AS9100 Aerospace Quality Certification
Aerospace primes don’t just ask for AS9100 — they audit your team to it. We build systems that hold up.
Aerospace-grade quality, certified.
AS9100 is ISO 9001 plus more than 100 aerospace-specific requirements: configuration management, project management, risk management, special processes, counterfeit-parts prevention, and more. Most aerospace primes — Boeing, Lockheed, Airbus, GE Aerospace — require it of their suppliers.
Certification is granted by an aerospace-accredited registrar. Surveillance is more rigorous than ISO 9001, and findings have real consequences for prime relationships.
Who needs AS9100?
Aerospace suppliers
- Tier 1, 2, 3 manufacturers
- Special-process providers
- MROs and overhaul shops
Companies entering aerospace
- Adjacent industries chasing aerospace contracts
- Foreign suppliers selling into US primes
- Companies branching from defense or industrial
Companies with ISO 9001
- ISO 9001 certified firms expanding into aerospace
- Companies needing combined audits
- Suppliers transitioning from internal-only audits
Our approach to AS9100
The same four-step path that has put 300+ audits in the win column.
- 1
Aerospace gap analysis
ISO 9001 baseline plus aerospace-specific requirements: configuration, risk, counterfeit-parts, project management.
- 2
Implementation
Build out the aerospace-specific processes (configuration control, project management, risk management) on top of your quality foundation.
- 3
Internal audit (AS9101)
Internal audit using the official AS9101 methodology — the way the registrar will audit you.
- 4
Certification audit
On-site support with your aerospace-accredited registrar through stage-1, stage-2, and finding closure.
