In August 2017, Omega Engineering Services became one of the first UK companies to be audited to the new Rev D standard of AS9100.
This revised version of the Aerospace Quality Management System encompasses ISO 9001:2015 and adds the QMS requirements for aerospace and defence industries (approx. 105 additional requirements). Some of the significant changes include the High-Level Structure (HSL) change. Also, there is the addition of context, interested-party expectations, and risk-based thinking as three of the biggest changes in the standard.
In 2014, Omega Engineering Services added the AS9100 Rev C accreditation to its portfolio with a clear 100% external audit and has since held the certification.
Amie Hewlett, QHSE officer, comnmented: “In August 2017 Omega Engineering Services took the step of being one of the first companies in the UK to be audited to the new Rev D standard, which included 6 ‘man’ days of audits across the whole site encompassing design, manufacturing, purchasing and sales.
“Following a demanding audit schedule, we are pleased to announce that Omega Engineering Services is fully approved to AS9100 Rev D”.”
