EASA Part 21 Subpart J Regulatory Framework – 3 Days

Introduction

Subpart J regulatory approval provides for the Design of Aircraft and Components Design Organisation Approval (DOA). The responsibilities associated with the management of a Design Organisation are numerous and varied with a constant flow of challenges.

The primary function of the DOA holder is to assume full responsibility for all designed products (Initial Airworthiness) including the need to support Continued Airworthiness of the designed product.

As the Owner of the certification responsibility related to the product part or appliance, it is essential to ensure full compliance with all regulatory requirements, national and environmental requirements as well as all related certification specifications.

Part 21 which is essentially harmonised with FAR 21 in so much as the shared objectives was created to deliver efficient certification processes with a reduced (in comparison to FAR 21) Direct EASA certification oversight.

How are you currently measuring the effectiveness of the Design Assurance System to ensure it is delivering an effective return on your investment?

A company holding Part-21 Subpart J Design Organisation Approval (DOA), has the approval to Design and certify aircraft parts.

What is the Benefit of this Training – What will I learn?

a) To be able to explain the Design Organisation Assurance System

b) Achieve a high level of competency within your organization related to regulatory obligations

c) Understanding related to the development and ownership of the continuing airworthiness obligations related to Products Parts and Appliances

d) To understand the mechanism whereby the CVE can certify full compliance with requirements

e) To be able to actively engage in the involvement of all the regulatory authorities and EASA

f) To understand the methodology used to manage and control investigations and the development of Service information
