ACC Meeting What We Need From You… 22 May 2014 Warren Storey 33
What We Need From You… Reason for this refresher: Quality Systems • Importance of having a robust Quality Systems • Getting the most out of audits • Understanding what goes on in your organisation ROSI System • Meeting our State ICAO obligations • Getting the most out of our reporting systems • Investigating properly to improve overall safety
What We Need From You… Quality Systems What we expect to see in a Quality System: • Accountable Manager and Quality Manager • Quality and Safety Policy • Exposition and procedures • Audit calendar/plan/schedule* • Audit accomplishment and reporting procedures* • Non-conformity reporting and closure* • Internal review of proposed changes/contracts etc.* • Management Evaluation Meeting and review of organisation performance
What We Need From You… Quality Systems Annual Audit Calendar/Plan/Schedule: • Must cover all parts of CAR M, 145 or 21 approval • Must cover all aspects of each approval – Line/Base/Workshops, including out of hours audits – Each type in service with an operator/maintained – Each Product line manufactured – Significant contractors – ALL sub-contractors – Pre-audits of changes to organisation • Doesn’t have to run 01 Jan to 31 December • Audit plan should be defined in the Exposition • Audits can be re-scheduled • Plan should record when accomplished & closed
What We Need From You… Quality Systems Content of Audit Reports: • A check list showing what was planned and what was actually looked at, good and bad • Evidence to support the report, especially in areas where findings have been recorded • Findings must be raised for non-conformances with GCAA requirements and/or Company procedures • Findings should be properly leveled; review classifications given to assure correct application • Findings should look to address organisational issues, not “lids left off grease tins”
What We Need From You… Quality Systems Management and Closure of Findings: • Findings should be addressed to the department manager responsible for the functional area • That manager should carry out ‘Root Cause’ analysis • The finding response should include ‘corrective’ and ‘preventive’ actions • Findings responses should not be accepted if: – They do not properly identify the root cause – They do not include preventive measures – They don’t correct organisational issues • Carry out follow up/verification audits to confirm
What We Need From You… Quality Systems Root Cause Analysis Identify Recommend Define The Possible Identify The And Collect Data Problem Causal Root Cause Implement Factors solutions • What was the • How • What sequence • Why do the • How can you event widespread is of events leads causal factors prevent it • What do you the problem to the problem exist happening again see happening • How long has • What conditions • What is the real • How will the • What are the the problem allow the reason that the solution be specific existed problem to problem implemented symptoms • What is the occur occurred • Will the solution impact of the • Ask Why often adversely affect problem enough; anything else “5 Whys”
What We Need From You… Quality Systems Internal Review of Proposed Changes/Contracts: • Quality Manager should be aware of and involved in organisational changes from an early stage • New locations/facilities must be audited prior to them being occupied, and ahead of the GCAA visit • Changes to procedures and contracting arrangements should be reviewed/audited by the QA Department to ensure they remain in compliance with regulations, prior to adopting them or proposing them to the GCAA
What We Need From You… Quality Systems Getting The Most Out Of The Quality System: • Don’t waste the effort put into audits by not recording them properly • Don’t waste the effort you put into audits by accepting sub-standard responses or not following up • Don’t waste the effort we all put into GCAA audits by providing sub-standard responses • Manage change • Inform and involve the Accountable Manager
What We Need From You… Reporting Of Safety Incidents ICAO Annex 13 CHAPTER 8 ACCIDENT PREVENTION MEASURES Incident reporting systems • 8.1 A State shall establish a mandatory incident reporting system to facilitate collection of information on actual or potential safety deficiencies. – A State should, following the identification of preventive actions required to address actual or potential safety deficiencies, implement these actions and establish a process to monitor implementation and effectiveness of the responses. – If a State, in the analysis of the information contained in its database, identifies safety matters considered to be of interest to other States, that State should forward such safety information to them as soon as possible.
What We Need From You… Reporting Of Safety Incidents What Do We Need To Achieve An Effective Outcome Information ROSI System Information VORSI System Information
What We Need From You… Reporting Of Safety Incidents What You Need To Report • Operational incidents, failures, malfunctions, defects or exceedances that did (could) result in an unsafe condition • Products, parts and appliances of unknown or suspect origin (Suspect Unapproved Parts) • Incidents involving dangerous goods • Ground Handling Events including loading errors • Disruptive passenger Who Do You Report Too • GCAA ROSI System • The operator of the aircraft • The TC/STC/TSO Holder/manufacturer
What We Need From You… Reporting Of Safety Incidents What do we need to know… • What actually happened – Get the full story from the crew/engineer/CAW staff member/handler who reported the incident? – What maintenance was carried out? – What were the prevailing conditions? – What does the FDR data say? • What actually went wrong – Did we miss some scheduled/required maintenance? – Did a component or system fail? – Has the component workshop been informed that the unit(s) is subject to a safety incident report? Have they been provided with details? – Could any other aircraft/component be affected? Why it went wrong • – Have you carried out a MEDA Investigation? – Have you asked WHY enough?
What We Need From You… Reporting Of Safety Incidents A320 Nose Landing Gear didn’t retract on take off Why? One of the weight on wheels proximity switch Why? targets was damaged and out of adjustment Switch was replaced prior to the flight but aircraft Why? was not jacked to carry out an operational test The aircraft was away from base, hangar access Why? was difficult, equipment was scarce, and the MEDA maintenance instructions were ambiguous The single engineer sent to fix the aircraft was Why? under pressure to release it to service Organisation failed to properly resource the mission, compromising safety • • Manufacturers data is incorrect and pressure meant it was not picked up
What We Need From You… Thank You
Risk Profiling Khalid Saud Al Humaidan Inspector – Engineering Safety
State Safety Oversight System Primary Aviation Specific Operating State System & Legislation Regulations Functions Technical guidance, Licensing, Qualified Technical tools and provision of Certification, Personnel safety-critical authorization and/or information approval obligations Surveillance Resolution of Safety Obligations Issues
Surveillance Obligation Conventional Surveillance Process Planning Inspections / Audits Conducting Inspections / Monitoring Trends Audits Resolution of findings by implementing corrective/preven tative measures
Surveillance Obligation Conventional Surveillance Process • Consistent • Equally applied on all Service Providers • Captures all Service Provider processes/procedures • Well known and implemented by Auditors BUT … • Not Dynamic • Does not cater for a mechanism for customizing the frequency and scope of surveillance activities • Might affect resources allocation • Might not capture impending safety issues due to area of focus
Organization Risk Profile • GCAA aims in introducing set of processes towards prioritizing audits and inspections on those areas of greater safety concern in organizations regulated by the Airworthiness Department. • This risk based surveillance concept will facilitate resource allocation according to areas/organizations with greater risk. Dynamic approach Calibrates audit scope and frequency Prioritize audits Identify areas of safety concern Based on Safety Performance Risk driven Identify Service Provider risk exposure Outcome more productive for Service Providers
Organization Risk Profile How it Works .. ? Map service provider system Identify critical parameters Asses service provider specific parameters performance Parameters aggregated results will allocate a specific category for the service provider. For example, Category A, B, C etc.. Aggregated parameters result will be used to modify audit frequency Specific parameters results will be used to modify audit scope ORP assessment should overlook the service provider system and actively identify levels of risk within the organization
Organization Risk Profile Example … Organization Risk Parameter: Management Structure Risk Level / Profile: 1. Each NPH holds only 1 position (Low Risk) – Score level 1 2. 1 NPH holds 2 positions, all others hold 1 position (Med Risk) – Score level 2 3. More than 2 NPH’s hold more than 2 positions (High Risk) – Score level 3
Organization Risk Profile Example … Organization Risk Parameter: Multiplicity of aircraft types Risk Level / Profile: 1. < 3 aircraft types (Low Risk) – Score level 1 2. 3 to 5 aircraft types (Med Risk) – Score level 2 3. > 5 aircraft types(High Risk) – Score level 3
Organization Risk Profile Audit Frequency Modifier (NOT FINAL. EXAMPLE ONLY) Category ORP Assessment Score Audit Frequency A < 45 (Most Desirable, indicates 24 Months organizational percentage score is above 88% ) B 45 - 54 12 Months C 54– 63 9 Months D 63 – 72 6 Months E > 72 (Least Desirable, indicates Immediate intervention from Principal organizational percentage score Inspector is required as the ORP is less than 50% ) assessment may indicate an organizational concern which must be addressed within a suitable timeframe.
Organization Risk Profile GCAA Phased Approach in Implementing ORP Stage Action Implementation 1 Modify audit frequency June 2014 2 Modify audit strength in terms of resources TBD deployment in addition to stage 1 action 3 Modify audit scope the scope of the audit in TBD addition to stage 1 and 2 actions

Approved Data versus Acceptable Repair Data May 2014
CAAP 66 Approval / Acceptance of Changes & Repairs 7. APPROVAL OF CHANGES / REPAIRS Changes / repairs for an aircraft registered in the UAE require approval from the GCAA or a UAE design organization authorized for approving such changes / repairs … which includes …………’Minor changes / repairs approved under EASA, FAA and Transport Canada systems’ The GCAA has stated that a Boeing RDR is not approved data and therefore a CRS can not be issued to a UAE registered aircraft without CAR 21 or GCAA approval
Approved Versus Acceptable • FAR 14 CFR Part 21 21.93 defines “minor changes’ as those which have no appreciable effect on the weight, balance, structural strength, reliability, operational characteristics, or other characteristics affecting the airworthiness of the product • FAA states that the responsibility of determining major and minor classification rest with operator or repair station…..’only major changes to FAA- approved technical data require FAA approval…(AC120-77)
Approved Versus Acceptable • EASA accepts data in support of minor repairs when… • The FAA is the authority for the state of design for the repair design data • The repair design data has been provided by a US TC/STC or TSOA holder • …in these circumstances repair design data are considered to be EASA – approved following its approval or acceptance under FAA’s system
Boeing Service Letter 737-SL-00-022-D • Clarifies approval process • Details that Boeing is a Delegated Compliance Organization (BDCO) • Compliance with regulations is determined by Authorized Representatives (AR’s) of the BDCO (role previously held by FAA DER’s) – Boeing can now issue 8100-9 • SL states that RDR is considered as approved data by EASA and acceptable data by the FAA
Approved Versus Acceptable References • ED Decision 2004/004/CF • Advisory Circular 120-77 • 14 CFR Part 21 • Technical Implementation Procedures for Agreement between the USA and the EU on Cooperation in the regulation of Civil Aviation Safety dated may 2011
Adoption of Regulation flydubai would like the GCAA to either.. Accept that the RDR represents a minor change or alteration per FAA guidelines and needs no further approval or.. Accept the EASA position that the RDR is approved data
