AS 9100 is the Quality Systems Aerospace Model for Quality Assurance in Design, Development, Production, Installation and Servicing.
The international aerospace industry realized the necessity to supplement the quality system model to satisfy internal, government, and regulatory requirements applicable to the aerospace industry-requirements that ISO9000, as a generic standard, was never designed to satisfy.
The AS/EN 9100 certification was introduced in 1997 by the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) to encourage international quality, safety and technology standards in air transport. The certification can be applied to all areas in aviation like design and manufacture of equipment, airport and airline operations, aircraft accessory supply, spares supply and maintenance. The AS/EN 9100 certification enables an organization to demonstrate its commitment to quality, safety and reliability.
The purpose of AS9100 is to
• Standardize Aerospace quality expectations on a global level.
• Achieve improvements in quality and reduce costs.
• Add provisions for regulatory requirements.
• Capture aerospace supplements agreed to at an international level.
Benefits of certification to the AS9100 standard:
• Provision of access to the best practices of the aerospace industry
• Demonstration of commitment to deliver quality products and services
• Improvement in new market / new customer prospects on a worldwide basis
• Improved customer satisfaction
• Reduction of organizational waste, inefficiencies and defects
