Introduction
In Accordance with Regulation (EU) 2022/201 The design organisation shall establish, implement and maintain a design management system that includes a safety management element and a design assurance element with clearly defined accountability and lines of responsibility throughout the organisation.
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.
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.
