The new version of BS EN 9100:2009 now covers the Aerospace, Space & Defence industries the family of quality standards also referred to AS 9100 rev D, has now been released following a review by the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG).
The purpose of the various standards that go to make up the family of standards is to provide the requirements for a quality management system (QMS), which if correctly implemented help an organisation to control its processes in order to achieve objectives including improved quality, schedule and cost performance.
As the family of standard is based on the international quality standard ISO 9001, the new version is a result of the ISO 9001 revision that took place in 2008 and incorporates those changes as well as those agreed by the IAQG.
