AS 9110

In essence the procedure for certification is the same as that for ISO 9001 (as the AS 9110 scheme is based on the prime document ISO 9001). However, there are some key differences regarding the certification process.

The minimum audit day requirements are more onerous due to the additional documentation to be checked. The man day allocations have been sanctioned by the IAQG.

Once your management system is fully documented and has been operating for at least 3 months you may then proceed with registration. The eight steps to certification are outlined below along with the costs:

Steps To AS 9110 Certification

Step 1

Complete the Enquiry / Application Form (Please click on the link to go to the form) then submit form to your local office.

Step 2

Once we have received your Enquiry / Application form we shall send you a Core Questionnaire and Aerospace Questionnaire for completion.

Step 3

On receipt of the completed questionnaires a formal quotation will be sent to you.

Step 4

If you find our quotation is acceptable, please sign it and return it to your local office.

Step 5

We will arrange and conduct an on-site document and readiness review. We will leave a copy of our report with any findings with you and if satisfactory arrange a mutually convenient date for the on-site audit.

Step 6

We conduct an on-site audit once it is agreed that you are ready to move forward. We produce a report on the findings plus recommendations. Unsuccessful audits may require a re-audit.

Step 7

The Certificate of Registration is issued, once all points, if any, have been addressed from the on-site audit. All AS 9110 clients must be registered on the IAQG OASIS database (the fee for this is $500) at certificate issue.

Step 8

Surveillance visits are performed at least once a year but may be more frequent, depending on the size of the company.

Notes: An informal (but chargeable) pre-audit visit may be requested to determine readiness for formal assessment.

For further details please contact your local United Registrar of Systems office.
