NASA Memo "Encourages" AS9100 Certification for Existing and Potential Suppliers

The following is excerpts from the NASA Memo:

October 7, 2005

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has released a memo to all current and potential suppliers encouraging compliance and certification to AS9100: The statement indicates that NASA is on the lookout for AS9100 qualified suppliers, saying, "Manufacturers, suppliers and service organizations who regard quality management as a key business driver are highly desired as NASA hardware and service providers."

The NASA letter goes on to "expect" AS9110 conformance for aerospace maintenance shops, and AS9120 of stockist distributors.

AS9100 compliance assessment and registration coupled with ISO 9001 registration is highly encouraged.

Manufacturers, suppliers and service organizations who regard quality management as a key business driver are highly desired as NASA hardware and service providers. Independent AS9100 and ISO 9001:2000 registration provides objective evidence of a commitment to quality, safety and reliability. NASA expects conformance to AS9100 and to the applicable derivatives such as AS9110 for Repair and Overhaul facilities and AS9120 for Pass-through Aerospace Distributors. Certification to the AS9100 though the Industry Controlled Other Party (ICOP) process is "strongly encouraged."
