AIA/NAS 412-2013 pdf download FOREIGN OBJECT DAMAGE/FOREIGN OBJECT DEBRIS (FOD) PREVENTION
1 .1 Scope This standard establishes general practices and standard terms for the prevention of Foreign Object Damage (FOD) to aerospace products and operating environments. Aerospace products include aircraft, missiles, launch vehicles, unmanned aerospace systems, satellites, engines, manufactured parts associated with aerospace products, etc. Operating environments include fabrication, manufacturing, assembly, test, hangars, ramp, airport operations, launch, flight, etc.
1 .2 Purpose This standard provides guidance for the prevention of Foreign Object Damage to aerospace products being designed, developed, manufactured, assembled, operated, repaired, modified, refurbished and maintained.
This standard is designed to reduce the risk from Foreign Objects /Foreign Object Debris to products or systems through the elimination of foreign objects. The objective of this standard is to promote aerospace safety and the preservation of private and national assets. An effective FOD Prevention Program identifies potential problems, mitigates risks, promotes awareness, provides effective employee training, and uses industry best practices and lessons learned for continued improvement. Users are encouraged to apply the contents of this standard to suit their particular product or program.

3. DEFINITIONS
Definitions as they apply to this standard.
3.1 5S Methodology/Lean Manufacturing. A workplace organization method that describes how to organize work space for efficiency and effectiveness by identifying and storing the items used, maintaining the area and items, and sustaining the new order.
3.2 Aerodrome. A defined area on land or water (including any buildings, installations, and equipment) intended to be used wholly or in part for the arrival, departure, and surface movement of aircraft.
3.3 Best Practice. A process or technique that achieves the standard or requirement and is extremely effective.
3.4 Consumables. Supplies provided to workers (for example, hardware, glue, paint, sealant, rags, sandpaper, brushes, applicators), and/or items that are expected to be consumed or destroyed during the course of work performed. Material Consumables are items that are generally thrown away after each use (for example, paper towels, ear plugs, gloves, respirator cartridges, acid brushes, cotton swabs, abrasives, tape, safety wire, sanding discs, sealant, and knife blades).
3.5 Control. To reduce or prevent the unintentional spread of, to verify, or regulate.
3.6 Expendables. Commodities or items used during the manufacturing process that after extended usage or reconditioning become non-functional. (for example, Plastic knives, apex tips, insertion/removal tools, clecos, clamps, rivet sets, drill bits, reamers; end mills, counter sinks, counter bores, and some safety supplies).
3.7 Foreign Object (FO). A substance or article alien to a product or system that could potentially cause Foreign Object Damage (FOD) if not removed or controlled and allowed to migrate onto the product, system, or introduced into an operational environment.
3.8 Foreign Object Damage (FOD). Any damage attributed to foreign object debris that may be expressed in physical or economic terms, which may or may not degrade the product’s required safety and/or performance characteristics.
