Liebherr's Toulouse-based center of excellence of aerospace air management systems has been officially recognised by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) as a Design Organisation Approval (DOA) certified company.

This certification demonstrates the compliance of Liebherr-Aerospace's processes with the requirements of European regulation "PART 21" which establishes the certification rules for companies that design and manufacture aircraft systems and aircraft parts.

The DOA is a mandatory certification for every commercial aircraft designer and is also available to major system manufacturers such as Liebherr-Aerospace. This certification will enable Liebherr-Aerospace in Toulouse to validate its own repair solutions. It also allows Liebherr to be entrusted with a higher level of delegation from air framer customers in the management of product development.

This important achievement enables Liebherr-Aerospace to increase its contribution to efficient developments of major aircraft systems.
