Having a well-structured organisational review programme ensures that all areas of operations are covered at appropriate intervals. It also institutionalises the process so that a change in personnel does not adversely affect the program.
The accountable manager is responsible for the organisational review program. He may formally delegate this responsibility to one of the
M.A.606
(b) persons. An organisational review program might consist of developing simplified checklist/s and a schedule (monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual) for accomplishing checklist items. The review should at least include a written statement acknowledging the completion of the checklist items and the signature of the person conducting the organisational review. Under these conditions, occasional independent oversight of checklist development and accomplishment should be considered.

Section 2 CAR M
To be effective, the results of the organisational review program should be submitted to the accountable manager on a regular basis. The accountable manager should analyse the organisational review results to verify that satisfactory corrective actions have been implemented.
c. Follow up process
A follow up process is needed to verify whether findings are isolated instances or actual symptoms of policy, procedural, or managerial problems. A follow up process should include scheduled evaluations, follow-up evaluations as necessary and special evaluations when trends are identified.
d. A plan for scheduling organisational reviews
It is essential for a maintenance organisation's organisational review program to include a defined schedule of activities. This planned schedule will serve to verify that the organisational review program is comprehensive, well controlled, and timely. A schedule also provides a vehicle for keeping management and the entire organisation informed. The scheduling process should also be dynamic and allow for special organisational reviews. In addition, follow-up organisational reviews should be scheduled as necessary.
All key areas should be reviewed at least once each year
e. Corrective Action Plan
Corrective action plans should be developed in response to findings. The corrective action plans should be monitored to verify their timely and effective implementation.
f. Records
The organisational reviews should be documented in reports and other appropriate records.
The organisational review program files should include: scheduled organisational review reports; special organisational review reports, including the trends or other reasons for scheduling a special evaluation; corrective action plans; and results of follow-up evaluations.
The maintenance organisation should maintain and secure these records and provide them upon DGCA request.
3. Training and experience of evaluators.
The evaluators that are used by the maintenance organisation should have a perfect knowledge of the maintenance organisation manual. General experience only is usually insufficient therefore evaluators

should be trained on the techniques that can be used for organisational
reviews such as regulations, auditing, interview techniques, evaluation
principles, and system analysis techniques.
Recurrent training - A programme for continuation training should be
developed. It should provide for evaluators, at regular intervals, to attend
technical training and specific review training to gain first-hand
knowledge of new developments.
