This Common Interface Control Plan (CICP) establishes the methodology for developing, controlling, and managing the technical interfaces between and within systems. An interface defines the interaction at a defined point between entities to achieve a combined system capability. A common interface defines the shared interaction between multiple systems on either side of the interface.
The document is not intended to directly control any other aspects of program management, such as matters of contractual, financial, or those of an intellectual property rights nature. Members in the interface control process include: procurement authorities, design authorities, and other related agencies as defined in the specific System Interface Control Plan (SICP). For the purposes of this plan, only the terms Procuring Organization and Producing Organization will be used. This plan is predicated upon formal agreements between participating organizations that provide:
1
Authority to participate in Interface Control Working Group (ICWG) and decision-making processes.
2
Primary interface control, interface problem resolution, and interface impact assessments through the ICWG.
3
Higher level interface management under the purview of the appellate process as defined by this document and in the SICP.
Rationale
This standard was developed by SAE International. It defines a generic interface control plan that would be used to govern a process to manage an interface between system components. This standard includes guidance for the relationship between the various involved parties, the documents required to manage the data set and the associated processes. It is intended for use as a template to prepare the system specific system interface control plan.
Revision A was generated to update the document with experience gained during the first application. It increases the flexibility in cases where an enterprise decides to participate in the interface control process.
The SAE AS-1 Aircraft Systems & Systems Integration committee addresses all facets of aircraft avionics systems design, maintenance, and in-service experience. It reviews and develops specifications for stores interface, validation requirements, systems integration, mission store validation plans and media terminal design. Also addressed are system test requirements, architecture, security and 1553 data bus standards. The group is comprised of three subcommittees dedicated to creating, preparing, and maintaining all relevant specifications, standards, and requirements for aircraft avionics systems. These subcommittees include:
AS-1A Avionics Networks
AS-1B Aircraft-Store Integration
AS-1C Avionic Subsystems
Participants in the SAE AS-1 committee include OEMs, suppliers, aircraft avionics equipment companies, consulting firms, government and others across the aerospace and defense industries.
* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.

Search Tips: Search Operators:AND, OR, NOT; Wild Cards; Using Quotes
SAE MOBILUS® Search Tips
Please note: All terms not contained within quotes, will be evaluated using the OR operator. This means that your search results will contain all results that contain ANY of the entered terms.
AND, OR, NOT
SAE MOBILUS supports the use of the AND, OR and NOT BOOLEAN operators ONLY function with the Advanced Search.
Wild Cards
Using the asterisk, ( * ) allows you to search for a partial word. For example, entering a keyword search of aero* will search for any word beginning with aero.
Using the question mark, ( ? ) allows you to search for a word with a single character wildcard. For example, searching for t?re would match both tire and tyre
Using Quotes
Words in double quotes " " are treated as a phrase. Conducting a search for "heat model" will return all results in which the exact phrase "heat model" is found, while "heat modeling" would NOT be included.
A term combined with a phrase will be joined with an OR operator.
Searching for Standards
When searching for a standard please use the entire Document Number assigned, which includes the abbreviation. A space can be used, or omitted between the abbreviation and number.
