Purpose of This Order. This order establishes that the National Computer Aided Engineering Graphics (CAEG) Program has the responsibility for establishing and maintaining the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) CAEG Facility Library for all National Airspace System (NAS) National Standard, Project, and Facility Drawings. The database repository utilizes CAEG software suite Electronic Drawing Management System (EDMS).

a. This order also provides information to locate guidance and procedures on how drawings are to be prepared, submitted, and retrieved through the facility library. These activities include the processing and cataloging of the data and providing for its secure storage and access.

b. The information contained within the EDMS complies with FAA Order 1375.1, Information/Data Management. Information contained within the EDMS contains sensitive information and must follow FAA Order 1600.75, Protecting Sensitive Unclassified Information (SUI).

c. This order prescribes the preparation and use of the CAEG software suite and the use of the current version of FAA-STD-002, FAA Standard Engineering Drawing Preparation and Support, as the tools used in the creation of engineering drawings for the NAS buildings and facilities, creation of construction drawings, and as-built drawings. This order covers the creation of new engineering drawings, the use of engineering drawing standards, access to current electronic engineering drawings, and policy changes.
