                     Reference             SECTION A ORGANISATION REQUIREMENTS
             CAMO.A.005              Scope
                                      This Section establishes the requirements to be met by an organisation to qualify for the issue or
                                      continuation of a certificate for the management of continuing airworthiness of an aircraft and of
                                      components for installation.
             CAMO.A.115              Application for an organisation certificate
                                          (a) The application for a certificate or an amendment to an existing certificate in accordance
                                              with this Annex shall be made in a form and manner established by the CAA, taking into
                                              account the applicable requirements of Annex I (Part-M), Annex Vb (Part-ML) and this
                                              Annex.
                                          (b) Applicants for an initial certificate pursuant to this Annex shall provide the CAA with:
                                              (1)  the results of a pre-audit performed by the organisation against the applicable
                                                 requirements provided for in Annex I (Part-M), Annex Vb (Part-ML) and this Annex;
                                              (2)  documentation demonstrating how they will comply with the requirements
                                                 established in this Regulation.
                                              Such documentation shall include, as provided for in point CAMO.A.130, a procedure
                                              describing how changes not requiring prior approval will be managed and notified to the
                                              CAA.
             CAMO.A.115 AMC1         Application for an organisation certificate
                                      An application should be made on an CAA Form 2 (Appendix I to AMC1 CAMO.A.115) or an equivalent
                                      form that is acceptable to the CAA.
                                      CAA Form 2 is also valid for application for other types of organisations pursuant to Regulation (EU)
                                      No 1321/2014. Organisations that apply for several certificates may do so using a single CAA Form 2.
             CAMO.A.115 AMC2         Application for an organisation certificate
                                      GENERAL
                                          (a) Draft documents should be submitted at the earliest opportunity so that assessment of
                                              the application can begin. The initial certification or approval of changes cannot take place
                                              until the CAA has received the completed documents.
                                          (b) This information, including the results of the pre-audit specified in point CAMO.A.115(b)(1),
                                              will enable the CAA to conduct its assessment in order to determine the volume of
                                              certification and oversight work that is necessary, and the locations where it will be carried
                                              out.
                                          (c) The intent of the internal pre-audit referred to in point CAMO.A.115(b)(1) is to ensure that
                                              the organisation has internally verified its compliance with the Regulation. This should
                                              allow the organisation to demonstrate to the CAA the extent to which the applicable
                                              requirements are complied with, and to provide assurance that the organisation
                                              management system is established to a level that is sufficient to perform continuing
                                              airworthiness management activities.
             CAMO.A.115(b) GM1       Application for an organisation certificate
                                      PROCEDURE FOR CHANGES NOT REQUIRING PRIOR APPROVAL
                                      The procedure for changes not requiring prior approval should include, as mentioned in point
                                      CAMO.A.300(a)(11)(iv), both the scope of those changes and how they will be managed and
                                      notified.
                                      For applicants for an initial certificate, the scope may be limited by the CAA for the first period of
                                      operation. An extension of such a limited scope may be considered later; see GM1 CAMO.A.130.

                                                 subcontracted to carry out continuing airworthiness management tasks, when such
                                                 arrangement exists.
                                          (b) Upon request by the CAA, the CAMO should be able to demonstrate that arrangements
                                              are in place for all base and scheduled line maintenance for an appropriate period of time.

                                          (a) Alternative means of compliance to the AMC adopted by the CAA may be used by an
                                              organisation to establish compliance with Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 and its delegated
