It is applicable to all products designed and developed to fulfil the requirements of a customer expressed in a (Need) Technical Specification. Industrials are advised to apply the following principles to their own needs for justification in their internal customer/supplier relations.
Clause 5 presents the concepts and the documents associated with the justification of the definition and qualification processes.
Clause 6 summarizes the role and the contractual nature of the qualification of the definition.
Clause 7 gives details of the qualification of the definition process, while Clause 8 positions this process in the programme development logic.
The document also describes the differences between the justification and the qualification of the definition and other notions, such as verification, validation or acceptance (Clause 9).
Clause 10 is a guide to the establishment and maintenance of the documents associated with the justification of the definition and qualification processes. Information related to the certification process, even if it is out of the scope of the present document, is also presented in Clause 10, because this process has certain similarities with the justification of the definition and qualification process.

The purpose of this document is to harmonise the dialogue between manufacturers, prime contractors, owners and the customer in view of making it easier to draw up specifications, share BIT architecture models and the BIT technical configuration of systems during the operational use phase.
This recommendation proposes adopting BIT operational efficiency and performance definitions, architecture design principles, and BIT specification or validation principles. It provides no recommendations regarding the numeric values for operational efficiency or performance. The diversity of situations, development of technological solutions and ever-changing operational requirements make it impossible to list general recommendations.
Clause 6 and Clause 9 set out the general context of use of the BIT.
Clause 7 lists the constraints to be taken into account to design a BIT architecture.
Clause 8 lists the various BIT types currently known and the definitions of performance and operational efficiency (metrics).
Clause 10 provides recommendations on the BIT architecture.
Clause 11 recommends a language for exchanging BIT architecture models for assembling the complete model of a system.
Clause 12 is an introduction to the prognosis.
This European standard is mainly intended for system designers.
Although it is based on examples of aeronautic systems, it is applicable to any type of system.

This document belongs to the documents going along with EN 9200 relating to Project Management Specification.
The aims of this document are as follows:
- to specify/remind the concept of (Need) Technical Specification (N)TS;
- to define the principles and conditions for drawing up, approving, using and updating a (N)TS;
- to propose a template of (N)TS.
The template identifies topics and types of related requirements to be covered in a (N)TS without being completely exhaustive or mandatory. It is due to be analysed like a check-list and tailored according to the type of the product of interest, the context of the bodies involved and the contractual details.
The principle of drawing up a (N)TS applies to both tangible and intangible products (e.g. services).
The customer/supplier relationship addressed by these principles may also apply within a single organization. The concepts of customer and supplier are discussed in this document without distinction between internal or external relationship.
This document implements and adapts EN 16271 to the context, in order to meet the specific needs of the aeronautical field and more generally the needs of other fields.
This document is more explicit about certain aspects of ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148 dedicated to requirements engineering, such as the responsibility for drawing up a (N)TS on a contractual basis and also the process of drawing it up within a programme (stages and milestones). It also supplements the technical specification framework proposed by ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148, in particular with requirements relating to safety of operation and result assurance.
The relationships existing between Functional Performance Specification (FPS) and (N)TS for expression of needs are given in Annex A.

This document belongs to the documents going along with EN 9200 relating to Project Management Specification.
The aims of this document are as follows:
- to specify/remind the concept of (Need) Technical Specification (N)TS;
- to define the principles and conditions for drawing up, approving, using and updating a (N)TS;
- to propose a template of (N)TS.
The template identifies topics and types of related requirements to be covered in a (N)TS without being completely exhaustive or mandatory. It is due to be analysed like a check-list and tailored according to the type of the product of interest, the context of the bodies involved and the contractual details.
The principle of drawing up a (N)TS applies to both tangible and intangible products (e.g. services).
The customer/supplier relationship addressed by these principles may also apply within a single organization. The concepts of customer and supplier are discussed in this document without distinction between internal or external relationship.
This document implements and adapts EN 16271 to the context, in order to meet the specific needs of the aeronautical field and more generally the needs of other fields.
This document is more explicit about certain aspects of ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148 dedicated to requirements engineering, such as the responsibility for drawing up a (N)TS on a contractual basis and also the process of drawing it up within a programme (stages and milestones). It also supplements the technical specification framework proposed by ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148, in particular with requirements relating to safety of operation and result assurance.
The relationships existing between Functional Performance Specification (FPS) and (N)TS for expression of needs are given in Annex A.

IEC 61265:2018 specifies requirements for the electroacoustical performance of systems of instruments used to measure sound for the purposes of aircraft noise certification, and for other comparisons among aircraft models, and provides methods by which tests can be made periodically to verify that the performance continues to conform to the requirements within stated limits. In general, a sound measurement system for this purpose comprises a combination of instruments extending from a microphone, including its windscreen and other accessories, through data recording and processing devices to a suitable output. Different measurement systems, regardless of their composition, perform the necessary functions in different ways and operate on either analogue or digital principles. IEC 61265:2018 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1995. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) addition of guidance for measurements for aircraft other than large transport aeroplanes; b) addition of microphones used in ground plane measurement systems; c) addition of weighted sound level measurements other than one-third-octave band measurements, for certain aircraft types; d) revision and clarification of requirements for digital audio recording; e) addition of requirements for evaluation of measurement uncertainty.

1.1 Application
This standard defines the common nonconformity data definition and documentation that shall be exchanged between an internal/external supplier or sub-tier supplier, and the customer when informing about a nonconformity requiring formal decision. The requirements are applicable, partly or totally, when reporting a product nonconformity to the owner or operator, as user of the end item (e.g., engine, aircraft, spacecraft, helicopter), if specified by contract.
Reporting of nonconformity data, either electronically or conventionally on paper, is subject to the terms and conditions of the contract. This also includes, where applicable, data access under export control regulations.
1.2 Purpose
The process of exchanging, coordinating, and approving nonconformity data via concession or product quality escape varies with the multiple relationships and agreements among all parties concerned. The information provided by this standard forms architecture for submitting and managing data that allows for concise and accurate communication using various documented methods. The main objective of this standard is to provide the definition of a data set that can be integrated into any form of communication (e.g., electronic data interchange, submission of conventional paper forms).

This document specifies the monitoring of mechanical tests and inspections performed both at the
material (coupon) and at the structural scale by the implementation of kinematic field measurements by
digital image correlation. This document describes an in situ method for evaluating the metrological
performance of an extensometer system using image correlation for the delivery of displacement fields,
and by extrapolation, of deformation fields. It can be implemented prior to the actual start of the test
(or inspection). It will inform of the metrological performance in testing conditions.
This document allows the metrological performance of the measuring technology to be quantified.
The methodology described herein is not to be considered as a calibration step. This reference document
does not exhaustively specify the constitutive elements of a generic system of Digital Image Correlation
measurement. This reference does not address the measurement of 3D shapes via stereocorrelation
systems.
