SABRe Design & Development Process

Purpose

• An ESID describes the interfaces between the supplier’s Design &

Development organisation and the Rolls-Royce Design & Development

business.

• An ESID demonstrates equivalence between the supplier’s Design

Assurance system (documented processes & procedures) and Rolls-

Royce’s Design & Development requirements RRES 90009.

The ESID shall define mitigating actions where these design

assurance systems are not equivalent.

• An ESID replaces the previous Rolls-Royce Requirement for a Design &

Development Quality Plan (DDQP)

Process description overview

ESID Requirement

• RRES 90009 clause 6.2.1

• During supplier selection

• When identified through the annual design supply chain risk assessment.

Scope

• The ESID may cover multiple Rolls-Royce regions, sectors and projects in

order to minimise project and/or site-specific variations.

• The responsibility for working with a supplier rests with the Rolls-Royce ESID

Lead.

- The Rolls-Royce ESID Lead will work in conjunction with the supplier in

completion of the document.

• Ownership of the ESID lies with Rolls-Royce.

Stage 1a - Determine applicable Design & Development

requirements

1.1a – Identify key stakeholders & engage

• It is important that all stakeholders are informed of the creation or

amendment of the ESID to ensure they all have to the opportunity to engage

during its creation and approval.

• Stakeholders should be from all regions and sectors and include an effective

cross section of Functions including Design, Manufacturing and Purchasing.

• Identify ESID approval signatories (see ESID for guidance).

1.2a – Review supplier’s business / scope of approval

• An ESID applies to all Design Engineering activities carried out by a

Design & Development supplier, and its sub-tier suppliers, on behalf of

Rolls-Royce.

• The ESID template is available from the SABRe ‘Briefs & Guidance’

section of the Rolls-Royce Global Supplier Portal. The ESID template is

mandatory and shall be agreed by Rolls-Royce and the supplier.

• Reviewing the supplier’s current business (commodities / projects) as

well as their current approvals, facilitates determining their applicable

Design & Development requirements and validates the Rolls-Royce

approval codes and the supplier approval.

• The supplier’s business / scope of approval can be confirmed by

contacting the applicable Regional Regulatory Authorities and the

applicable Supply Chain Management Team.

1.3a – Review supplier’s previous assessment

/ audit reports

• The most recent Design SCA audit report is a useful resource for the

development of the ESID; it references many of the supplier’s processes

which need to be declared in the ESID.

• The scope of a previous audit may be an indicator of the appropriate

scope of a ESID.

• Obtaining the most recent audit report can be done by contacting the

applicable sector/region’s Audit Programme Manager .

1.4a – Determine requirements applicable to supplier business / scope of approval

• Applicable requirements from following steps 1.2a and 1.2b are to be

captured within appendix 4 of the ESID.

- N/A - Indicates that the requirement is not applicable to the scope of

work.

» Before sending the matrix to the supplier Rolls-Royce will endorse

the cell with “Not Applicable” in place of the compliance

statement.

How To

1.1b – Contact supplier & explain process • Upon contacting the supplier the ESID Lead should take the supplier through

the supplier briefing pack within SABRe.

• The ESID template shall be shared with the supplier at this time.

• The following design supplier compliance matrices shall be used for the

evidence required in appendix 4 of the ESID template :

RRES 90009 - Design & Development

RRES 90014 - Rig test & sub element (where applicable)

RRES 90052 - Whole Engine Development Test (where applicable)

Note

These matrices are ‘preconfigured’ to reflect the applicable RRES

requirements

1.2b – Supplier completes ESID appendix 4

• The compliance status and applicable supplier process / procedure /

specification number & title’ in appendix 4 are to be completed by the

supplier. They record the supplier’s Design Assurance Systems

documented Processes & Procedures which satisfy the requirements

determined in stage 1.4b of the ESID’ s development.

Compliance status

• Process compliance shall be recorded as a yes/no statement.

• Compliance shall be verified as part of the stage 2 ESID validation

process.

• N/A - Indicates that the requirement is not applicable to the scope

of work.

• ‘Applicable supplier process / procedure / specification number &

title’, this is the supplier’s Design Assurance Systems documented

Process/Procedure which covers the requirements subject matter

and satisfies the requirement listed.

Cont...

1.2b – Supplier completes ESID appendix 4 • In cases where requirements are not satisfied the supplier is expected to

complete appendix 6 – Statement/Acceptance of Requirement Non-

compliance

• The supplier should, with reference to RRES 90009, RRES 90014 &

RRES 90052 (as applicable), be able to satisfactorily complete appendix

4. The most effective means of doing this is collaboratively with the Rolls-

Royce ESID Lead.

1.2c - Complete draft ESID

• Having completed appendix 4, Rolls-Royce together with the supplier shall

complete the rest of the ESID template, including:

Detailing of the ESID’s scope and applicability.

Completion of the Responsibility Matrix.

Completing the template with the supplier’s company name and the

supplier’s employee names where required.

• Including appropriate organisation descriptions and diagrams where

required.

Deletion of ESID sections not applicable to the suppliers agreed scope of

e.g. Changes to Approved Design Data Decision Authorisation.

2.1 – Validation of supplier Design Assurance Systems

documented Processes & Procedures

Upon completion of appendix 4, Rolls-Royce shall validate that the referenced

suppliers Design Assurance Systems documented Processes & Procedures satisfy

the applicable RRES 90009, RRES 90014 & RRES 90052 requirements.

For existing suppliers (including extension to scope/approval)

Validation methodology shall be determined using the annual design supply

chain risk assessment process.

This can be achieved by successfully completing one of the following methods:

RRES 90009, RRES 90014 & RRES 90052 offsite audit– ESID section 5.1

As part of the on-site SABRe Compliance Assessment

(SCA) – ESID section 5.2.

For new suppliers

successful completion of an on-site SABRe Compliance Assessment (SCA) ESID

section 5.2.

For suppliers working exclusively to the Rolls-Royce Management System

(RRMS)

Evidence from internal RRMS audit may be used to validate appendix 4.

2.1 - Review appendix 4, validate supplier

Design Assurance Systems documented

Processes & Procedures

Validation shall include:

• Organisation charts detailed in appendix 1, 2 & 3

• Process compliance to applicable RRES requirement

• Supplier evidence of process compliance

• Successful validation will allow progression to the next stage

All audit findings resultant from validation shall be either closed or recorded as

‘compliance gaps’ in appendix 4 & 6 prior to ESID approval.

• Validation shall be undertaken by an accredited Rolls-Royce Design Auditor.

• Subsequent surveillance of the suppliers ongoing compliance to the ESID shall be via

SCA audit, RRES 90009 desktop audit and RRMS internal audit as applicable.

Where audit findings impacting on the compliance statements within the ESID

are closed out within agreed terms of the finding, the ESID does not require

revision/reissue.

• The supplier shall approve the document as appropriate and send the

original hardcopy to the Rolls-Royce ESID Lead.

2.2 - Supplier approves and issues ESID to

Rolls-Royce for approval.

.

• Upon receipt of the approved ESID from the supplier, the Rolls-Royce

ESID Lead shall issue the hardcopy to the Rolls-Royce signatories for

approval.

2.3 - Rolls-Royce sign and approve ESID

• When Rolls-Royce has signed and approved the ESID, Rolls-Royce

shall formalise and issue the document.

• The Rolls-Royce version is the master document

• Rolls-Royce shall issue a controlled copy of the ESID to the supplier

The supplier retained ESID is a controlled copy of the Rolls-Royce

master document.

• The Rolls-Royce master document of the signed ESID is stored in

accordance with the requirements of the Rolls-Royce Management

System.

The master copy of the DDQP/ESID is to be stored onto the

Engineering & Technology, Engineering Quality DDQP/ESID

Forumpass site and updated as appropriate.

2.4 - Document stored in accordance with

Rolls-Royce requirements.
