Air Charter Safety Foundation and Baldwin Aviation Team Up on ASAP

Washington D.C.-based Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) has come to an agreement in principle with Baldwin Aviation Safety & Compliance (Booth 2639) to offer a sophisticated single-point of access digital Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP) to ACSF members in the near future. Currently, ACSF members who have a memorandum of understanding with FAA/ACSF to be ASAP participants use a web-based application tool available via secure login from the ACSF website. ACSF promotes and facilitates aviation risk management programs and disseminates safety information to the business aviation charter community.

“The goal is to provide end users with one-stop shopping by combining Baldwin Aviation’s overall safety management system with an ACSF-ASAP program that results in reduced operational risk and redundant workload often associated with multiple databases,” ACSF president Bryan Burns said this week at NBAA 2016. “Both organizations believe that bringing this program to the marketplace as a single data source is a win-win for the charter and business aviation community.”

Baldwin Aviation president Don Baldwin agreed with Burns. “This represents a significant decrease in both time and cost for each participating charter and business aviation operator without compromising their respective data and reports,” he said. It is known that rapid error reporting and the quick processing of those reports results in improved system safety within aviation.

Baldwin Aviation offers business aviation operators customizable and scalable safety management systems and related business programs to the fixed-wing and rotor-wing communities, MROs, airports and FBOs.
