European foreword
This document (EN 9117:2017) has been prepared by the Aerospace and Defence Industries
Association of Europe - Standardization (ASD-STAN).
After enquiries and votes carried out in accordance with the rules of this Association, this Standard has
received the approval of the National Associations and the Official Services of the member countries of
ASD, prior to its presentation to CEN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2018, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn at the latest by April 2018.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta,
Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,
Turkey and the United Kingdom.
Rationale
The process for Delegated Product Release Verification (DPRV) varies from one organization to another.
Implementation of a standard process reduces the risk of escapes in the aviation, space, and defence
industry supply chain, when the organization’s product release verification has been delegated to a
supplier.
Foreword
To assure customer satisfaction, the aviation, space, and defence 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 objective. 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. Furthermore, suppliers and processors, within the
industry, face the challenge of delivering product to multiple customers having varying quality
expectations and requirements.
The aviation, space, and defence 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 includes representation from companies in the Americas,
Asia / Pacific, and Europe. This document defines the minimum requirements for delegation of product
release to a supplier within the aviation, space, and defence industry. The establishment of common
requirements should result in improved quality, safety, and reduced costs by minimizing customer
specific requirements and the resultant variation inherent in these multiple expectations. While primarily
developed for the aviation, space, and defence industry, this standard can also be used in other industry
sectors where a DPRV process may be of benefit.
1 Scope
1.1 General
This standard specifies requirements for DPRV to establish common product / service requirements for
use at all levels of the supply chain. This standard shall apply when an organization elects to delegate
product release verification by contractual flow down to their supplier (reference EN 9100 and
EN 9110 standards); to perform product acceptance on their behalf.
The delegating organization shall use this standard as the baseline for establishing a DPRV process,
although they may include additional contract requirements to meet their specific needs.
1.2 Application
This standard is intended for use by organizations that produce and/or provide aviation, space, and
defence products, including organizations providing maintenance, spare parts, materials, and services.
It is emphasized that the requirements specified in this standard are complementary, not alternative, to
contractual and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. Should there be a conflict between
the requirements of this standard and applicable contractual, statutory, or regulatory requirements, the
latter shall take precedence.
