The overarching objective for this research project is to develop a model for determining SMS effectiveness in an aviation/aerospace organization. Specific tasks are:Design a model scalable to the size of the organization. In other words, it will be adaptable for use for major airlines and small, commuter operations,Evaluate the model for validity and reliability,Incorporate a tool for determination as to whether an organization has the necessary components in place and operational for SMS,Provide a scoring matrix by which the level of effectiveness can be set and compared to other aerospace/aviation organizations.
