The objective of this diploma thesis is to perform a complete risk assessment of an insulation blanket’s trial installation for an Airbus A320 aircraft. Technical and functional requirements have been described in order to understand the changes operated on the blanket. Through the study of non-conformities and graphs depicting deliverables versus time, quality issues and time delays are tracked in the best possible way in order to identify risks. Appropriate risk tables and matrix were chosen as a frame for this assessment. Risks associated with the trial installation of the new insulation blankets were then assessed, prioritized according to their criticality and placed automatically on a risk matrix using a VBA program. Mitigationactions were finally proposed and validated to achieve the main objective of this risk assessment: to annul the occurrence and to decline the impact of all potential unforeseen turns of event described in this report.
