Airborne Risk Management
Airborne Risk Management transfers proven risk management principles from aviation, flight testing and cockpit operations to projects in other industries. The methodology combines standardized procedures, human-factor awareness and structured decision-making to improve safety, communication and project reliability.

Origins in Aviation
During more than a century of aviation development, highly effective risk management methods evolved to support increasingly complex aircraft operations. Standardized procedures, disciplined teamwork and continuous learning became essential foundations for achieving today's exceptional level of flight safety.
Beyond the Cockpit
Although originally developed for pilots and flight crews, these principles are equally valuable wherever multidisciplinary teams work under time pressure, manage complex systems or make high-consequence decisions. The concepts support efficient collaboration across technical and organizational boundaries.
Transfer to Other Industries
The medical sector was among the first to adopt aviation-inspired risk management, introducing crew-resource-management-based training programs during the 1990s. The success of these methods demonstrated that aviation safety principles can significantly improve performance in other safety-critical environments.
The Airborne Risk Management Concept
The term Airborne Risk Management was introduced by Moving Terrain Air Navigation Systems AG to describe the systematic transfer of aviation risk management strategies to projects in virtually every industry. The concept provides a practical framework for improving communication, leadership, decision-making and overall project resilience.
