    AIS/MAP QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

    1.0 PURPOSE

    This Advisory Circular (AC) provides guidance on the establishment and implementation of an
    AIS/MAP quality management system. The quality system adopted shall include at least the
    organization’s quality policy, a description of the organisation of the quality system, and allocation
    of duties and responsibilities.

    2.0 REFERENCES
    2.1. Regulation 39 of the Civil Aviation (Air Navigation Service) Regulations;
    2.2. Annex 15;
    2.3. ICAO Doc 9873 QMS Manual;
    2.4. Manual of Standards Part III (AIS/MAP).

    3.0 BACKGROUND

    One of the core functions of AIS/MAP is the provision of adequate, quality and timely aeronautical
    information /data necessary for the safety, regularity and efficiency of air navigation. To achieve
    this, the aeronautical information service provider shall receive and/or originate, collate or
    assemble, edit, format, publish/store and distribute aeronautical information/data concerning the
    area of jurisdiction. This calls for the establishment of a quality management system (QMS) within
    the organizational structure of the ANSP.

    CAA-AC-AIS 002A November 2009 Page 1 of 3


    4.0 GUIDANCE AND PROCEDURES
    4.1 General
    The QMS established shall be properly organized containing procedures, processes and resources
    necessary to implement quality management at each function stage as outlined in 3.1 above. The
    execution of such quality management shall be made demonstrable for each function stage, when
    required.
    4.2 As far as is practicable, the system should conform to the International Organization for
    Standardization (ISO) 9001 series of quality assurance standards.
    4.3 Development of the Quality System
    4.3.1 The AIS/MAP Provider shall maintain a quality management system containing procedures,
    processes at each function stage.
    4.3.2 Within the context of a quality system, the skills and the knowledge required for each
    function shall be identified and the entity’s personnel assigned to perform those functions shall be
    appropriately trained.
    4.3.3 The AIS/MAP personnel shall possess the skills and competencies to perform specific
    assigned functions and their appropriate records shall be maintained so that qualifications of
    personnel can be confirmed.
    4.3.4 A system of initial and periodic assessments shall be established that requires personnel to
    demonstrate the required skills and competencies. Periodic assessments of personnel shall be used
    as a means to detect and correct shortcomings.
    4.3.5 The purpose of the quality system shall be to ensure and build-up user-confidence that
    distributed aeronautical information/data meets the requirements for accuracy, resolution and
    integrity of data.
    4.3.6 The integrity of aeronautical data shall be maintained throughout the data process from
    survey/origin to distribution to the next intended user. Aeronautical data integrity requirements shall
    be based upon the potential risk resulting from the corruption of data and upon the use to which the
    data item is put.
    4.3.7 Consequently the classifications and data integrity levels specified in the manual of
    AIS/MAP standards shall apply.
    4.3.8 Aeronautical data quality requirements related to classification and data integrity shall be as
    specified in appendix 1 of the Manual of Standards Part III (AIS/MAP).
    4.3.9 Validation and verification procedures shall be established which ensure that quality
    requirements (accuracy, resolution, and integrity) and traceability of aeronautical data are met.
    4.3.10 Compliance with the quality system shall be demonstrated by an audit. If any non-
    conformity is identified, action shall be initiated to determine its cause and corrective action taken.
    All such non-conformities observed during audit and the remedial actions taken shall be
    documented.
    4.3.11 The main components of a Quality System will include;
    a) a Quality Policy; and
    b) a Quality Manual that outlines the quality system.

    4.4 Quality Policy
    The quality policy must show the distinctive characteristic of the ANSP in pursuing its objectives.
    The main aspects of the policy should include;
    a) a commitment to quality;
    b) commitment to meet customers’ expectations;
    c) a statements of responsibility and authority; and
    d) a commitment for continual improvement.

    4.5 Quality Manual


    A Quality Manual is a controlled document that forms the basis of the Quality System. The manual
    includes the details of:
    a) the scope of the quality management system;
    b) the documented procedures and references for all quality assurance activities within that
    system;
    c) a description of the sequence and interaction of the processes included in the Quality
    Management System;
    d) description of resources provided for the effective implementation of the quality system
