Manage information | |||
Definition: |
Manage the information related to a PIF.
NOTE A Configuration and Data Management (CDM) activity, the major output is Assured Product and Support Information (APSI), which encompasses the entire configuration /support data. A subset of the APSI is the Configuration Status Record (CSR). The dynamic nature of the CDM activity, and its importance within the operation of a consistent configuration management process throughout the product life cycle requires a formal approval process to attain APSI status. All configuration documentation (requirements and design documentation) and associated operational information (operating procedures, parts catalogues, etc.) that comprise the CSR must be formally managed and approved. In essence, Approve, release and record is an activity that makes configuration and support documentation available for use, subjects it to Configuration Change Management (CCM) and formally maintains the APSI. |
