 No. 1 - PMS

Detail Element
There are many items to be included / linked to the 4.1.2/4.1.3/
planned maintenance system, such as defect reporting 4.1.4/4.2.4/
system, spare parts inventory, work instruction, risk 4.3.1/4A.2.2
assessment, maintenance record, guidance on remote
diagnostics etc.

• Most of the best practices are already in the TMSA2 except element
4.1.2 and 4.2.4 (new)
• Other than Risk Assessment, most of this items should be available in
the current PMS.
• PMS Work Order may need to be enhanced to incorporate the links and
functions (if not available).

 No. 4 – Compare Audit Result

Detail Element
The company compares its own inspection results with 12.3.2
the results of inspections conducted by third parties.

 Other Matters

There are quite substantial numbers of KPI’s of stage 3

& 4 have moved down to the lower stage of the
respective elements, this will alter company’s self-
assessment rating.

• What is the impact of these changes to the

members?
• Would members intend to share and benchmark
their TMSA rating?
