THE NIMROD REVIEW
28 October 2009
An independent review into the broader issues surrounding the loss of the RAF Nimrod MR2 Aircraft XV230 in Afghanistan in 2006
Jeanne was recognised by Charles Haddon-Cave QC in The Nimrod Review for researching, promoting and introducing the RAF's Human Factors Maintenance Error Management System (HF MEMS), a significant RAF safety initiative at the time and now an evolving Defence-wide initiative, Defence Aviation Error Management System (DAEMS)
Jeanne received the Commander-in-Chief HQ Air Command Adrian Ray Memorial Award for making an original, outstanding and practical contribution to Flight Safety
There have been recent praiseworthy advances in pre-emptive Human Factors (HF) reporting using Human Factors Maintenance Error Management Systems ((M)EMS) due in large measure to the initiative of Wing Commander Jeanne Paul (XO Programmes, COS SPP) and the support of Air Commodore Julian Young (ACOS A4). The (M)EMS initiative is already paying substantial dividends in the RAF …
In my view, the (M)EMS initiative is a model of its kind, with huge potential benefits for the improvement of Airworthiness management across the whole of Defence.
Working as part of the Aviation Safety Group, Sqn Ldr Paul has made an outstanding personal contribution to Flight Safety through her development of a Maintenance Error Management System (MEMS). With rigorous analysis of the flight safety archive and building on a growing understanding of human factors across the aviation industry, she has taken significant practical steps to identify and define the need for the RAF to manage maintenance error like any other business risk with a robust corrective programme.
Sqn Ldr Paul’s success throughout has been her ability to take accepted principles from industry and academia and adapt them to RAF needs. She has begun to break the pattern of the same errors happening to different people across the RAF and moved the focus from inadequacies of personnel to remedial activity at the workplace.
