Transport Canada Bird/Wildlife Report in Safety Management Systems (SMS) Software

ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Aug. 9, 2013 - PRLog -- Airlines and airports around the world have been implementing aviation safety management systems (SMS) since 2006 to comply with an ICAO mandate. One aspect of formal SMS programs is hazard reporting. Several world class Web based software programs have sprung up since 2006 to satisify regulatory requirements. SMS Pro is one of the most popular aviation SMS software programs. See http://www.asms-pro.com for details.

Hazard reporting includes accidents, incidents and irregularities, including bird strikes. Bird strike reporting forms are not consistent in the aviation industry. For example, SMS Pro has had the FAA Bird Strike Report and a UAE Bird Strike Reporting Form for several years. The FAA Bird Strike Reporting Form is a default, predefined report.

SMS Pro now includes the Transport Canada Bird/Wildlife Reporting Form as a default reporting form. Since the Canadians are among the leaders in implementing formal aviation SMS programs, they represent an appreciable customer base for SMS Pro. For quick pricing info, see http://www.aviation-sms.com.

Transport Canada Bird/Wildlife Reporting Form is available in English and French, the two national languages.

Airlines and airports operating in Canada will benefit from using the configurable bird/wildlife reporting form. Besides using the Web based reporting form to submit issues into a company's SMS database, SMS Pro's TC Bird/Wildlife Reporting Form can be used to optionally submit reports directly to Transport Canada.
