  Safety performance management – Eurocontrol

  The project

  Development, deployment and support of a safety risk monitoring solution for European regulatory bodies and for state air navigation service providers.

  The scope

  Traditionally, safety performance is measured by the use of reported accidents and incidents that compromise certain specified safety criteria in a number of operational areas. A drawback with such measurements is that they can distort the subsequent mitigation efforts by focusing on the performance of a particular local safety measure, rather than considering an integrated system-wide measure. A system-wide indicator is required from which long term trends can be identified for better risk management. In collaboration with EUROCONTROL and Aloft Aviation Consulting, Corballis has participated in the development of a performance monitoring tool that combines multiple KPIs through an innovative process of aggregating data based on data relationships and assessments of influence of KPIs within the operational system.

  Our implementation

  The application imports mandatory safety incident data and aggregates it to represent a single view of air traffic safety across Europe. This is achieved by aggregating multiple operational safety risks, expressed as the sum of reported incidents, in a weighted manner, into one value that can vary over time. It was designed to support European and national safety policy changes across Europe.

  The performance monitoring tool includes:

  • easily definable performance objectives and goals
  • implementation of the EUROCONTROL APF methodology
  • interactive dashboard with charts, gauges, counters and data lists
  • sophisticated visual data cube techniques (similar to pivot tables in spreadsheet products) to explore, drill-down or roll up data
  • KPI data importer for easy connection to existing data sources or uploading of files (Excel, CVS)
  • innovative definition of the KPI hierarchy using mindmaps
  • export support to a wide range of file formats and APIs
