    Holder and Unit Responsibilities

    2017 ODA Seminar Ralph Meyer, AIR-160

  • 2 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Overview

    • Accountability framework– Applicant responsibilities– FAA/designee responsibilities

    • In terms of ODA…..

  • 3 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    The Underlying Premise is…

  • 4 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Accountability Framework Applicants for a design approval have a regulatory obligation to:

    Use means of compliance acceptable to the FAA Submit data that “Shows” that their designs are compliant

    Design Approval Holders have an ongoing regulatory obligation to:

    Maintain compliant designs with no unsafe features Report product failures, malfunctions, and defects

    FAA promotes (not ensures) Aviation Safety by… Issuing regulations Specifying the certification basis Providing guidance regarding acceptable means of compliance Overseeing compliance Taking enforcement actions as necessary Issuing certificates and approvals; and Mandating corrective action as necessary

  • 5 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Accountability Framework in Part 21 • An Applicant is required to…

    – Conduct all inspections and tests to show compliance of design and product (14 CFR 21.33(b)).

    – Make all flight tests that the Administrator finds necessary (14 CFR 21.35(b)).

    – Submit all data showing compliance (14 CFR 21.21(b)). – Provide a statement certifying compliance (14 CFR 21.20(b))

    • The Administrator… – Finds upon examination of the type design that applicable

    requirements have been met (14 CFR 21.21(b)1). – Makes any inspections and tests necessary to determine

    compliance of applicant’s design and product (14 CFR 21.33(a)).

  • 6 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Accountability Framework-ODA

    • 183.41 Applicability and Definitions ODA holder – the organization that obtains the authorization from the administrator, as identified in the letter of designation ODA unit – an identifiable group of two or more individuals within the ODA holder’s organization that performs the authorized function

  • 7 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Thus:

    • ODA holder – entity authorized as a representative of the FAA to perform authorized functions

    • ODA unit – individuals identified by the ODA holder who perform the authorized functions

    • The ODA unit is part of the ODA holder – Not a separate entity

  • 8 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Again…..

    • The ODA unit is part of the ODA holder – Not a separate entity

    • When policy, etc. refers to the ODA holder, it includes the ODA unit. – It does not mean “theodaholderexceptfortheodaunit”

  • 9 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    8100.15 Perspective • “ODA holder” is used to generally describe the

    organization – including “ODA” unit authority• “ODA unit” is used when specifically addressing

    FAA functions• The ODA holder might be a certificate holder in

    some cases– Required to be certificate holder for many ODA types

    • “ODA” is used only to refer the “authorization”, notan organizational element

  • 10 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    What about the ODA administrator?

    • Recognized as part of the unit in 183.51. – …must have within its ODA unit-

    (a) At least one qualified ODA administrator…..and (b/c) staff to perform authorized functions

    • Does ODA administrator have to perform functions? – Probably, definitely, maybe not. Regulations are unclear

    • Administrator is FAA POC for all requirements – Performance of FAA functions – ODA holder requirements from part 183 – “Applicant” responsibilities

  • 11 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    “The ODA”

  • 12 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    8100.15 Perspective

    • ODA procedures manual contains all required ODA holder processes – Its not an ODA unit procedures manual, although

    many of the processes define ODA unit procedures….

    – Has ODA holder requirements not directly related to FAA function/approvals

    • Submittal of applications • Development and coordination of certification plans, etc.

  • 13 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Accountability Framework ODA Holders applying for a design approval have a regulatory

    obligation to: Use means of compliance acceptable to the FAA Submit data that “Shows” that their designs are compliant

    ODA Holders have an ongoing regulatory obligation to:

    Maintain compliant designs with no unsafe features Report product failures, malfunctions, and defects

    ODA holders (through their ODA units) promote (not ensure) Aviation Safety by…

    Making findings of compliance Issuing certificates and approvals

  • 14 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Accountability Framework in Part 21 • An ODA holder is required to…

    – Conduct all inspections and tests to show compliance of design and product (14 CFR 21.33(b)).

    – Make all flight tests that the Administrator finds necessary (14 CFR 21.35(b)).

    – Submit all data showing compliance (14 CFR 21.21(b)). – Provide a statement certifying compliance (14 CFR 21.20(b))

    • The ODA holder, through its ODA unit… – Finds upon examination of the type design that applicable

    requirements have been met (14 CFR 21.21(b)1). – Makes any inspections and tests necessary to determine

    compliance of applicant’s design and product (14 CFR 21.33(a)).

  • 15 Federal Aviation Administration Applicant/ODA Responsibilities 2017 ODA Seminar

    A Systems Approach to Oversight, Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Questions For You

    • Is the ODA holder also the applicant? • Is the ODA holder or ODA unit authorized to

    perform functions? • Where does the ODA holder’s authority

    come from? • Where does the ODA unit’s authority come

    from?

    Federal Aviation Administration

    Compliance Philosophy

  • 2 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Compliance Philosophy “The Compliance Philosophy is the latest step in the evolution of how we work with those we regulate. It focuses on the most fundamental goal: find problems in the National Airspace System before they result in an incident or accident, use the most appropriate tools to fix those problems, and monitor the situation to ensure that they stay fixed.” FAA Administrator Michael Huerta

  • 3 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Compliance Philosophy Success For the compliance philosophy to be successful the aviation community should: • Have an Open and Transparent Exchange of

    Information with the FAA • Disclose Mistakes without Fear of Punishment • Identify and Acknowledge the Problem • Learn from the Mistake • Implement Fixes that Prevent a Reoccurrence

  • 4 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    • Promotes the highest level of safety and compliance with regulatory standards.

    • Requires using the most effective means to return a regulated entity to full compliance.

    • Promotes an open, problem-solving approach to allow safety problems to be understood through the proactive exchange of information.

    • Allows for the use of a less stringent means to gain compliance, when an entity is willing and able to take corrective action.

    • Identifies that intentional or reckless noncompliances pose the highest risk to safe operation, and require strong enforcement.

    Compliance Philosophy Overview

  • 5 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    FAA Compliance Philosophy

    FAA Order 8000.373 Establishes the framework and reinforces the discretion that public law and agency policy already provide for FAA program offices to take the most appropriate action to resolve safety issues in the NAS.

    FAA Compliance and

    Enforcement Program FAA Order 2150.3 Manages general guidance, as well as Enforcement Action (administrative and legal) guidance.

    AIR/AFS Compliance and Enforcement Processes

    Decision process for determining the appropriate action. - AIR: Business Process AIR-002-035. - AFS: Order 8900.1 Vol. 14; N 8900.325; N 8900.343. - ODA: Addressed initially by the OMT lead’s service offices guidance listed above.

    FAA Policy Overview

  • 6 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    New Policy and Procedures • Compliance and Enforcement Action decisions are focused

    on observable behavior and the facts and circumstances of each case: - Does the entity consistently perform in a positive manner toward

    regulatory requirements? - Does the entity understand or recognize its role in the

    noncompliance? - Does the entity cooperate with FAA personnel to achieve

    compliance? - Does the entity take the necessary actions to come into and maintain

    compliance? - Are there repeated failures to take corrective actions or repeated

    deviations? - Is the entity noncompliant in more than one area? Does it involve

    multiple area/functions?

  • 7 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Additional Considerations

    • The regulated entity must be “willing.” – Acknowledges responsibility for the deviation – Shares Information to help determine cause of the deviation – Promptly Implements or agrees to implement Corrective

    Action

    • The regulated entity must be “able.” – Possess the time & resources to correct the deviation – Has the ability to develop thorough and effective corrective

    action – Has access to data, equipment, facilities, etc. to comply with

    regulatory requirements and appropriately manage risk

  • 8 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Legal – 2150.3 Used to address noncompliances which may be intentional or reckless, and/or where compliance could not be achieved through administrative means.

    Administrative – 2150.3 Used when a compliance action is not sufficient gain compliance, but the noncompliance does not warrant legal action.

    Compliance – LOB Policy Used as the first means to gain compliance when a regulated entity is willing and able to take corrective action and legal action is not warranted (e.g., not intentional or reckless).

    Used to promote regulated entities to proactively self-identify, disclose to the FAA, and correct noncompliances found.

    Voluntary Disclosure Reporting Program

    We encourage, support and promote performance, responsibility and accountability to obtain a safety minded organization. Allowing entities to resolve, events involving safety deviations /minor violations internally, within the context of their approved SMS.

    We use regulatory tools such as enforcement, to sustain downward pressure to obtain compliance and discourage noncompliance.

    How it fits together

  • 9 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    What is the Voluntary Disclosure Reporting Program (VDRP)

    • Used to allow Regulated Entities (PAH/DAH/ODA) tovoluntarily disclose noncompliances to the FAAwithout fear of punishment.

    • Encourages entities to be proactive in identifying,disclosing, and correcting noncompliances.

    • Ensures transparency and data sharing with theagency.

    • Supports the Compliance Philosophy by promotingusing a non-enforcement means when an entity iswilling and able to correct noncompliances.

  • 10 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Changes to VDRP-Issuance of AIR AC 00-68 • AC 00-68 adopts the principles of the Compliance

    Philosophy by creating a process that is separate from the Enforcement process.

    • Creates an AIR specific means to disclose noncompliances based on risk. Introduces two methods to disclose, informally and formally.

    • Includes the ability for not only PAHs, but ODAs and DAHs to disclosure regulatory noncompliances. – Now includes the ability to disclose issues identified

    under Part 21, 26, 45, and 183.

  • 11 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Processing Voluntary Disclosures Informal Disclosures Formal Disclosures

    • Used for non-systemic, less critical or easy to fix noncompliances.

    • Streamlines the process by allowing for multiple noncompliances and corrective actions to be submitted at a single time.

    • Requires an agreement place between the FAA and the regulated entity to establish timeframe, method, types of noncompliances disclosed.

    • The entity is responsible for including a causal analysis and corrective action for each noncompliance disclosed.

    • The FAA is responsible for conducting a sample verification of the noncompliances disclosed.

    • Used for critical/ systemic and safety related noncompliances.

    • Each individual noncompliance must be disclosed within 24 hours of the noncompliance being found.

    • Follow 6 stage process that requires the entity to create a corrective action plan.

    • Entity will submit the corrective action plan to the FAA to accept and verify corrective action.

  • 12 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Compliance Action • A new term to describe the FAA’s collection of non-

    enforcement methods to correct unintentional deviations that arise from factors such as flawed system and procedures, simple mistakes, lack of understanding, or diminished skills.

    • When an entity is willing and able to correct the issue. The FAA will utilize the following to request corrective action: – Verbal Counseling – Written request for improvements to systems, procedures, and

    training programs.

    • A Compliance Action is not an Adjudication nor does it constitute a finding of Violation.

  • 13 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Processing Compliance Actions Informal Compliance Actions Formal Compliance Actions • Informal Compliance Action can be used

    if one or more of the following is true- Noncompliance is not systemic in

    nature; Compliance can be achieved with

    relative ease; Noncompliance was to an internal

    procedure. • FAA notification can be verbal or written.

    • The entity is responsible for providing a causal analysis and corrective action for each noncompliance.

    • The FAA is responsible for tracking the action and verification of the corrective action.

    • Formal Compliance Action is used- If the noncompliance does not meet

    any one of the Informal Action criteria; or

    For any safety concern.

    • FAA notification will be in writing.

    • The entity is responsible for providing a causal analysis and detailed corrective action plan for the noncompliance(s).

    • The FAA is responsible for tracking the action, accepting the corrective action plan, and verification of the corrective action(s).

  • 14 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Not Eligible for Compliance Action

    • Intentional or Reckless Deviations • Unwilling or Unable to Comply • Failure to Complete Corrective Action • Violations Involving Law Enforcement • Matters Involving:

    – Certain matters of Competence or Lack of Qualifications to Hold a Certificate

    – Unacceptable Risk to Safety

  • 15 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Administrative Actions • Should be used and processed in accordance with Order

    2150.3, when an entity is unwilling or unable to gain compliance, or compliance was not achieved via compliance action

    • Processing Administrative Actions Issue a letter of investigation (LOI). Require the regulated entity to complete a root cause analysis and

    submit a corrective action plan (CAP). Issue letter of correction (LOC) to accept the CAP or close the case if

    corrective action has been verified. Verify corrective action was implemented and is effective. Close action with a letter acknowledging completed corrective action

    (LACCA).

  • 16 Federal Aviation Administration A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement Compliance Philosophy 2017 ODA Seminar

    Legal Actions • Processed in accordance with Order 2150.3, when legal action

    is warranted, or when compliance could not be achieved by administrative means.

    • Processing Legal Actions- Issue a letter of investigation (LOI), notifying the regulated entity of the

    noncompliance. Create Statement of Case (section B). Recommended Sanction Collect evidence as items of proof (section C). Work with and assist regional counsel to issue sanction.

    ODA Seminar – Chicago, IL, June 15, 2017

    A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    ODA Scorecard Philosophy • Partner with our applicants so our mutual performance

    consistently meets each others expectations and work toward Company/ODA self management

    • Focus FAA involvement in projects that have areas inside the ODA authorization that are high risk or are inherently governmental. – Work toward reducing FAA involvement through training and demonstrated

    company ODA performance

    • Foster a working relationship that meets or exceeds expectations or demonstrates a trend towards improvement – If not green-green identify challenge areas in the Scorecard

    • Utilize Scorecard results to identify areas for improvement and increased delegation – Deliberate FAA/Applicant collaborative actions plans should be developed to

    enable tracking improvements

    ODA Scorecard Initiative

    ODA Seminar – Chicago, IL, June 15, 2017

    A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    Why an ODA Scorecard?

    • Certification Reform Mandate by Congress – FAA has implemented the reforms identified by the

    FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 – Industry and Congress have indicated that the

    benefits have yet to be realized • Desire to optimize ODA

    – Improve consistent approach across the service – Better utilization of resources – More useful metrics

    A Systems Approach to Oversight,

    Compliance and Continuous Improvement

    ODA Scorecard Initiative • Measure mutual performance • Opportunity to engage in productive dialogue • Will help distinguish between local difficulties and national

    issues • Scorecard intended to facilitate ODA/OMT working together

    and plan for the future • Initial focus is on TC and STC ODA types • Recognize that each ODA/OMT is unique

    Purpose: Improve the usefulness of ODA delegation

    from a joint FAA and Industry perspective. A tool to help facilitate Certification Reform
