A principle factor in the performance and prosperity of an organisation is the quality of its products or services. Performance measures are at the very heart of an organisations continued growth.
There is a continuing trend towards more stringent customer expectations with regard to quality and reliability within the aerospace and defence sector. Accompanying this trend is the high profile and importance placed on AS9100 to drive consistent quality and reliability through the supply chain.
The training programme is aimed at business managers and management representatives responsible for development, implementation or continued compliance against AS 9100 (and 9110 / 9120) and elements of Nadcap (testing) with consideration to aerospace. Delegates should have an understanding and working knowledge of quality management systems (from manufacturing, service, research and or the laboratory environment).
AS9100 is the adopted QMS (Quality Management System) Standard for the aerospace and defence sector.
In support of business process improvement and compliance, we’re offering an intense 1 or 2 day programme for the development and implementation of AS9100: 2016 (Rev D) in conjunction with Midlands Aerospace Alliance.
AS9100 was released in October 1999 by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) and the European Association of Aerospace Industries. AS9100 replaces the earlier AS9000 and fully incorporates the entirety of the current version of ISO 9001 with the additional and specific requirements relating to critical component - in-process quality control, materials traceability testing, inspection competence and product safety issues. Major aerospace producers and suppliers worldwide require accredited certification against AS9100 as prerequisite to contract.
AS9100 is the adopted aerospace Quality Management System Standard.
The objective of this training programme is to practically explain the AS9100 :2016 requirements and the revised assessment approach, as adopted by the certification body assessors. The training programme will explain how to achieve effective compliance against the AS9100 :2016 by selected revisions to existing procedural obligations – ensuring a smooth transition from ISO 9001 to AS9100 and or the continued improvement of existing management systems.
In summary, the course sessions include:
AS9100 certification allows an organisation to:
