AAR, a leading provider of aviation services to commercial and government operators, MROs, and OEMs, has received official recognition from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for its corporate Safety Management System (SMS) programme, making it the first independent third-party MRO organisation to implement this system.
The corporate SMS programme provides a platform for all employees to proactively identify and report hazards, perform risk analysis and mitigation, and share best practices. Implementing this system ensures that AAR’s operations maintain their position on the cutting-edge of aviation safety. This advancement is the most recent example of AAR’s well-established commitment to pursuing “Quality First. Safety Always.” and is supported by senior leadership across the organisation.
