The European Space Components Information Exchange System (ESCIES) establish an information exchange system on component data with access available to all European users.

ESCIES aims to systematically collect and make available this data to the European space component community.

Large companies have built up databases through their role as a prime contractor. However, medium and small-scale companies, of which there are many in Europe, should have access to such tools and to this knowledge base as well.

The data and information to be considered as part of the system are those related to Procurement, Alerts, Radiation, Quality Assurance, control and usage of Electrical, Electronic and Electromechanical (EEE) Components for space projects.component standards (ESCC, EPPL etc.).

The ESCC EPPL (European Preferred Parts List) is divided into two parts:
– Part I components have sufficient data to permit their use without any special provision, on condition that they meet the application requirements.
– Part II components have minimum evaluation data demonstrating capability to satisfy Space-application requirements, but additional testing effort may be necessary to satisfy specific programme requirements.Last version link on ESCIES

For istance, ECSS-Q-ST-60 standard for Space Product Assurance defines the requirements for selection, control, procurement and usage of Electrical, Electronic and Electromechanical (EEE) Components for space projects.
This standard differentiates between three classes of components through three different sets of standardization requirements for three levels of trade-off between assurance and risk.

The highest assurance and lowest risk is provided by class 1 and the lowest assurance and highest risk by class 3.

Procurement costs are typically highest for class 1 and lowest for class 3.
