Baldwin Safety & Compliance has developed a tool that will help companies build on their safety management systems (SMS) through external stakeholder safety and quality reporting. Available to Baldwin SMS subscribers, the tool provides a unique URL that clients can share to facilitate external stakeholder access. This can involve a direct link or a QR code to enable the external reporting.

“Receiving external safety reports can help companies of any size improve safety through widening the scope of hazard identification beyond the organization,” said Jason Starke, director of safety for Baldwin Safety & Compliance. “This tool was developed so external stakeholders can participate as an additional hazard and risk identification mechanism for organizations."

Baldwin, which emphasized that the tool was developed with strict security protocols to protect client data, called external stakeholder safety reporting a key component of an interface management concept backed by the International Civil Aviation Organization. SMS subscribers can activate the tool by contacting Baldwin’s customer support team.
