Configuration management

A systematic organisational, technical and administrative process put in place throughout the lifecycle of a vehicle and/or vehicle type to ensure that the consistency of the documentation and the traceability of the changes are established and maintained so that: (a) requirements from relevant Union law and national rules are met; (b) changes are controlled and documented either in the technical files or in the file accompanying the issued authorisation; (c) information and data is kept current and accurate; (d) relevant parties are informed of changes, as required.
