Useful answers

AS9100. Your questions answered.

How does AS9100 differ from ISO 9001?

AS9100 addresses the aerospace sector and adds sector-specific quality requirements. An existing ISO 9001 system can provide a starting point, but the additional requirements still need to be assessed.

Do we need AS9100, AS9110 or AS9120?

The choice depends on your activities. AS9100 addresses aerospace organisations, AS9110 aviation maintenance and AS9120 aerospace distribution. We can help review the appropriate scope with your certification body.

Can you support an existing certified business?

Yes. We can discuss internal audits, assessment preparation and ongoing consultancy as well as preparation for a first certificate.

What affects the cost of AS9100 support?

Your activities, sites, existing system and preparation needs determine the consultancy scope. We provide a tailored quote. Budget separately for independent assessment and any scheme fees.

How long does preparation for AS9100 take?

Timing depends on your starting point, the work required, availability of evidence and assessment dates. A gap analysis helps establish a realistic plan.

Your business. Your achievement.

From understanding the requirements to preparing for independent assessment, our team helps you build a working management system and confidence in your next step.
