AIA NAS411

This NAS411 was created by the Aerospace Industries Association as an industry standard to be applied to United States government acquisition of systems, system components, associated support items, and facilities. It applies to all acquisition phases; e.g.., Concept Exploration, Demonstration and Validation, Engineering and Manufacturing Development, Production and Deployment, Operations and Support, and Disposition.

The Hazardous Materials Management Program (HMMP) is the contractor's plan to assure appropriate consideration is given to the elimination/reduction of hazardous materials, and to the proper control of hazardous materials that are not eliminated, for system(s), system components, and associated support items throughout all phases of the system life cycle. The emphasis is on eliminating or reducing hazardous materials early in the design of processes and system products.

This NAS411 shall only be applicable to those contract deliverables that are specifically cited elsewhere in the contract as being subject to this standard.

Purpose.

The purpose of the HMMP is to influence the system and product design process to eliminate, reduce or minimize hazardous materials, and control hazardous materials in all acquisition phases of a program for the protection of human health and the environment. This is to be accomplished while minimizing system cost and risk to system performance.
