identification Problem resolution not built into processes
Commonalities of overlapping effort Unsynchronized scheduling
Time/Resource Intensive for both units and inspectors Heavy
disruption of unit OPTEMPO Units subjected to redundant
comprehensive inspections Disjointed, unconsolidated data bases of

AR 385-10, DA Pam 385-10, and NGR 385-10 require Ground Safety
Assessments and program audits every 36 months Requirement: NGR
385-5 establishes the Aviation Support Activity Accident Prevention
Survey Program (ASAAPS) Facilities shall be subjected to not more
than one ASAAPS in a twelve month period and not less than one
ASAAPS every three years Program Background Slide 4 Existing
Program Deficiencies Aviation Support Activity Accident Prevention
Survey Program (ASAAPS): 1.Not funded for 2011 or 2012 2.Volunteer
participation unreliable due to competing priorities 3.Volunteer
members required to travel for 5 days 4.Results not standardized
5.Results not analyzed for trend analysis and counter measure
development 6.Travel expenses incurred, even if no foundational
safety program existed Program Background Slide 5 Existing Program
Deficiencies Ground Safety Assessments: 1.Results not analyzed for
trend analysis and counter measure development 2.Travel expenses
incurred, even if no foundational safety program existed
3.Resistance from State Safety Managers to be assessed by
contractors during on-site assessments Program Background Slide 6
Composite ARNG Safety Development & Assessment Program Mission
Statement: Identify safety system inadequacies through standardized
remote assessments, share best practices, assist states in
resolving program gaps, thoroughly develop tailored
countermeasures, and deliver actionable metrics for AVS resource
prioritization in order to proactively resolve program deficiencies
to enhance Soldier survivability throughout ARNG formations.
CASDAP: Resolution-focused Slide 7 Composite ARNG Safety
Development & Assessment Program Launches in Q1FY13 Allows
State and Facility Safety Managers to first conduct remote
assessments of their own Safety and Occ Health programs, and
supports customized follow-on developmental actions (on-line
support/on-site coaching) Generates cost savings from reduced
travel of large inspection teams, and greater efficiency in unit
visits Inspection results are maintained on a server, giving units
the ability to self-audit and upload supporting docs SOPs,
appointment orders, HAZLOGS, and photographs substantiate
requirements typically inspected on site Meets requirements based
in AR and NGR 385-series (safety) and AR 40-5 (preventive medicine)
regulations, and satisfies NGR 385-5 (Aviation Support Activity
Accident Prevention Survey Program) requirements Users gain access
to an online continuity file for inspection programs to include
FORSCOM ARMS, range and explosive safety, and SASOHI checklists,
and are able to electronically share best practices Expandable to
incorporate additional checklists in future updates Enables
tailored program development and issue resolution from the ARNG
level, helps generate actionable safety metrics and provides
benchmark examples to facilitate safety program improvements
Detailed video-based users tutorials will be distributed to each
state safety manager in Q1FY13 https://www.guardsafetyeaudit.org

1.CASDAP includes the CASDAT (Composite ARNG Safety Development
& Assessment Team) and the SSC (ARNG Safety Support Center).
The CASDAT is comprised of the CASDAT-C and the CASDAT-M.
2.CASDAT-C, is a team of contract Subject Matter Experts
specializing in ground and aviation safety that provide safety
program development through on-line assessments using the eAudit
Tool. 3.CASDAT-M, is a team of military SMEs conducting on-site
assessments and coaching, following the initial remote phase.
Remote and On-Site Assistance Slide 11 CASDAT-C 1.Coordinate
integration of the eAudit tool across all states and territories
2.Provide Technical assistance 3.Distribute best practices
4.Identify deficiencies and help develop solutions 5.Provide
expertise for countermeasure product development by SSC Team
