Aerospace Quality Management Systems
What is AS 9100?
The aerospace industry developed the first international quality management standard specifically for the industry. It has been published in Europe as EN 9100, in the United States as AS9100 and in the Far East as SJAC 9100. This document represents impressive efforts by the aerospace industry to produce a single standard for use across the global aerospace community.
Where did it come from?
The new aerospace standard is based on the well known foundation of ISO 9001. It does not attempt to replace this standard but builds upon it with specific additional requirements necessary to address civil/military aviation and space needs. Other contributing sources are:
- The preceding documents AS 9000 and TS 157
- Industry regulatory requirements
- Government customer standards
- Contributions from national and international stakeholders
There were a number of motivators influencing the introduction of the standard; key among these is data provided by the various aviation regulatory agencies expressing the opinion that the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are exercising insufficient control of the supplier base.
To address this shortcoming, the industry co-operated in producing AS9100, the first international quality systems standard specifically developed by and for the aerospace industry. It is the first single standard available for use across the global aerospace community. It includes requirements necessary to address both civil and military aviation and aerospace needs. The industry-developed common quality management system requirements within the standard will ensure a consistency of approach throughout the supply chain, both nationally and internationally.
