EASA has published a transition guide intended to support Part-145 approved maintenance organisations and competent authorities in the implementation of the requirements, including Safety Management System (SMS), as introduced in Regulation (EU) 2021/1963. The guide includes milestones of the SMS transition process and highlight of the novelties introduced by this Regulation.
This document is supplemented by the example of EASA when acting as Competent Authority for the Foreign Part-145 Organisation, with an information letter and a draft of the MOE User Guide providing detailed guidance on the developments needed for the Maintenance Organisation Exposition.
