NEW YORK, Oct. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Baltia Air Lines, a JFK-based new American airline currently undergoing Air Carrier Certification, announced today that it has been accepted into the FAA's Safety Management Systems (SMS) Pilot Program.
The company's President, Igor Dmitrowsky, stated: "Senior Management at Baltia is committed to pursuing the safest operational environment possible. We are committed to implementing, developing and improving strategies, management systems and processes to ensure that all operational activities uphold the highest level of safety performance in the industry. Our Safety Management System will meet and exceed national and international standards."
SMS is essentially a quality management approach to controlling and managing risk. It also provides the organizational framework to support a sound safety culture. The SMS will provide Baltia management with a detailed roadmap for monitoring safety-related processes.
The transition to a Safety Management System provides a new way of approaching the business. SMS will permeate all facets and departments of the organization. Development and implementation of an SMS will give Baltia Air Lines a structured set of tools to meet regulatory responsibilities but they can also provide significant business benefits. SMS incorporates internal evaluations and quality assurance concepts that results in a more structured management and continuous improvement of operational processes.
