Stay up-to-date with the latest HOS regulations and maintain compliance to protect your business and drivers. 🚛📋 #SafetyFirst #HOSCompliance

A good FMCSA rating ensures that the carrier is compliant with the safety and fitness standards mentioned in 49 CFR 385, Appendix B. We give the responsibility only to the carriers who are inspected & rated as satisfactory by FMCSA. 🌐 https://lnkd.in/fKmHamq 📧 info@unifylogisticsolutions.com #UnifyLogisticSolutions #UnifyGroup #LogisticsSolutions #FMCSA #TruckingSafety #CarrierCompliance #TransportationStandards #LogisticsManagement #TruckingRegulations #SafetyFirst #FleetManagement #TruckingIndustry

We were doing some Functional Safety & Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) analysis. If we go with Wikipedia, ASIL refers both to risk and to risk-dependent requirements. ASIL = Severity x Exposure x Controllability. Severity (1=light & moderate, 2 = severe/life threatening, 3 = fatal) Exposure (1 = very low, 2 = low, 3 = Medium, 4 = High) Controllability (1 = Simple, 2 = Normal, 3 = Difficult/uncontrollable) What would be those numbers and the level classification for this picture? What would be the severity? What would be the exposure (risk probability)? Is it controllable (can be avoided/mitigated)? Would we be considering this under ASIL A/B/C/D ? Well, this is not an automotive use case :P #automotive #FuSa #ASIL #iso26262 #IEC61508 #ISO13849 #RiskAnalysis

A counterfeit part also termed ‘suspected unapproved part SUP’, is defined as an unauthorized material, component, or part that is falsely represented as an original or authorized manufacturer's product.

The aerospace industry considers having a counterfeit parts control plan to be a best practice Counterfeit Parts Control Plan outlines the organization's risk-based approach to identifying, mitigating, disposing of, detecting, avoiding, and reporting suspected or confirmed counterfeit goods. The plan should identify the roles and responsibilities as related to each function. Key functions, again depending on the organization’s size and location within the supply chain, include Contracts, Engineering, Materials Management & Logistics, Quality, and Supplier Management & Procurement. A formal requirement for a documented counterfeit parts control plan is in industry standards such as AS5553, AS6081, AS6496, and IEC TC 62268 series related to electronic parts. For material, AS 6174 requires a material authenticity assurance plan. #CounterfeitParts #AerospaceSafety #QualityAssurance #SupplyChainRisk #PartControlPlan #AS5553 #AS6081 #AS6496 #IECTC62268 #AS6174 #AviationSafety #AerospaceQuality #SupplierManagement #MaterielAuthenticity #FAA #AerospaceIndustry
