Capability
Aviation Risk Management Software
Register, score, mitigate, and approve operational risk in one structured workflow — with a live 5×5 matrix and a direct audit trail from every safety event.
Safety risk management is one of the four pillars of every modern SMS framework, but spreadsheets make it almost impossible to keep a risk register current, defensible, and connected to the events that drive it. CitadelAero replaces the spreadsheet with a structured register where every risk is scored on a standard aviation matrix, routed for formal approval, and reviewed on a schedule — with full traceability back to the safety reports and audits that raised it.
A risk register built for aviation
Every risk gets a unique reference (RA-XXXX), a status, and hazard rows scored for both likelihood and consequence. A fixed 5×5 aviation risk matrix sits live on every assessment, so scores are consistent across your whole organisation rather than a matter of opinion.
- Unique RA-XXXX references with status tracking and tabbed filtering
- Fixed 5×5 matrix — score = likelihood × consequence (High ≥ 12, Medium 5–11, Low < 5)
- Pre- and post-mitigation scoring calculated automatically
Assess, mitigate, and prove it
Risks move through a controlled lifecycle — Draft, Pending Approval, Active, Archived — with one-click transitions. Sending a risk for approval automatically creates a sign-off action assigned to the right person, and setting a next-review date schedules a reminder 30 days ahead so nothing silently goes stale.
- Status workflow: Draft → Pending Approval → Active → Archived
- Approval workflow auto-creates a sign-off action for the approver
- Review reminders generated automatically 30 days before the due date
Connected to the rest of your SMS
Risk assessments don't live in isolation. They link directly to the safety cases that raised them and feed the same cross-module action tracker as everything else, giving you an unbroken audit trail from a single report to the formal risk decision and the actions that closed it.
- Risks link directly to the safety cases that raised them
- A risk analysis dashboard shows pre/post mitigation matrices across the whole register
- Mitigation actions tracked in the unified, cross-module action dashboard
