Rob Stockham: Mark - Comments I can use please! Issues On Software And Firmware Development under IEC 61508 will also ensure that issues of competency, tools, techniques and configuration and change management will all be implemented Is the manufacturer in control of all parts of the software development, what are the implication of embedded ‘COTS’ modules and ‘SOUP’ within the software. Has any ‘competent’ third party reviewed the software development, together with code analysis and what are the findings? Has the software been developed to a standard (IEC 61508 - Part 3)? This will provide rigorous and documented procedures for definition, specification, safety requirements, function, performance,testing, validation and verification, etc How complex is the software, in IEC 61511and Clause 3.2.81 defines 3 levels of software - FPL Fixed Programming Language - Trip Amplifier, Transmitter - LVL - Limited Variability Language - typical of a PLC - FVL - Full Variability Language - C++, Java, etc Existing products - is ‘Proven in Use’ claimed for the software, can it be justified? How long in manufacture, how many units sold, application profiles, how was the software written, software failure and ‘bug’ fix documentation?

Achieved Accredited Certification by SIRA for our product development processes to IEC 61508 Part 1 and Part 2, under the CASS scheme for Functional Safety Capability Assessment Investment in tools, training and resources to undertake FMEDA work on our products Working with our customers on real safety related applications and to provide practical solutions Involvement with IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 seminars, conferences and committees to increase our understanding of what is required Over 35 years experience in ‘high reliability instrument has built a robust basis for the requirements of safety related instrumentation

The user and the manufacturer need to come together at an early stage to define requirements and participate in the product development process Open communication and understanding of the development of the project, to minimise uncertainties in hardware, software, testing and implementation. Complete involvement by the manufacturer in the life cycle of the component with the user, with feedback on performance and failures to go back into the development and life cycle process This degree of commitment and involvement will present and challenge to all manufacturers, but especially those who may be involved in general commercial instrumentation.

Consider the whole application and life cycle for the requirement Consider the competency and experience of the potential manufacturer (Do they understand the particular and CHALLENGING requirements of the nuclear industry) Get involved with the potential manufacturer at an early stage If required develop ‘partnering’ arrangements to develop specific components or solutions to application requirements.
