FAA FO 8120.2F CHG 1 PDF

Purpose of This Order.

This order contains guidance related to—

Production approvals and certificate management (CM) of manufacturers of type-certificated products, technical standard order articles, and replacement and modification parts, to ensure fair and uniform administration of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR).

The Certificate Management Information System (CMIS). In those cases in which activities and work processes are automated by CMIS, aviation safety inspectors, aviation safety engineers, and flight test pilots must use CMIS to perform that work. In the event a manual activity or work process described in this order becomes automated in CMIS, the use of CMIS to perform that activity or work process will take precedence.
