# How to Manage FBO Safety

> Report safety events, track IS-BAH audit readiness, review corrective actions, and prepare for compliance inspections.

This guide helps you report FBO safety events, monitor IS-BAH compliance progress, follow up on corrective actions, and prepare your facility for audits and inspections.

<Info>
  The FBO module must be enabled for your workspace. Contact your workspace administrator if you do
  not see the FBO section in the sidebar.
</Info>

<Info>
  **Who should read this:** FBO managers, safety coordinators, and IS-BAH auditors.

  **Prerequisites:** The FBO module must be enabled. Reporting safety events requires staff-level FBO access. Viewing IS-BAH and regulatory data requires the safety coordinator or manager role.
</Info>

<Tip>
  Navigate to **FBO > Safety Dashboard** in the sidebar. You can also reach it by clicking the **Safety Events (MTD)** KPI card on the FBO Operations Center.
</Tip>

## Log a safety event

Report a safety event as soon as possible after it occurs. All reports are confidential.

<Steps>
  ### Step 1: Open the report form

  From the Safety dashboard, click the **Report Safety Event** button in the upper-right area.

  ### Step 2: Enter event details

  Complete the following fields:

  * **Event Title** (required) -- a brief one-line description of what happened, e.g., "Fuel nozzle contact with wing leading edge during Jet-A service"
  * **Event Type** (required) -- select the closest matching category from the dropdown
  * **Severity** (required) -- select Low, Medium, High, or Critical based on actual or potential consequence
  * **Location** (optional) -- the specific area where the event occurred, e.g., "Ramp A", "Hangar 3", "Fuel Farm"
  * **Description** (optional but strongly recommended) -- detailed narrative including time, personnel involved, environmental conditions, contributing factors, and any immediate actions taken

  ### Step 3: Submit the report

  Click **Submit Report**. The system assigns an auto-generated event number in the format `SE-XXXX` and sets the status to `open`. You are returned to the Safety dashboard.
</Steps>

<Warning>
  High- and critical-severity events affect the **Days Since Last Incident** KPI counter and reset
  it to zero. Ensure severity is accurately set -- underreporting critical events distorts your
  safety trend data and IS-BAH evidence.
</Warning>

## Follow up on corrective actions

The **Open Corrective Actions** table on the Safety dashboard surfaces the ten most urgent CPAs linked to your FBO safety events. If you want to update a CPA's status or add evidence, click the CPA row to navigate to its detail page in the SMS module.

<Note>
  CPAs are created and managed in **Safety > Corrective Actions**. The dashboard table is read-only. For full CPA management, see [Safety Corrective Actions](/en/how-to/sms/create-cpa).
</Note>

## Review training compliance

The **Training Compliance** card shows how current your staff certifications are. If you want to identify individuals with outstanding certifications, review the per-crew section at the bottom of the card -- staff with incomplete certifications show a yellow badge. Follow up with those individuals before an audit or inspection.

## Prepare for an IS-BAH audit

If you have an IS-BAH assessment approaching, use the Safety dashboard as your readiness tracker.

<Steps>
  ### Step 1: Resolve all open and overdue CPAs

  Open the **Open Corrective Actions** table. Sort by status and address every Overdue row first. IS-BAH auditors review CPA closure rates as evidence of safety assurance activity. An open CPA with a missed due date is a direct finding risk.

  ### Step 2: Bring training compliance to 100%

  Review the **Training Compliance** card. Every crew member with an outstanding certification creates a potential Stage 2 finding. Contact the individuals listed in the crew section and confirm completions at least two weeks before the audit date to allow records to sync.

  ### Step 3: Check IS-BAH chapter scores

  Review the chapter scorecard and identify any chapter scoring below 70%. For each low-scoring chapter, navigate to the **Full Assessment** page, open each failing element, and attach the supporting evidence documents auditors will need to see.

  ### Step 4: Verify all regulatory compliance elements

  Walk through the **Regulatory Compliance** card. Any Partial or Non-Compliant items need a remediation plan documented before the audit. If a regulation is genuinely not applicable (e.g., SPCC for a dry-lease facility with no bulk fuel storage), update the element to N/A with a supporting note.

  ### Step 5: Review safety event trend

  Check the **Safety Events Trend** chart. If the 3-month moving average is trending upward, be prepared to explain what systemic action you have taken. Auditors at Stage 2 and Stage 3 assess whether trend data is actually used to drive improvement decisions.

  ### Step 6: Confirm the dashboard reflects current data

  Verify the **Days Since Last Incident** counter and the **IS-BAH Score** KPI are populated. If the IS-BAH score shows "N/A", your workspace has no audit data configured -- contact your administrator to initialize the IS-BAH checklist before the audit window opens.
