ED Decision 2023/013/R
GENERAL
1. FACILITIES AND WORKING CONDITIONS
A facility is a working area where the working conditions and the environment are controlled as appropriate in respect of cleanliness, temperature, humidity, ventilation, lighting, space/access, noise, and air pollution.
2. EQUIPMENT AND TOOLS
The organisation’s equipment and tools enables all the specified tasks to be accomplished in a repeatable manner without any detrimental effects. The calibration control of the equipment and tools that affect the dimensions and values of products makes it possible for the organisation to demonstrate compliance with, and be traceable to, national or international standards.
3. NUMBER OF STAFF
Sufficient staff means that, for each function, according to the nature of the work and the production rate, the organisation has a sufficient number of qualified staff to accomplish all the specified manufacturing tasks and to attest the conformity of such task. The number of staff should be such that the relevant airworthiness considerations may be applied in all areas without any undue pressure.
4. COMPETENCE OF STAFF
An evaluation of the competence of the staff is performed as part of the quality system. This should include, where appropriate, verification that specific qualification standards have been implemented, for example, for NDT, welding, etc.
Adequate initial and recurrent training should be provided in relation to the job function to ensure that staff remain competent. That training should be adapted based on experience that is gained within the organisation.
GM1 21L.A.125(a) details resources for declared production organisations: controlled facilities, calibrated equipment, sufficient qualified staff, and competence evaluation with initial and recurrent training.
