HAI is poised to launch a helicopter safety accreditation program for small operators and is currently in negotiations with the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC), which helped develop the International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO).

IBAC introduced the IS-BAO program as a code of best practices at the European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition in 2002. At the core of the IS-BAO is the requirement for operators to implement a safety management system (SMS).
