The aerospace industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by increasing system complexity, heightened safety and cybersecurity requirements, and evolving regulatory landscapes.
Existing standards, such as ARP 4754B, DO-178C, and DO-254, provide critical guidelines for system, software, and hardware development but they lack an overarching and cohesive framework that integrates safety, cybersecurity, and project management.
This white paper proposes AeroSPICE to address these gaps by creating a unified approach to aerospace development based on the structure of ISO/IEC 330xx standards. We propose a minimum set of required processes for development and draft the details of two selected processes, which are “Aircraft Functions and Requirements Development” and “Project Management”.
This proposal outlines the key elements of AeroSPICE, explores its alignment with existing aerospace regulations, and defines the next steps for industry-wide adoption – addressing the needs of OEMs, suppliers, regulators, and maintenance organizations alike.
