IOSA is being developed as part of the
IATA Safety Strategy 2000+
Applicable Strategy elements:• Co-ordinate and integrate IATA resources
with industry
• Promote IATA Standards on practices and equipment which improve safety
• Reinforce the role of the airline CEO for safety accountability

The Auditing Problem:• Today’s “audit frenzy”• Redundant, overlapping audits• No common standards• No defined auditor qualifications• Uneven results • No sharing & recognition of audits• Inefficient use of resources

IOSA Project Goal:

Perceived Concerns:• IOSA will be an added audit that will be
imposed upon airlines• IOSA will infringe upon regulatory oversight
by the State• The “Safety Bar” will be too high• The “Safety Bar” will be too low• The program quality of IOSA will not be
maintained

Operational Standards:• IOSA Standards & Recommended Practices
(ISARPs) incorporate all ATA Standards, additional requirements from other States and airline Alliance programs
• The “Safety Bar” will approximate to acceptable levels that exist today
• A well managed airline will be able to meet the IOSA Standards

Responses:• IOSA will not add to, but will reduce the
number of audits• IOSA can be applied to all airlines, but will
not be imposed• IOSA is an operational audit standard, and
is not regulatory• IOSA will have no affect on State regulatory
oversight, however...
