The problem

Aviation security QC still runs on paper.

Quality control underpins your security programme — but the way it's documented hasn't changed in twenty years.

Evidence scattered across paper, email and shared drives

Inspection sheets in binders, screening test logs in spreadsheets, CCTV checks on email — when an auditor asks, nobody can find the full trail.

Findings tracked manually — and quietly lost

Non-conformities raised on paper rarely make it into a structured corrective action plan, so the same issues resurface inspection after inspection.

Slow, painful audit preparation

Days are spent reassembling records, chasing signatures and reconstructing what happened — instead of running the operation.

How it works

The QC loop, end to end.

A single connected workflow — from planning the inspection to closing out the corrective action.

01

Plan QC activities

Schedule audits, inspections, covert and overt tests against your security programme — with templates, frequencies and owners defined up-front.

02

Classify findings

Capture findings on a mobile device, classify by severity and regulatory reference, and link supporting evidence directly to the record.

03

Raise & track CAPs

Convert findings into corrective action plans with owners, root-cause analysis, target dates and progress visible to managers in real time.

04

Verify, close & stay audit-ready

Verify effectiveness, close out actions, and produce the evidence pack a competent authority expects — at the click of a button.

Modules

Everything an aviation security QMS needs.

Purpose-built modules sharing one source of truth — so evidence, people and processes line up.

QC activities & templates

Reusable inspection, audit and test templates aligned to your national aviation security programme.

Findings & classification

Structured findings with severity, regulatory reference and evidence — replacing free-text notes.

Corrective action (CAP) tracking

Owners, root causes, target dates, verification and overdue alerts — all in one register.

Competency & vetting records

Track screener certification, recurrent training and background-check status against every individual.

Controlled documents

Version-controlled SOPs and manuals with classification handling, including RESTRICTED material.

Immutable audit timeline & KPIs

Tamper-evident history of every change, plus KPI dashboards built for regulators and exec review.

Built for regulated aviation security

Designed around the standards your regulator already uses.

EasyQMS Aviation is a tool to help your team meet its obligations. It does not replace the competent person, your security programme, or the authority's oversight.

  • Aligned with the structure of ICAO Annex 17 and the guidance in ICAO Doc 8973.
  • Supports the QC and monitoring obligations set out in national aviation security programmes.
  • Produces the audit trail, records and evidence packs a competent authority typically expects.
  • Built for airport operators, regulated agents, known consignors and aviation security service providers.

EasyQMS Aviation is independent software. References to ICAO documents and national programmes describe the principles the platform is designed around; they do not imply endorsement, accreditation or certification by any regulator.

What an auditor actually sees

  • Inspection records linked to the relevant standard and location.
  • Findings, classifications and supporting evidence in one place.
  • CAPs with owner, due date, status and verification.
  • An immutable timeline of every change, signature and approval.
Security & data

Built for material people don't want on a shared drive.

Aviation security records are sensitive. EasyQMS Aviation is engineered for organisations that handle classified and RESTRICTED information.

Need-to-know access control

Role and site-based permissions, granular document classification and per-record visibility — so the right people see the right information.

Encryption in transit & at rest

All data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Credentials and access tokens are stored using industry-standard secret handling.

Full audit logging

Every create, change, approval and export is logged against the user and time — providing the tamper-evident trail an auditor expects.

Deployment & data sovereignty

Options for region-pinned hosting and tenant isolation to support sensitive and RESTRICTED material handling requirements.
