Introduction
Industry established the IAQG, with representatives from Aviation, Space, and Defence (ASD)
companies in the Americas, Asia/Pacific, and Europe, to implement initiatives that make significant
improvements in quality and reductions in cost throughout the value stream.
The IAQG developed a global scheme for the acceptance and recognition of audits performed by
Certification Bodies (CBs), using the EN 9100 series standards and taking into account the schemes
already in use or under development in the various IAQG sectors, including the application of a:
rd
— 3 party audit certification scheme with specific ASD requirements, under the guidance and
oversight of the ASD industry; and
— harmonized approach for the purpose of improving the quality and process control throughout the
entire supply chain.
Confidence and reliance in the audit process depend on the development and provision of auditor
training, robust auditor authentication, and competence of those conducting the audits. Competence is
based on the demonstration of personal attributes, and the ability to apply knowledge and skills gained
through education, training, and experience.
