management efforts.
11.2.5. Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC): Establishes and maintains the Air Force's
capability to support System Safety efforts of non-Space Program Managers.
11.2.5.1. Ensures product centers, logistics centers and laboratories document safety
criteria and hazards identified during their efforts. Provides support as required to ensure
the responsible organizations include Safety hazard analysis with any development or
modification to be evaluated, assessed or tested within AFMC and the using command.
11.2.5.2. Ensures program offices and the lead and using commands coordinate when
modifications or changes in system use affect safety.
11.2.5.3. Evaluates mishaps and mishap trends to identify deficiencies that engineers and
managers may have overlooked or incorrectly analyzed during system development.
Correct oversights and update ―lessons learned‖ information.
11.2.5.4. Keeps HQ AFSC informed of the programmatic changes of the on-going and
future acquisition and sustainment programs. Specifically, changes in program managers,
System Safety managers and program status (i.e., acquisition or sustainment and
