Getting AS9100 Certified in Dayton, Ohio (OH)
AS9100 is an international specification that describes specific criteria for the aircraft, space, and security industry within an aerospace quality control framework that needs to be met before applying a quality management program focused on ISO 9001. ISO 9001 is a quality control program framework intended to include the resources required for enhancing efficiency and consumer service in all forms of organizations. The present revision of the standard is AS9100 Revision D, released in September 2016.
All manufacturers of aerospace and suppliers worldwide are encouraged to get AS9100 certification. AS9100 was developed for use by organizations designing, developing, or providing products and services for aviation, defense, and space. Like ISO 9001, AS9100 is process-based and highlights the satisfaction of internal, governmental, and regulatory needs.
The International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) has prepared AS9100, and certifications are provided by certified information systems compliance bodies such as The Registrar Service.
