AS9101 is an international standard, published by SAE, and includes the audit requirements for Aerospace and Defence organizations. It helps you plan and conduct audits of the AS9100, AS9110 and AS9120 standards.

It has recently been updated so that there is more focus on effectiveness and not just conformity. It also states that

Every process should be audited to determine:

  • Is the process identified and appropriately defined?
  • Are responsibilities defined?
  • Are procedures implemented and maintained?
  • Is the process achieving effective results?

New Terms with related forms in the appendices

  • Containment
  • OASIS
  • Major Nonconformity
  • Minor Nonconformity
  • Nonconformity Report (NCR)
  • Objective Evidence Record (OER)
  • Process Effectiveness Assessment Report (PEAR)

These changes have been implemented to align the standard with the updates to AS9100 Rev C (2009), and the new requirements of ISO 17021.
