What We Offer

Safety Management Systems (SMS)

We assist organizations in implementing ICAO-compliant Safety Management Systems. Our approach integrates risk analysis, safety oversight processes, reporting tools, and internal safety promotion in ways that suit your infrastructure and traffic environment.

Aviation Policy Advisory

Dumfries Aviation provides policy development support for ANSPs and CAAs, including regulatory analysis, framework design, and legislative alignment. Our work helps clients stay ahead of evolving global standards while maintaining operational integrity.

Regulatory Compliance Guidance

Stay audit-ready with expert guidance on regulatory obligations and ICAO annex alignment. We conduct readiness evaluations, identify compliance gaps, and develop remediation strategies tailored to your operational context.

Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) Development

We build or update your SOPs to reflect accurate, usable, and ICAO-aligned documentation. From air traffic controller procedures to emergency coordination checklists, our SOPs are built to be used — not just filed.

Training & Capacity Building

We design and deliver custom training programs for air traffic controllers, safety inspectors, and supervisors. Training includes communications phraseology, decision-making under pressure, procedural application, and ICAO compliance standards.
