Cebu Pacific is the first airline in the Asia Pacific region to use an Airbus-developed automated system for reporting, monitoring and analyzing safety data.
 
 
 
Called the Safety Assessment and Management System, its software was installed at Cebu Pacific and went live June this year. 
 
Airbus safety management experts also conducted SAMS’s initial training for Cebu Pacific flight personnel.
 
“Launching SAMS as an integral part of our operations marks our commitment to achieve the highest standards of safety in everything we do," Candice Iyog, vice president for marketing and distribution, said in a statement. 
 
"Our relationship with Airbus spans over 15 years and now extends beyond aircraft design, operations and maintenance. This takes our airline safety system to a new level, and we are proud to have been chosen to be Airbus’ second customer in the world and the launch customer in Asia-Pacific,” Iyog said.
 
Airbus developed SAMS to integrate flight monitoring into one of the world’s most state-of-the-art safety tool. SAMS combines the latest risk assessment methodology and best practices for automated reporting, processing, measurement and analysis for airline operators.
 
The system has been recognized by the global aviation industry and has become an International Civil Aviation Organization standard for all air operators from January 2009.
 
CEB currently operates 10 Airbus A319, 20 Airbus A320 and eight ATR-72 500 aircraft. — VS, GMA News
