IS-BAO Certification Audits
|
AeronomX is IBAC-approved to perform Stage 1, Stage 2, and Stage 3 flight and maintenance operations audits on fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters - business and general aviation in commercial (Part 135, US) and non-commercial (Part 91, US) operations. AeronomX was an early adopter and has been involved with IBAC and the IS-BAO standard since their conception over 20 years ago. Today, we are recognized as one of the top accredited auditing firms in the program, even compared to consulting companies with a much larger staff. We have more to offer by means of experience, not only by volume of audits, but also as having shared your perspective as both a business jet pilot and manager. Our approach to the auditing process is always positive and open minded and not to compromise the uniqueness of your department. Your Operations Manual should work for you - not the other way around. We understand that adopting IS-BAO is voluntary and we want you to succeed.
Walter has been performing aviation safety and quality audits for over 25 years and providing consultation to departments from multinational aircraft manufacturers to single jet corporate operators. IBAC approved for IS-BAO Stage I, II, and III flight and maintenance ops certifications for jet, helicopter, and piston aircraft operations. We average 10 or more audits a year, both domestically in the USA and internationally. We also perform other internationally-recognized safety audit standards by USAIG, Allianz, and Wyvern. |

IS-BAO Gap Analysis Audits
A “pre-audit” that compares the manuals and processes of a flight organization to the IS-BAO Standards. This process reveals any issues of non-compliance prior to an audit seeking IBAC registration. A Gap Analysis is for the operator who is uncertain where they stand, or want to achieve a zero defect audit. AeronomX brings the outside perspective and our auditing experience to perform the analysis onsite or remotely, followed by a review of the findings with the client.
Operational Audits
The progressive operator is the best operator and continually seeks to improve. An Operational Audit is a complete review of an operator’s processes to the latest best practices of the industry or tailored to focus on specific area of concern. The audit is not limited to the confines of a commercial standard but is customized for the desired level of scope and intensity. AeronomX brings outside perspective and safety engineering experience to get to the heart of any issue or help elevate a good flight department to a great one.
Management Services Audits
When placing an aircraft with a management company, we recommend the concept of “trust but verify”. More than just operating industry best practices for safety and quality; do they exceed expectations when complying with the management contract behind the scenes? While large commercial safety standards such as ARGUS and Wyvern address the company from a broad perspective, an AeronomX Management Services Audit specifically addresses your interests and your account.
