AMC4 Safety performance indicator (SPI) on automated safety data recording systems Regulation (EU) 2019/317 ANSPs should report to their competent authorities at the beginning of the application period and subsequently on an annual basis, the use of automatic safety data recording systems for the monitoring and recording of SMIs and RIs. Where automated safety data recording systems have been implemented, ANSPs should also answer the following questions: (a) What safety data is captured by the automated safety data recording systems? (b) How is the data captured used in support of the safety risk management framework? (c) How are just-culture organisation principles applied in gathering and using the safety data recorded? (d) How is the monitoring of data sources organised and how is it ensured that available data sources are utilised in a coherent way? (e) How is the data combined to provide the explanatory power to understand the context that led to safety occurrences and anticipate emerging risks? (f) How is the information from safety data analyses fed forward to risk assessment processes and to designers of future systems? (g) How is the information disseminated inside and outside the organisation? (h) Have obstacles of a technical, operational or cultural nature been identified that prevented the realisation of the full potential of a data-driven safety decision-making process? What are the main issues when using automated safety data recording systems?
