EN 9100 7.5.1.4 Control of work transferred outside the organization's facilities

[Angelika]

7.5.1.4 requires:
When planning to temporarily transfer work to a location outside the organization's facilities, the organization shall define the process to control and validate the quality of the work.

I have difficulty in understanding this requirement. Can anybody give me an example when this can occur in a Design or Production Organization?

Since there is a separate EN 9110 for Maintenance Organziations, I don't think we are talking of Maintenance, do you?

No, not maintenance. It applies to temporary outsourcing of your normal production work, which might occur when orders exceed your facility's capacity, or when your own production facilities become temporarily unavailable.
