Establish the route
Review your design activities, product scope and current engagement with the authority. Identify the applicable route and the prerequisites that need confirmation.
CEMILAC · DESIGN ORGANISATION APPROVAL SCHEME
Design house approvals.
Built on working
design assurance.
Prepare your design organisation for CEMILAC scrutiny with accountable engineering leadership, controlled design work and evidence your team can explain.
SCOPE BEFORE DOCUMENTS
Prepare the design organisation
to demonstrate its capability.
CEMILAC’s Design Organisation Approval Scheme (DOAS) addresses the organisation behind military airworthiness design work. We help you connect your proposed scope, people, design assurance and evidence into a coherent readiness programme.
Build the working system
Work with engineering owners on responsibilities, design review, configuration and change control, verification, supplier interfaces and continued support.
Prepare the evidence
Structure the Design Organisation Exposition and supporting records. Rehearse how your team demonstrates the system and closes readiness gaps.
PRACTICAL OUTPUTS
A programme your design team can own.
Agree the deliverables after a scoped assessment. The aim is to make the design assurance arrangements visible in real work, with clear responsibility for unresolved issues.
- Approval-scope and applicability review
- Design assurance gap and evidence register
- Design Organisation Exposition preparation support
- Responsibility, competence and interface mapping
- Configuration, change and verification evidence review
- Internal readiness review and owned closure plan
Carry the evidence into daily operations.
SuriyaONE can connect the agreed design controls to incoming inspection, operational records, field feedback and corrective action. Deployment scope follows your security boundary and consulting engagement.
QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Know what the engagement can establish.
Does this service grant CEMILAC approval?
CEMILAC makes its own approval decisions. Suriyavaan provides independent preparation and implementation support and holds no delegated approval authority.
Does AS9100 certification establish design approval?
The design-organisation approval route and the QMS certification route have different purposes. We assess the evidence needed for your proposed scope and confirm applicability against the authority’s current requirements.
What do we need for an initial discussion?
A description of your design work, product or system scope, existing approvals, key engineering responsibilities and any current correspondence with the authority. Agree secure access arrangements before sharing controlled material.
REGULATORY REFERENCE
Work from the applicable authority requirements.
IMAP-2023 places Design Organisation Approval with CEMILAC and distinguishes it from production and maintenance organisation approvals. We confirm the applicable requirements and current directions for your scope before defining the programme.
