What is Engineering Data Governance and Compliance? 

Engineering Data Governance and Compliance refers to the secure, traceable, and policy-driven management of technical data—across systems, suppliers, and government partners. It ensures the right stakeholders get the right data, at the right time, with the right protections in place.

For regulated manufacturers, this means enabling trusted collaboration and ensuring compliance with standards like CUI, FAA Type Certification, MIL-STD-31000, DoDI 5000.97, and DoDI 5200.48—along with the ability to prove it at every step of the product lifecycle.

Disconnected Data Governance Delays Certification

 Modern manufacturers and defense contractors face increasing pressure from regulations such as MIL-STD-31000, DoD Instruction 5000.97 on Digital Engineering, and FAA Type Certification. To succeed in their mission, manufacturers must deliver secure, traceable, compliant data - but legacy tools fall short. Here's why:

Manual Puzzle Risk

Manual TDP Creation is Slow and Risky

Engineers spend 62% of their time finding, packaging, sharing, and explaining authoritative technical data. Then something changes and they have to do it all over again. 

Document that is bad

Missing or Inconsistent Markings

CUI, CTI, and Export Control labels are often applied inconsistently — leading to rework and compliance risks. 

Security Risk No Control

Collaboration Tools Lack Control

Shared drives and generic portals can’t ensure that the right people have access to the right data — securely. 

Missed Deadline

Delayed Certification and Supplier Onboarding

Without trusted, easy to interpret data, FAA, DoD and other approvals stall, and suppliers are left guessing.

Deliver interpretable, compliant Type Design data that supports FAA and DoD requirements - every time.

Compliance Alignment with Government & Industry Standards

Cyber-Security

Anark helps ensure compliance with key regulations and standards including:

  • FAA Type Certification and Type Design data traceability
  • MIL-STD-31000 for TDP formatting and structure
  • DoDI 5000.97 for Digital Engineering governance
  • DoDI 5200.48 for safeguarding and dissemination of CUI
  • Other Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Controlled Technical Information (CTI) use cases

BETA Technologies: FAA Compliance at Startup Speed

 FAA Type Certification demands Design Data Packages (DDPs) that the FAA can access, interpret, and maintain—without requiring proprietary CAD software or PLM systems. BETA uses Anark to  deliver secure, FAA-compliant Type Design technical data packages (TDPs).

Learn how BETA delivers compliant data and goes faster with:

Universally accessible 3D TDPs with MBD, PMI, parts lists, and all views—on a single sheet
FAA-ready packages that are CAD-neutral, accurate, and future-proof
Automation that saves up to 5 engineering hours per part

“We’re setting a higher bar with 3D TDPs from Anark— a scalable, future-ready approach—rather than falling back to 2D drawings so we continue to move at the pace of a startup.
— Rick Florence, BETA Technologies
