The Helideck Certification Agency (HCA) is proud to highlight the ongoing success and expansion of the HiX system, a transformative platform that continues to revolutionise helideck inspections and certifications. Since its launch, HiX has not only delivered on its initial promise but has also gained significant traction with clients across the globe.
HiX at a Glance
HiX, short for “Helideck Inspection and Certification System,” is a cutting-edge web-based platform designed to streamline every stage of the Helideck certification administration process. By replacing traditional methods with a modern, app-driven approach, HiX has brought speed, transparency, and convenience to the forefront of HCA’s operations.
This system allows HCA inspectors to carry out helideck inspections utilising an App on an iPad and upload the data into a web-based system. Clients access the system through a secure customer portal where they can view and close out actions by submitting evidence directly on HiX to the inspector. Once all actions are closed, HiX generates a final Helideck Inspection Report complete with a detailed audit trail of actions and responses. It also produces the Helicopter Landing Area Certificate and associated Information Plate. Customers can view and download all documentation through the secure portal.
This represents a significant investment by HCA, driving improved reporting and communication with customers during the certification process. It also opens opportunities for further developments to enhance offshore helicopter operations.

Since its launch, HiX has seen growing adoption among HCA clients, ranging from single helideck operators to global fleet managers. The platform’s user-friendly interface and real-time capabilities have made it an indispensable tool for ensuring timely and efficient certification. Clients have reported that HiX significantly reduces administrative workloads and accelerates the completion of inspections and certifications.
