What Is AS9120 Certification?

Aerospace Distributor Standard

When we first heard about AS9120 certification, we saw how important it is for any distributor in aerospace. This certification is a worldwide quality standard. It gives strict rules for how aerospace distributors handle, store, and track electronic parts. The main goal is to keep every part safe and easy to trace from when it arrives to when it goes to the customer.

AS9120 certification is needed to become an approved distributor for big aerospace companies. It is also needed to sell aerospace parts and materials to defense contractors. This standard helps stop fake parts and keeps good relationships with customers.

Based on ISO 9001

AS9120 certification uses the ISO 9001 quality system as a base. ISO 9001 covers general quality steps, but AS9120 adds more rules for aerospace. These rules focus on traceability, following laws, and stopping fake parts. We think these extra rules really help the aerospace supply chain. They make sure every part can be traced back to where it was made.

• AS9120 has all ISO 9001 rules.

• It adds tougher rules for traceability.

• The standard needs strong ways to stop fake parts.

• Companies must follow all laws to get certified.

Key Requirements

To get AS9120 certification, We had to make sure our work met many important rules. The audit was detailed and included checking documents and visiting our site. Here are some main rules for aerospace electronics suppliers:

Requirement Type	Description
Traceability	Special rules for tracing parts from when they come in to when they go out.
Evidence of Conformance	Certain papers needed by distributors to show proof of conformance.
Splitting	Rules for splitting batches and keeping them up to specifications.

The certification process starts with a first check, then two audit steps. After passing, the company gets certified. Every year, there are checks, and every three years, recertification is needed. We think this ongoing process helps us keep high standards and give reliable products to our customers.

Why AS9120 Matters for Aerospace and Defense

Counterfeit Risk Reduction

Fake parts are a big problem in aerospace and defense. AS9120 certification helps stop this problem. It uses strong rules for tracking and checking quality. We follow these rules to watch every electronic part from the maker to the customer. This makes it easy to check where each part comes from. We use set steps to keep fake parts out of the supply chain. These steps help stop failures and keep people safe, which is very important in aerospace.

Aspect	Description
Traceability	Needs careful tracking of parts from maker to customer, making it easier to check where they came from.
Reduced Risk of Counterfeit	Focuses on stopping fake parts from getting into the supply chain, which helps prevent failures.
Risk Reduction	Uses set steps for quality problems to lower the chance of parts failing and keep people safe.

We feel sure about the parts us give because of AS9120 certification. This trust is very important for defense contractors and aerospace groups who need good parts.

Supply Chain Reliability

Having a strong supply chain is very important in aerospace and defense. AS9120 certification makes tracking and paperwork better. This helps the supply chain stay strong. We write down and track every electronic part for aerospace. This makes sure the parts are real and follow the rules. The standard makes product quality and tracking better. It also helps me keep track of parts and help customers faster.

• AS9120 certification means all aerospace electronic parts are tracked and written down.

• It makes sure the parts are real and follow the rules.

• The standard is made to make product quality and tracking better.

These steps help manage risks and stop problems. When we give parts that meet AS9120 rules, We customers can keep working without big delays. Aerospace and defense groups want AS9120 certification because it shows we care about quality and following rules. Many groups will not use suppliers who do not have this certification. This shows how important it is for suppliers. AS9120B says distributors must have a written quality system. This makes sure aerospace items are handled and tracked the right way.

Competitive Advantage

AS9120 certification helps we stand out in the aerospace and defense supply chain. The certification makes paperwork easier and audits faster. Better supplier work means happier customers. When we get AS9120 certification, We show we am a leader and care about quality.

"AS9120 Certification is proof that NewPower Worldwide wants to be a leader in giving out electronic parts to aerospace, military, and commercial groups," said Carleton Dufoe, NewPower's CEO. He added, "NewPower Worldwide has had ISO 9001 since 2016 and adding AS9120 and AS6081 makes us different by showing we care about quality, always getting better, and making customers happy."

We are committed to maintaining high standards and continuously striving for excellence. Our AS9120 certification provides us with a competitive edge, helping us earn the trust of clients in the aerospace and defense sectors. Streamlined documentation processes, more efficient auditing, and optimized supplier management collectively enable us to forge long-term partnerships built on mutual trust.

• Easier paperwork

• Faster audits and checks

• Better supplier work

We know AS9120 certification is more than just a rule. It is a sign of doing great work. It helps we give good solutions for aerospace and defense.
