7、defense industry organizations must produce and continually improve safe, reliable products that meet or exceed customer and regulatory authority requirements. The globalization of the industry, and the resulting diversity of regional/national requirements and expectations, has complicated this obje
8、ctive. End-product organizations face the challenge of assuring the quality of, and integrating, product purchased from suppliers throughout the world and at all levels within the supply chain. Industry suppliers and processors face the challenge of delivering product to multiple customers having va
9、rying quality expectations and requirements. The aviation, space, and defense industry established the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) for the purpose of achieving significant improvements in quality and safety, and reductions in cost, throughout the value stream. This organization incl
10、udes representation from companies in the Americas, Asia/Pacific, and Europe. This document standardizes requirements for the direct shipment of articles from a supplier of an approved manufacturer to a customer of an approved manufacturer and was originally produced as a cooperative effort between
11、the FAA and the IAQG. The establishment of common expectations, for use at all levels of the supply-chain by organizations, should result in improved quality and safety, and decreased costs, due to the elimination or reduction of organization-unique requirements and the resultant variation inherent
12、in these multiple expectations. SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP9114A Page 2 of 9 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. SCOPE 3 1.1 General . 3 1.2 Purpose . 3 2.

16、.1 General Limited to the aerospace industry, where an approved manufacturer requests a supplier to ship an article against the approved manufacturers quality system directly to a customer. The direct ship process is not required or applicable to standard parts or military parts. In this process the
17、 approved manufacturer is responsible for assurance that the article conforms to type design information. 1.2 Purpose This document provides guidance to approved manufacturers, their suppliers, and customers when an approved manufacturer requests a supplier to ship an article against the approved ma

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS An acronym log for this standard is presented in Appendix A. Fo
22、r the purpose of this standard, the following definitions are used: 3.1 Approved Manufacturer also known as Production Approval Holder (PAH) A manufacturer that is responsible for the quality of an article and has obtained the right to use a design from the design approval holder (may be the same en
23、tity). This is the holder of a Production Certificate (PC), Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA), Technical Standard Order (TSO) authorization, Production Organization Approval (POA), European Technical Standard Order (ETSO) authorization, or other production approval issued by any National Aviation Au
24、thority (NAA). 3.2 Article Material, part, product, component, assembly, or appliance which is listed by the approved manufacturer as eligible for installation in a type certificated product or included in the design data approved by the regulatory authority, not inclusive of standard parts. 3.3 Cus
25、tomer The recipient of a direct ship article (e.g., owner/operator, repair station, distributor). 3.4 Delegated Inspection The delegation of inspection authority to a supplier on behalf of the approved manufacturer. 3.5 Direct Ship Authorization The written authorization granted by an approved manuf
26、acturer to a supplier to ship articles directly to a customer, without the articles being processed through the approved manufacturers own facility. The direct ship authorization may be limited in scope. Some examples of limitations include part number(s), time period, and customer(s).3.6 Direct Shi
27、p Declaration A written statement from the supplier that accompanies a direct ship article stating the article was produced under the terms of the approved manufacturers production approval. 3.7 Product An aircraft, aircraft engine, or propeller. 3.8 Standard Part A part manufactured in compliance w
28、ith an established government or industry-accepted specification that contains design, manufacturing, and uniform identification requirements. The specification must include all information necessary to produce and conform the part, and must be published so that any person/organization may manufactu
29、re the part. SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP9114A Page 5 of 9 3.9 Statement of Conformance (SOC) Evidence provided by the supplier certifying the article conforms to approved data. 3.10 Supplier The furnisher of articles or related services, at any tier, to an approved manufacturer. 4. DIRECT SHIP REQUIREMENT
30、S 4.1 General The direct ship process involves an approved manufacturer, a supplier, and a customer. In a chronological flow, the customer requests an approved manufacturer to provide an article and delineates any special requirements. The approved manufacturer determines that the article is to be o
31、rdered/produced/delivered from a supplier and requests the supplier to ship the article directly to the customer. The contracts are between the customer and the approved manufacturer, and again between the approved manufacturer and the supplier (see Figure 2). In some cases, the approved manufacture
32、r allows the customer to buy directly from the supplier. In those cases, the supplier should obtain permission from the approved manufacturer for this arrangement. 4.2 Approved Manufacturer 4.2.1 Procedures An approved manufacturer that intends to issue direct ship authorization to a supplier must h
33、ave approved quality procedures that will compensate for the absence of inspections normally conducted at the approved manufacturers facility. Compensating factors shall include onsite evaluations of the supplier and the inspection of the article as either: a. Source inspection performed by the appr
34、oved manufacturer; or b. Inspection by the supplier under a delegated inspection authority from the approved manufacturer. 4.2.2 Direct Ship Authorization The approved manufacturer shall provide direct ship authorization to a supplier. 4.2.3 Records The approved manufacturer shall issue and maintain
35、 records of direct ship authorization and make them available to regulatory authorities, upon request.

36、the article. b. Meet any special customer requirements accepted by the approved manufacturer. c. Maintain evidence of direct ship authorizations granted by the approved manufacturer.d. Maintain evidence of direct shipments made on behalf of the approved manufacturer. e. Provide with the shipment a s
37、igned direct ship declaration. f. Provide with the shipment a signed/stamped SOC certifying that the article conforms to approved data. g. Provide with the shipment traceability to the customer purchase request. SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP9114A Page 7 of 9 h. Provide evidence with the shipment that accept
38、ance or inspection has been accomplished by the approved manufacturer or through a delegated inspection authority. i. When delegated inspection is used, provide with the shipment a statement that delegation of inspection authority has been granted by the approved manufacturer, and that the inspectio
39、n was performed on behalf of the approved manufacturer.4.2.5 Special Considerations for Foreign Customers An approved manufacturer must ensure the requirements of the importing country will be met, prior to authorizing direct shipment to a customer located in a foreign country. 4.3 Supplier 4.3.1 Re
40、cords The supplier shall maintain records of and make them available, upon request: a. Direct ship authorization by the approved manufacturer. b. Direct shipments made on the behalf of the approved manufacturer. 4.3.2 Compliance The supplier shall adhere to all approved manufacturer flow down requir
