A good SMS Information System provides enhanced safety levels, mitigates risk and encourages an overall safety culture across the airport facility, in line with ICAO Safety Management System (SMS) requirements.
ICAO Annex 14 demands that member states introduce regulations to ensure aerodromes have an effective SMS in place. ICAO recommends that airports base their SMS around four main components:

- Safety Assurance
- Safety Risk

They have a single point of reference to manage all compliance activities, eliminating duplication of records and effort.
