Certification Liaison Process

The following table contains a summary of the certification liaison process objectives from DO-178B, including the objective, applicable DO-178B reference sections, and software levels applicable to the objective. The table also describes the potential impact to the process when using Model-Based Design.

Table A-10: Certification Liaison Process

	Objective	Sections	Software Levels	Model-Based Design Process Impact
1	Communication and understanding between the applicant and the certification authority is established.	9.0	A, B, C, D	No impact
2	The means of compliance is proposed and agreement with the Plan for Software Aspects of Certification is obtained.	9.1	A, B, C, D	No impact
3	Compliance substantiation is provided.	9.2	A, B, C, D	No impact

The following sections describe in more detail the potential impact for each certification liaison process objective when using Model-Based Design, if applicable, as compared to traditional development.

Communication and Understanding Between the Applicant and the Certification Authority Is Established

Establishing communication and understanding between the applicant and the certification authority is the same as for traditional projects.
