For ODAs

Designation Authority and Continuing Compliance

An ODA is a license to act on the FAA's behalf. The price of admission is a Procedures Manual the FAA accepts; the cost of staying admitted is a continuous demonstration that you actually follow it. CIQ gives ODA holders the workspace to do both without drowning in paper.

Setting up an ODA — or expanding one to new authorities — requires a Procedures Manual that maps every authorized function to a defined process, qualified personnel, and an audit trail. CIQ provides the structure for the manual, the project execution it governs, and the evidence that ties them together.

What this supports

  • Initial ODA application and Procedures Manual development
  • Authority expansion (TC, STC, PMA, TSO, MRA, repair design approval)
  • Unit Member qualifications, training, and currency
  • Project authorization, execution, and FAA coordination
  • ODA Administrator and Lead Engineer workflows
Procedures Manual that stays in sync with how work is actually done
Faster authority expansions through clean, evidence-backed submissions
Unit Member qualifications tracked continuously
