WHAT IS AS 9100 (AEROSPACE STANDARD 9100) ?

AS9100 (Aerospace Standard 9100) is an internationally recognized Quality Management System (QMS) standard developed specifically for the aerospace, aviation, and defense industries. Based on ISO 9001 and maintained by the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG), AS9100 includes additional industry-specific requirements focused on safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance. It applies to organizations involved in the design, development, manufacturing, and servicing of aerospace products, helping ensure consistent quality and performance across the supply chain.

The standard emphasizes risk-based thinking, product safety, prevention of unauthorized or substandard parts, and strong supplier management. AS9100 promotes continual improvement and aligns with other ISO standards such as ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO 27001, allowing for an integrated management system. Achieving AS9100 certification demonstrates a company’s commitment to quality, customer satisfaction, and compliance with global aerospace requirements strengthening its reputation and competitiveness in the market.
