ARGUS recognizes the importance of one single standard for aircraft operators around the globe, and has incorporated all the requirements of IS-BAO into the ARGUS Platinum Standard.
ARGUS PROS (a wholly owned subsidiary of ARGUS International, Inc) is the only auditing organization that can conduct an IS-BAO audit in conjunction with an ARGUS Platinum Audit. The Platinum Rating is ARGUS’ highest level of safety ratings, and is awarded only to those air charter operators who have demonstrated successful implementation of industry best safety practices relative to their operations and maintenance. With the inclusion of IS-BAO audit criteria in the ARGUS audit standard, operators can achieve IS-BAO Registration and the ARGUS Platinum Rating concurrently. This not only streamlines the process, but is more cost effective for all involved.
"As a proud member of the aviation industry, safety has always been the top priority for Charter First. In an effort to validate that priority and demonstrate our commitment to continuous improvement, we embarked on achieving both international registration of our Safety Management System as well as a respected rating from a well recognized independent audit firm. As a result of our research, we selected ARGUS, and through a rigorous, multiple day audit process, we achieved a successful outcome of both IS-BAO registration and an ARGUS Platinum rating. ARGUS was uniquely able to meet all the auditing requirements needed to achieve both goals, increasing our productivity and ultimately saving us significant time and money. The staff at ARGUS proved to be professional, knowledgeable and able to provide valuable feedback and insight. Our audit process with ARGUS helped strengthen our operation, while giving our staff confirmation that their hard work and dedication to safety was recognized and rewarded. Charter First has set itself apart from our competitors, and I am confident that the marketplace will respond positively to our hard-earned ARGUS Platinum status and ISBAO registration."
