Dépèche transmise le 28 septembre 2009 par Business Wire

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dyadem, the leader in Operational and Quality Risk Management, today announced that it has been awarded a contract by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to provide an enterprise-wide software solution to aid in Safety Risk Management activities. Dyadem’s Stature software solution was selected by the FAA’s Air Traffic Organization (ATO) as its Safety Risk Management Tracking System (SRMTS), a key component of its overall Safety Management System (SMS). The Safety Risk Management Tracking System is used to identify, analyze, track and monitor safety risks and changes to the National Aerospace System (NAS), providing the ATO key insight into potential high risks and hazards.

In its Safety Blueprint, released in April 2009, the ATO announced a move to a more sophisticated and risk-based metric for safety performance that would require enhanced event analysis and a link between risk data and correction of casual and contributing factors. With the Safety Blueprint, the ATO has committed in its Continuous Safety Plan to develop and track all safety issues (e.g., risk hazard database), with a yearly commitment to address or fix the top five of those issues.

With more than 7,000 takeoffs and landings per hour, and more than 660 million passengers and 37 billion cargo revenue ton miles of freight a year, the men and women of the ATO safely guide approximately 50,000 aircraft through the National Airspace System (NAS) every day.

Dyadem’s Stature enterprise risk management platform will serve as the basis for the Safety Risk Management Tracking System. Stature will ensure that the ATO has an integrated, collaborative, enterprise-wide solution for safety risk management.

“We are confident that Stature provides the FAA with a world-class solution for safety risk management,” said Kevin North, President and CEO, Dyadem. “Stature’s unique capability to integrate the entire Safety Risk Management process within a single, unified platform will allow the ATO to fulfill a key SMS requirement. Stature ensures that the ATO has not only the best solution now, but also a system that can grow and adapt as the ATO moves toward its NextGen initiative.”

For a group like the ATO who are tasked with the safety of the flying public, effective risk management is a key responsibility. Dyadem’s extensive experience providing risk management solutions to the world’s largest organizations ensures that the ATO has a partner who understands the technology challenges of managing risks on a large scale and whose solutions provide industry leading functionality, flexibility and user-friendliness.

The FAA is part of the Department of Transportation and is responsible for the safety of civil aviation. More information about the FAA can be found online at www.faa.gov.
