| I | Inspection | Inspection of documents such as design drawings or verification based on similarity data | Inspection- Drawings, design review- Bill of materials- Technical Description/specification/publication- Material and process- Standards or maintenance manual |
| Verification using various certification results at the component level | Qualification - Declaration of design and performance- Software qualification- Technical standard order (TSO)- Inspection on equipment- Test reports on equipment |
| A | Analysis | Verification of load, stress, performance, electrical load, etc. through theoretical or numerical analysis | - Calculations(loads, stress, performance, etc.)- Theoretical checks- Functional analysis- Electrical loads analysis- Weight and center of gravity- Reliability/maintainability/safety analysis |
| D | Demonstration | Verification of operational performance through various non-measurement tests performed during the operation process of the satellite model (EM, QM, etc.) or demonstration on a satellite or payload mock-up or verification through simulation | - Maintainability demonstration- Demonstration on mock-up- Inspection on spacecraft or system- Demonstration on simulation bench (dynamic demo)- Flight test simulator |
| T | Test | Validate results with testing at the part level, prototype or development model level. | - Laboratory test reports- Bench test reports- ETB test reports- Ground test reports |
