By following this guide, you will use the Executive Safety Dashboard to monitor high-level safety metrics, review compliance status, track risk trends over time, and prepare for management review meetings.
The Executive Dashboard is available to the Accountable Executive, Director of Safety, Safety Manager, and Admin roles. The dashboard shows workspace-wide data across all departments and aircraft.

Access the Executive Dashboard

Navigate to Safety > Executive in the sidebar. The dashboard loads with the current month’s data by default. Use the date range selector in the top right to adjust the reporting period.

Understand the Dashboard Sections

The Executive Dashboard is organized into five sections, each providing a different lens on safety performance.

Safety Pulse

The top section displays four headline metrics:
MetricDescription
Safety ScoreComposite score reflecting overall SMS health (0—100).
Open ReportsNumber of safety reports awaiting triage, investigation, or closure.
Overdue CPAsCorrective and preventive actions past their due date.
Compliance RatePercentage of 14 CFR Part 5 elements with documented evidence.
Each metric includes a trend indicator showing the direction of change compared to the previous period.

SPI Performance

A set of sparkline charts showing each active Safety Performance Indicator over the selected time range. SPIs that have breached a threshold are highlighted with the corresponding alert color (yellow, orange, or red). Click any SPI to navigate to its detail page.

Risk Heatmap

A visual summary of the current risk register plotted on the 5x5 risk matrix. Each cell shows the count of active hazards at that severity-likelihood intersection. Cells in the unacceptable zone are highlighted in red. Click a cell to view the hazards in that risk category. A stacked area chart showing report volume over time, broken down by report type (safety report, ASAP, hazard observation, anonymous). Use this to identify seasonal patterns, the impact of safety promotions, and whether reporting volume is trending in the right direction.

Compliance Status

A progress bar for each of the four SMS pillars showing the percentage of required elements that have been documented and evidenced:
  • Safety Policy and Objectives (14 CFR 5.21—5.27)
  • Safety Risk Management (14 CFR 5.51—5.55)
  • Safety Assurance (14 CFR 5.71—5.75)
  • Safety Promotion (14 CFR 5.91—5.93)
Click a pillar to drill down into the individual compliance elements.

Use the Dashboard for Management Review

The Executive Dashboard aligns with the management review requirements in 14 CFR 5.27. Use it to:
  1. Assess SMS effectiveness — review the Safety Score trend and SPI performance over the review period.
  2. Review open risks — use the risk heatmap to identify unacceptable risks requiring executive attention.
  3. Track corrective action completion — check the overdue CPAs metric and drill into outstanding items.
  4. Verify compliance posture — confirm that compliance percentages are on track for the May 28, 2027 deadline.
  5. Export a summary — click Export to generate a PDF report suitable for board meetings or regulatory submissions.
Schedule a recurring monthly or quarterly review of the Executive Dashboard as part of your management review process. This creates a documented record of executive safety oversight as required by 14 CFR 5.27.
AI suggestions are advisory only. Per 14 CFR Part 5, all safety assessments, investigation findings, and risk evaluations require independent human evaluation by qualified personnel. AI recommendations should be used as one factor among many in decision-making, not as the sole basis for any safety, operational, or maintenance action. See Legal Notices.
