Section 2 Framework structure

2.1 Goal based requirements

2.1.1 The Submarine Assurance Framework comprises a hierarchical set of Goal based requirements to be satisfied in the design, construction or maintenance of a submarine as relevant, supported by planning and verification processes by which LR will provide independent assurance that those requirements have been satisfied.

2.1.2 The Goal based requirements of the framework are consistent with those of the NSubC, however unlike the NSubC, the framework also defines the planning and verification processes which may be used to demonstrate that the Goal based requirements of the framework have been satisfied.

2.1.3 Consistency between the Goal based requirements of the framework and the Goal based requirements of the NSubC allows compliance with the NSubC to be readily demonstrated.
