PD5344336 : Bridging the Gap: What You Need to Know about the Revised ARP4754B

Abstract

Content: This eLearning is a high-level introduction to the revised SAE standard ARP4754B and its guidelines of practice for aircraft and systems development. Learners will gain key insights only available from SAE, including how the new standard addresses the fundamental principles for the development of highly integrated aircraft systems. You’ll get a look into the revised standard which launched in December of 2023.

This two-hour offering introduces the critical concepts honed through decades of work to ensure you have what you need for both project risk reduction and certification, especially in light of current trends which feature deeper and greater integration among aircraft functions and systems. You’ll hear why this important standard was revised, what has changed, and what remains steadfast.

Learning Objectives

Content

By attending this seminar, you will be able to:

Describe the historical background of Development Assurance (DA) along with its primary goals and objectives within the system development life cycle
Utilize DA objectives from ARP4754B in planning and development, emphasizing safety, requirements capture, requirements validation, implementation verification, configuration management, and process assurance
Evaluate the interaction of DA processes with adjacent processes, such as Safety Assessment, software, complex electronic hardware, electromechanical hardware, system installations, and maintenance, as well as emerging areas like operations/Human Factors, Machine Learning, and cybersecurity
Develop strategies for coordinating DA aspects with certification authorities, arranging DA reviews, and reducing system integration risks, costly late system changes, and schedule impact throughout the development life cycle
Apply the DA process to greatly reduce the risk of system integration problems and costly late system changes and schedule impact
Assess the effectiveness of the DA process in establishing confidence and producing substantiation that the system performs its intended function safely for customers and certification purposes
Evaluate whether DA objectives are fully satisfied at the conclusion of a project

Who Should Attend

Content: Developed by a member of SAE’s S-18 committee developing ARP4754B and ARP4761A, this course is for the systems engineer, project managers, organization leaders of staff doing such work or other key personnel working on civil aircraft system design and development. This offering is a crisp, compelling overview of the new standard.

Both new and experienced safety professionals in OEMs and their suppliers who lead, develop, implement, and/or have responsibility for the effectiveness of safety systems should participate in this offering. This standard, and its companion ARP4761A have become expected for most of the world’s civil aircraft and some military aircraft, making them a necessity for practically all the aircraft and systems manufacturers worldwide.

This eLearning will facilitate success in the full course, C2301 ARP4754B Guidelines for Development of Civil Aircraft and Systems. ARP4754B should not live apart from ARP4761A. We recommend that you enroll in the eLearnings or full courses for each of the standards. There is special pricing on the standards for those who enroll in each of these courses:
ARP4754B Guidelines for Development of Civil Aircraft and Systems
ARP4761A Guidelines and Methods of Performing the Safety Assessment for Certification of Civil Aircraft

Prerequisites

Content: This course is part of a portfolio of four courses that support the SAE standards known as The Twin Pillars of Aviation Safety. If ARP4754B covers “what” is required, the second pillar, ARP4761A provides the “how.” For the best experience with this eLearning, participants should already have a basic understanding of ARP4754A and should have a copy of the revised ARP4754B.

For a deeper dive into the ARP4754B standard, SAE recommends the full instructor-led course to support their competency with the standards and its tools. The purchase of the full course includes the standard at a 50% discount: C2301 ARP4754B: Guidelines for Development of Civil Aircraft and Systems
