Article 13U.K.Requirements capture
1.In accordance with the overall objective of managing and mitigating identified risks to an acceptable level, the applicant shall, before submitting an application, undertake a requirements capture process which shall ensure that all the necessary requirements covering the design of the vehicle for its life cycle have been:
(a)identified properly;
(b)assigned to functions or subsystems or are addressed through conditions for use or other restrictions; and
(c)implemented and validated.
2.The requirements capture performed by the applicant shall in particular cover the following requirements:
(a)essential requirements for subsystems referred to in Article 3 and specified in Annex III to Directive (EU) 2016/797;
(b)technical compatibility of the subsystems within the vehicle;
(c)safe integration of the subsystems within the vehicle; and
(d)technical compatibility of the vehicle with the network in the area of use.
3.The risk management process set out in Annex I to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 402/2013(1) shall be used by the applicant as the methodology for requirements capture as regards the essential requirements ‘safety’ related to the vehicle and subsystems as well as safe integration between subsystems for aspects not covered by the TSIs and the national rules.
