[Avionics Today 02-22-2016] InTech Aerospace, an aviation technical services firm that works with commercial and government airplane interiors and components, has achieved full certification to AS-9110 aerospace quality standards. The company will use the certification to grow services for commercial airlines fleets, including overhaul, repair and retrofit for fixed-wing planes.
The AS-9110 aerospace standard is based on AS9100 and the fundamental principles of ISO-9000 and other quality management doctrines, but adds specific requirements that are critical for the maintenance of commercial, private, and military aircraft. This standard includes additional criteria for Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul facilities (MRO’s) serving the aircraft industry. Areas of emphasis in the standard include detecting and preventing counterfeit and suspect unapproved parts, human factors (recognizing human factors that affect workers), safety management systems, technical data, project management and risk management.
