EUROPEAN Coordination MoC
EASCG/EUSCG goals harmonised implementation in support of the regulatory frame timely availability streamline relevant standardisation activities in Europe new standards arising from the deployment and implementation process performance-based regulation
EA/USCG Tasks & Deliverables develop, monitor and maintain an overarching European standardisation and regulatory RDP facilitate the sharing of work among the SDOs, avoiding the risk of overlaps and gaps monitor all relevant processes, resource availability and other related risks and issues provide a forum to manage specific issues and resolution of conflicts advise the EC and EASA ad other regulators on standardisation matters and standardisation issues
