Operational Risk Assessment & Mitigation
Fee quoted on request
Structured identification, assessment, and mitigation of operational risks — for small operators who need a risk picture they can act on, not a binder of generic hazards.
Who it is for
Small Part 135 operators, §91.147 air tour operators, and Part 21 organizations newly subject to FAA Safety Management System requirements, and any small operator that wants a current, prioritized view of its highest risks.
What's Included
- Hazard identification from your operation's own records, reports, and frontline input — not a copied hazard list
- Risk assessment using severity and likelihood, applied consistently so risks can be compared and prioritized
- A risk register that records each hazard, its assessment, and its current controls
- Prioritized mitigation actions with owners and target dates
- A briefing for accountable leadership on the top risks and the actions that matter most
How it works
- Scope and data. We agree the operation, fleet, and activities in scope, and review the records and reports you already have.
- Identify hazards. Structured review with management and frontline personnel to surface hazards in day-to-day operations.
- Assess and prioritize. Each hazard is assessed and ranked, so effort goes to the highest risks first.
- Mitigate. Practical controls are agreed for the top risks, with owners and dates — not vague recommendations.
- Track to closure. Actions are tracked until they are done and checked, so the register stays live.
Deliverables
- Risk register (document you can keep updating)
- Prioritized mitigation action plan
- Leadership briefing on the top risks
FAQ
How long does it take?
It depends on the scope of the operation and the activities assessed. Timeline is confirmed in our reply after you send an inquiry.
Do you need to come on site?
Work can be done remotely, on site, or as a mix — confirmed for each engagement.
Is this an FAA approval?
No. This is independent consulting support. The FAA makes the final determination on compliance; we help you build the risk picture the rule requires.
What do you need from us?
Access to relevant operational records and reports, and time with management and frontline personnel for the hazard review.
Please note — custom-quoted service. Root Cause Analysis Training, Safety Investigation Report Writing, SMS Implementation Support & Gap Analysis, Operational Risk Assessment & Mitigation, and Unsafe-Event & Accident-Precursor Analysis Support are assessed individually, project by project. No fixed price is listed for these services. After you send an inquiry, we will assess the scope and confirm a price in our reply. No payment is due, and no charge is made, until that quoted price is confirmed. This is different from our fixed-price packages, which are charged at the listed price when you use Order Now.
Why is this quoted, not fixed-price? A risk assessment is scoped by what is being assessed: operation type, fleet and routes, the hazards and scenarios in scope, whether facilitated workshops with your staff are included, and how detailed the deliverables need to be. Those factors differ for every operator, so the price can only be set after the scope is reviewed. Send an inquiry and we will assess your scope and confirm a price in our reply.
