What Is Predictive Risk Management?
In aviation safety management systems (SMS), risk management professionals toss around three common terms:
- reactive risk management;
- proactive risk management; and
- predictive risk management.
In aviation safety management systems (SMS), risk management professionals toss around three common terms:

The process of aviation safety management systems (SMS), simply put, is the conglomeration of many small actions on the part of safety management teams, operational managers and employees.

When we think of safety management systems (SMS), it’s easy to think of big operations such as major airlines and large international airports.
General aviation pilots and smaller aviation service providers need their own safety management systems as well,

Pilots have to be committed to safety.
At the end of the day, safety is the most important thing in aviation.

Ultimately, managing safety is about managing risk – a core value that can easily be overshadowed in large aviation safety management systems' (SMS) implementations.
