The Plan shall document the processes used by the Plan owner to accomplish the following requirements. These requirements shall apply to all electronic components, including off-the shelf components, which are defined by the component manufacturer data sheet, and custom components, which are defined by the original equipment manufacturer.

• Component Selection

• Component Application

• Component Qualification

• Component Quality Assurance

• Component Dependability

• Component Compatibility with the Equipment Manufacturing Process

• Component Data

• Configuration Control

The Plan shall state clearly, concisely, and unambiguously:

• What the Plan owner does to accomplish each of the requirements;

• How compliance to the Plan is demonstrated; and

• The evidence that is available to show that the requirements have been accomplished.

The Plan shall document the processes used to address each of the requirements of clause 5 Technical Requirements.

Where specific requirements do not apply the Plan owner may, with appropriate justification, amend the list of requirements by adding, deleting or modifying them. If this is done, the Plan shall be assessed according to the amended list of requirements as stated in the Plan.

All the requirements in this clause apply to deliverable flight equipment or subassemblies for the Avionics industry as stated in clause 6.6. The Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM Plan owner) has the responsibility of satisfying the requirements given in clause 5. These requirements may be accomplished by either the OEM or may be subcontracted. In either case, the OEM has the responsibility for ensuring all requirements are met.
