) invited members of the aviation and weather forecasting communities to a workshop hosted by CAASD at their headquarters in McLean, VA.

The purpose of the workshop was to identify decision support severe weather deficiencies and requirements, and to begin developing a coordinated plan to provide NAS users with all-weather decision support. The workshop focussed mainly on severe convective weather for decision support applications. However, participants were encouraged to consider other types of weather that may result in restrictions to traffic flow. Examples may include: icing, turbulence, wind shear, gust fronts, and ceiling and visibility.

Decision support tools now emerging as prototypes in the NAS and which will be positively affected by better weather forecasts and forecasting techniques include:

  • ETMS (Enhanced Traffic Management System)
  • CRCT (Collaborative Routing Coordination Tool)
  • URET (User Request Evaluation Tool)
  • PARR (Problem Analysis, Resolution, and Ranking)
  • CTAS (Center-TRACON Automation System)
    • TMA (Traffic Management Advisor)
    • PFAST (Passive Final Approach Spacing Tool)
    • E/DA (En Route Descent Advisor)
