Evidence

The questions are used to evaluate the

quality of the deliverable attached to theelement.

Typical aspects of the deliverable to be

evaluated through the questions are:

1. Quality/availability of the inputs needed

to build the deliverable

2. Cross-functional approach to answer the

deliverables

3. Quality /conformity to a standard if any

or to best practices

4. control of the outcome of the deliverable(e.g. action plan)

Input evidence of the answer to the

question (e.g.: document reference) here.

If an "X" is in the preceding N column

(column D) then describe the issue here

including root cause in order to identify

proper actions .

Y* - Put an "X" if complete and is OK or "IP"

if in-progress as planned.

N - Put an "X" if it is Not OK .

N/A - Put an "X" if you have agreed with

your customer that this question is Not

Applicable.

RYG - Put an "R" here if the answer to the

question is not acceptable and there is no

recovery plan. Put a "Y" here if there are

problems with the question but is

recoverable with an action plan inplace.

Put a "G" if it is on track or satisfactorily

complete. When you put an "R" or "Y" you

will need to complete the "Actions

Required" and subsequent columns.

# Question

1

Are all necessary input documents available and

released (Design technical requirement documents,

Quality and reliability goals, process constraints)?

2Are all requirements from input documents

cascaded into the product specification, traced and

recorded?

3

Has the design team verified that product

specification requirements are addressing the right

level of the system breakdown.(e.g.: do not require a

component supplier to meet an Aircraft level

requirement or impose an equipement specification

4

Is each requirement validated? Has the means of

validating each requirement been defined?

In case of no agreement on the requirement with

customer impacts are measured and actions

described accordingly.

5Have the proof-reading and review process been

successfully completed? (internal by supplier and

with customer)?

6Are CI/KC properly integrated into product

specification?

7Is there consistency with other contractual

requirement documents (e.g.: SOW)?

8

Are there any changes foreseen (Change requests...)which could impact product development agreed

schedules? Is there a mitigation action plan to

guarantee that the agreed schedule is met?
