YARDLEY, Pa., 5 Nov. 2013. Wyvern Consulting Ltd., a provider of air charter risk assessment and management products and services, has partnered with Aviation Safety and Quality Solutions (ASQS) to offer the iQSMS Web-based short message service (SMS) program to customers in North and South America.

The Integrated Quality and Safety Management System (iQSMS) Web-based safety, quality, and risk management system offers seven different modules, which may be combined or used independently. ICAO- and FAA-compliant, the individual modules include Quality Management, Reporting, FDM/FOQA Risk, Ground OPS, Flight/Airport Risk, Risk Management, and Document Management. iQSMS is available in English, German, Russian, and Spanish, with additional language capabilities to follow. iQSMS is also optimized for mobile tablet devices, including Apple iPads.

“The implementation of FAR Part 5 is expected in 2014. Wyvern wants to help its customers promote a positive safety culture through SMS implementation and become compliant in advance of any future deadlines. In partnership with ASQS, we can help put our customers on a path to compliance with an affordable, web-based SMS platform,” says Wyvern Managing Director Art Dawley.

“We have been helping customers in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia comply with SMS regulations for the past several years,” says ASQS Managing Director Günther Schindl. “Organizational acceptance of SMS is critical to its successful implementation. We have found that employee buy-in is high because the program is easy to learn and user friendly.”
