Grant, renew and revoke authorizations

Granting an authorization is a legal act: it says this person may perform and release this work. It has to rest on verified evidence — every time.

A compliance manager granting an authorization on verified evidence.

The work behind it

This is the governance core of the CMM role: checking that every required qualification and competence is present and valid, formally granting the authorization, keeping it alive while its basis holds — and revoking it, promptly and demonstrably, when the basis is gone.

Every step must be defensible later: who granted what, when, on which evidence. And revocation is the harder half — the person must know immediately, and downstream systems must stop accepting their release.

Where it eats time today

Evidence assembly per decision

Checking a grant means collecting proofs from lists, folders and inboxes — for every single authorization.

Paper certificates as the medium

A revoked scope means re-issuing documents and trusting they replace the old ones everywhere.

Revocation doesn't reach the shop floor

Between the decision and the systems where work is released lies a manual gap.

  • Authorization Certifying Staff CAT B A320 V2500 revoked automatically; the expired Human Factors qualification is marked red among the required qualifications.

    Automatic revokement

    When a qualification expires, the authorization is revoked automatically.

    Each authorization is linked to the qualifications it requires. If one of them expires, for example Human Factors, the system revokes the authorization automatically on that date, without anyone having to step in. You see at once which qualification caused it, and the authorization becomes valid again as soon as the qualification is renewed.
