The IOSA Program has evolved over 25 years into a globally recognized, risk-based safety standard that drives operational excellence and collaboration across the aviation industry.

IOSA XML Solutions transform how airlines and software providers manage audit, safety, and content workflows. By integrating IOSA XML data directly into Safety Management Systems (SMS) or Content Management platforms, airlines gain real-time access to accurate documentation, reducing administrative overhead.

IOSA XML Solutions are designed for Air Operators (IOSA members & non-IOSA members preparing for IOSA Audit) and Audit, Safety Management and Content Management Software providers.

IOSA XML and IOSA XML X-REF Modules

IOSA XML is available in two modules to facilitate integration with operators systems.

IOSA XML Module
IOSA XML delivers the IOSA Standards Manual (ISM) in structured XML or CSV formats, enabling seamless integration into airline safety, audit, and content management systems. Airlines benefit from reduced manual effort and improved compliance efficiency, while software providers gain access to official IATA content to enhance and differentiate their offerings.

IOSA XML X-Ref Module
The IOSA XML X-Ref Module provides cross-referenced ISM content aligned with global airworthiness regulations (FAA, EASA, ICAO). Airlines streamline regulatory mapping and updates, while software providers can offer enriched compliance tools. This module complements the IOSA XML, supporting smarter integration and reducing operational costs through automation and accuracy.

Please see the features and benefits of the IOSA XML modules below:
