Notes

Note 1 – The description of facilities (i.e., location, size, capabilities) should also include any satellite locations, if applicable (i.e., Military Base).

Note 2 – Organizational structure, including internal lines of communication and authority, and their relationship to the TCH/TAA, is normally depicted in an organizational chart, with additional content linking to the responsibilities of the key positions within the structure. If the organization also has satellite locations, additional organizational charts/responsibilities should be included, as applicable.

Note 3 – Reference 3.2.c (TAA Advisory 2013-04 – Assignment of Technical Airworthiness Authority – Airworthiness Management Roles) provides guidance on the TAA process to be followed for assignment of authority of an SMSM.

Note 4 – The organization’s MSPM will need to define the training, qualification and authorization requirements for a receiving inspector.

Note 5 – The organization’s MSPM will need to define the training and general authorization requirements for individuals responsible for warehouse activities.

Note 6 – Reference 3.2.l (TAA Advisory 2008-01 – Receiving Inspection for Parts Procured from Canadian Forces Supply System by Civilian Support organizations) provides guidance to assist organizations in accepting/rejecting parts that have been received from the Canadian Forces Supply System (CFSS).

Note 7 – It is expected that an organization’s coverage for the internal audit schedule will include an audit of the MSPM and all associated governing procedures.
