The present document: " is based on internationally-recognized concepts; " proposes organisational principles and implementation processes for Configuration Management from both viewpoints: programme and company , with emphasis on the programme viewpoint; " deals with verifications, reviews and audits tending towards the validation of the configuration information consistency. It details the principles described in EN 9223-100. It is up to each programme responsible person to define the necessary details of application and tailoring in the Configuration Management plan. Important remark: Configuration audit doesn t be confused with quality audit (for detailed information, see 4.1). This document does not deal with configuration system audits (quality audit) deployed within the scope of a programme. These audits stem from quality audits as defined in EN ISO 9001 (process conformity or efficiency audits).
