Aerospace Standard AS9100B

AS9100B is just one of the 20 plus standards in the AS9100 Family

AS9100B is 90% ISO 9001:2000 - Our Quality System Handbook explains all

If you are running several management systems, integrate now using our guide Integrated Management Systems

If you don't understand the principles upon which ISO 9001:2000 is based you will have great difficulty meeting the requirements of AS9100B

Converting a QMS using the process approach

Process Auditing

A new quality system standard has been drawn up by IAQG (The International Aerospace Quality Group) numbered AS9100:2001, version A and was released in August 2001 and version B in January 2004. The standard  embodies the complete text of ISO 9001:2000.  

There are no surprises. Some of the additions reinstate 1994 requirements in order to clarify the intent or scope. A lot of emphasis is placed on customer and regulator approval. Provision for FMEA, SPC and process capability studies is included in the form of a note rather than a requirement as in the automotive sector quality system requirements ISO/TS 16949:2002. In fact the difference between these two standards is now marginal. As with many of these 'ISO derivatives', the product is the discriminating factor not the management system standard.
