GM1 21L.A.273(f) Production control system ED Decision 2023/013/R INSPECTION OF PARTS IN PROCESS The purpose of the production inspection system is to carry out checks at suitable points during production and provide objective evidence that the correct specifications are used, and that processes are carried out strictly in accordance with those specifications. During the manufacturing process, each part should be inspected in accordance with an inspection plan that identifies the nature of all inspections required and the production stages at which they occur. The inspection plan should also identify any particular skills or qualifications required for personnel that carry out the inspections (e.g. NDT personnel). If the parts are such that if damaged, they could compromise the safety of the aircraft, additional inspections for such damages should be performed at the completion of each production stage. ##### GM1 21L.A.273(f) Production control system *ED Decision 2023/013/R* **INSPECTION OF PARTS IN PROCESS** The purpose of the production inspection system is to carry out checks at suitable points during production and provide objective evidence that the correct specifications are used, and that processes are carried out strictly in accordance with those specifications.
