AS9100 is the international quality management standard for the aerospace, aviation, and defense industry. It's built on ISO 9001 but adds requirements specific to the sector, including risk management, configuration management, and product safety.
Not necessarily as a separate step, AS9100 certification includes full ISO 9001 conformance built into the same standard and audit, so most organizations pursue AS9100 directly rather than certifying to ISO 9001 first and then adding AS9100 later.
The current revision is AS9100D. It's periodically updated by the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) to reflect evolving industry and regulatory requirements — always confirm you're working from the current revision before starting implementation.
Aerospace and defense manufacturers, suppliers, and their sub-tier vendors are typically required by prime contractors (like Boeing, Airbus, or defense agencies) to hold AS9100 certification as a condition of being an approved supplier.
Because AS9100 has more extensive requirements than standard ISO 9001 (risk management, configuration control, first article inspection processes), implementation for a business starting from scratch often takes 4–8 months depending on complexity and current process maturity.
Yes, from gap analysis and documentation development through internal audits and certification audit readiness, covering the full path to a certified quality management system.
