Discussion
The link between SSP and CMA
Conclusion
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

3. Introduction SSP and CMA are two separate yet interrelated activities
Both are based on the use of safety risk management (SRM) and safety assurance (SA) principles
SSP – set of regulations and activities for the management of safety by a State
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

4. Introduction CMA provides a continuous safety assessment process
SSP – a management system implemented by States
CMA – implemented and managed by ICAO
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

5. Discussion
USOAP objective – promote global aviation safety through auditing member States
SSP objective – to effectively manage safety through the surveillance of aviation system
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

6. Discussion
SSP complements prescriptive regulatory system with process and procedures which systematically identify deficiencies, assess safety risks and implement mitigation strategies
CMA allows ICAO to assess how well a State performs its safety oversight function
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

7. The link between SSP and CMA
Analysis of data used to measure a State safety oversight capabilities
Effective implementation of eight critical elements of safety oversight
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

8. The link between SSP and CMA
Under SSP, States continuously assess the level of safety and monitor safety metrics to detect deficiencies
Under CMA, ICAO (USOAP) will broaden compliance audits to incorporate a safety risk approach by receiving data from variety of sources
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

9. The link between SSP and CMA
SSP will generate increasing amounts of safety data
Integrated analysis of safety data by CMA and SSP is essential in identifying factors having potential to affect safety
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

10. The link between SSP and CMA
CMA will use the data acquired by SSP to effectively focus its activity in response to safety issues and detected deficiencies
Analysis of CMA data will support the SSP safety assurance
SSP and CMA link will be strengthened through the use of integrated data resources
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

11. The link between SSP and CMA
Commonalities of SSP and CMA:
Basic safety management principles – SRM and SA
Safety data-based decision making
Use of safety regulations, integrating safety risk and administrative control
Compliance-based and performance based oversight
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

12. The link between SSP and CMA
Commonalities of SSP and CMA:
Safety assurance – based oversight and mitigation strategies
CMA provides ICAO with a State safety oversight assessment and SSP provides assurance to States regarding safety management capabilities of their service providers
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

13. Conclusion
Effective implementation of SSP by States is based upon safety management principles and cannot be successful unless safety data is available to support SRM and SA
Safety data is needed for the development of regulations as safety risk controls
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

14. Conclusion
As both CMA and SSP evolve over time, the flow of safety data generated by SSP will be increased
The integrated analysis of data generated by SSP and CMA will strengthen the SSP/CMA link and will bring significant benefits in the conduct of safety oversight
ICAO EUR HLSC Preparatory Seminar

15. Conclusion The Conference will be invited: Note the discussion
Note the link between SSP and CMA
Agree that the effective implementation of SSP and efficiencies gained in CMA cannot be achieved unless larger-scale data acquisition, analysis and exchange be developed by States and ICAO
Encourage internal action by States with the ICAO support to ensure the development of the above capabilities
