Overview

SIST EN 9300-012:2014 is a European Standard developed by CEN to define the reference process for "Ingest" in the aerospace domain under the LOTAR (Long Term Archiving and Retrieval) framework. This standard focuses on the systematic transfer of digital technical product documentation - including 3D models, CAD files, and PDM (Product Data Management) data - from the producer's working environment into a secure archive for long-term preservation and retrieval.

The process ensures that the submitted digital content is converted into an archival format (typically STEP), validated, and packaged into an Archival Information Package (AIP). The objective is to maintain the integrity, usability, and provenance of the product data over extended periods, accommodating changing technology landscapes.

Key Topics

  • Ingest Process Definition
    The ingest process covers the receipt, quality assurance, validation, and archival packaging of Submission Information Packages (SIP) delivered by producers to the archive.

  • Data Conversion and Validation
    Core to the standard is the conversion of source content into the standardized STEP format, followed by comprehensive validation and verification to ensure that the archival copy preserves the original design intent and meets domain-specific criteria.

  • Submission and Confirmation Workflow

    • Producers submit SIP with approved and fixed content for archiving.
    • The archive performs quality checks such as file integrity (using CRCs, checksums) and format compliance.
    • Successful transfers result in generation of the AIP and confirmation back to producers.
    • Rejected or erroneous submissions trigger detailed error handling and resubmission protocols.
  • Preservation Planning
    The standard promotes ongoing monitoring of the archiving environment, technology changes, and standards evolution to ensure long-term accessibility.

  • Roles and Responsibilities
    The archive implements functions aligned with the OAIS reference model (administration, data storage, access control), while producers are responsible for submitting compliant and approved data.

Applications

SIST EN 9300-012:2014 applies primarily within the aerospace and defense industries, facilitating:

  • Long-Term Archiving of Aerospace Digital Assets
    Critical 3D CAD models, product documentation, and PDM data that require preservation for regulatory, maintenance, or lifecycle management purposes.

  • Data Integrity and Provenance Assurance
    Ensuring that archived technical product data remains authentic and retrievable regardless of evolving software and hardware environments.

  • Cross-Organizational Data Exchange
    Supporting exchanges between aerospace suppliers, engineering teams, and archives by standardizing submission formats and quality expectations.

  • Cost and Risk Reduction
    Integrating archiving validation with engineering approval steps to reduce rework and avoid costly errors prior to manufacturing or certification.

  • Compliance with Aerospace Regulatory Frameworks
    Enabling aerospace companies to meet standards-driven requirements for product documentation management.

Related Standards

SIST EN 9300-012:2014 is part of a comprehensive LOTAR series and references influential standards, including:

  • EN 9300-003 – Fundamentals and concepts for LOTAR processes
  • EN 9300-007 – Terms and definitions related to LOTAR archival practice
  • EN 9300-010 – Overall data flow overview for long-term archiving
  • ISO 14721:2003 (OAIS) – Reference model for Open Archival Information Systems, foundational for archive functions applicable in EN 9300-012

These related standards collectively define the scope, terminology, data modeling, and workflow structures for sustainable aerospace digital product archiving.
