A SSPP should provide the following information:
· Details of the system safety manager to program manager relationship and
accountability.
· Identification of the organization(s) directly responsible for accomplishing each
subtask and company policies, procedures, and/or controls governing the conduct
of each subtask.
· A description of methods to be used in implementation of each SSPP task
including a breakout of task implementation responsibilities by organizational
component discipline, functional area, or any planned subcontractor activity.
· A composite listing of applicable company policies, procedures, and controls, by
title, number, and release date.
· A chart showing the contractor's program organization identifying the
organizational element assigned responsibility and authority for implementing the
SSP.
· Identification of the interfaces of the system safety organization and other
organizations, including cross-references to applicable sections of other program
plans.
· A clearly detailed method by which problems encountered in the implementation of
the SSP and requirements can be brought to the attention of the contractor
program manager.
· Procedures to be used to assure resolution of identified unacceptable risks.
· The internal controls for the proper and timely identification and implementation
of safety requirements affecting system design, operational resources, and
personnel.
· A schedule of the system safety activities and a milestone chart showing
relationships of the system safety activities with other program tasks and events.
Tasks and data inputs and outputs which correspond to the program milestones
should be identified. Milestones are controlled by program master schedule and
internal operations directives.
· Staffing levels required for successful completion of contractually required tasks.
· A description of the contractor's program and functional system safety
organization.

See Chapter 5 for a more detailed discussion of SSPP contents and the SSPP template. The ISSPP should
be considered a special case of the SSPP that involves multiple major subcontractors that must be
integrated by the Prime Contractor/Integration Contractor.
Contractor's System Safety Program Management
An SSPP is only as good as the contractor's management commitment to systems safety. The FAA should
not dictate prospective (or contracted) contractor's organizational structures. An assessment can be made
of such organizations to determine if the contractor can meet the Government's objectives. Criteria include:
· A centralized accident risk management authority, as delegated from the contractor
program manager. It must maintain a continuous overview of the technical and planning
aspects of the total program.
· An experienced system safety manager directly accountable to the program manager for
the conduct and effectiveness of all contracted safety effort for the entire program.
· A single point of contact for the FAA interface with all contractor internal program
elements, and other program associate or subcontractors for safety-related matters. The
contractor system safety manager maintains liaison with Government sources to obtain:
- Safety data as a design aid to prevent repetitive design or procedural deficiencies.
- Information on operational systems which are similar to the system under this contract
and should be studied for past safety problems and their solutions.
- Authority for access of personnel to nonproprietary information on accident and
failure causes and preventive measures in possession of government agencies and
contractors involved with those systems.
· Approval authority for critical program documentation and all items related to safety
contained in the contract data requirements list (CDRL).
· Internal approval authority and technical coordination on waiver/deviations to the
contractually imposed system safety requirements, as defined.
· Internal audits of safety program activities, as defined, and support FAA audits, when
requested.
· Participation in program level status meetings where safety should be a topic of discussion.
Provide the contractor program manager the status of the SSP and open action items.
