A Structured Framework for Quality Management
A Structured Framework for Quality Management

AS 9100 provides a structured framework for managing quality across all processes involved in producing and delivering products and services to the aviation, space, and defense industries.

Who we work with
Small companies getting AS9100 certification for the first time

If you don’t have established processes or your resources are limited, we will take care of everything:

  • Set up core operational processes: orders, invoices, production control;
  • Assist with creating your website, preparing documentation, and ensuring the system is easy to maintain;
  • Eliminate unnecessary steps, keeping only what is essential for working with AS9100 and your business.

Result: an efficient system your team can maintain without hiring additional staff.

Medium and large companies with complex processes

Clients come to us when:

  • Procedures raise questions from auditors;
  • The company wants to reduce the workload on the team;
  • Audits need to be completed quickly to meet contract deadlines;
  • The company has received multiple findings during an audit that must be addressed promptly.

We optimize your system so it is truly used in practice, prevents recurring audit issues, and simplifies processes rather than complicating them.

What clients say
“Our company was in a situation where we needed AS9100 to secure work from a very large customer.”

In 2017, we retained FY Consulting at the recommendation of our registrar, to transition our ISO9001/AS9100 systems to their latest revisions. Frank and his team not only helped us make this transition seamlessly, but also streamlined our quality management system to reduce complexity and maintenance efforts. Ever since 2017, they have been helping us to maintain our certifications.

Ron Panasiewicz did an amazing job for us over the past nearly five years- auditing both USA Tolerance Rings (IATF 16949:2016) and Sullivan Steel Service (AS9100D, AS9120B). He was excellent in so many ways- his approach, delivery, thoroughness, and availability to our schedule. That is why we continued with FY Consulting for all those years.

Your new system will work efficiently for years
Implement effective supplier management
Implement effective supplier management

Many companies struggle to meet the standard’s requirements, establish clear processes, set up controls, and identify and respond to critical risks. In the aerospace industry, every component must be tested, verified, and reliable. Even the smallest part from an unreliable supplier can pose safety risks.

We create or optimize a supplier evaluation, monitoring, and control system:

  • Build clear procedures that comply with AS9100;
  • Train your team on practical supplier management;
  • Implement control levels that reduce risks to a minimum.
Develop a contamination prevention system for components
Develop a contamination prevention system for components

In aerospace, any contamination, dust, material fragments, or metal shavings, can cause mechanical weaknesses, electronic failures, or component malfunction during flight. This is one of the most critical risks for part manufacturers.

  • We train personnel in proper handling and inspection techniques;
  • Set up procedures that minimize the risk of foreign objects entering the product;
  • Create reporting and workplace cleanliness monitoring systems.
Set up documentation and evidence collection
Set up documentation and evidence collection

FAA-regulated suppliers must follow strict federal recordkeeping rules under 14 CFR and FAA Advisory Circulars, often requiring retention of maintenance, certification, and testing records for 2–5 years or longer depending on the record type. Non-FAA regulated suppliers, by contrast, follow general business, ISO, or contractual requirements, which are less prescriptive and allow more flexibility in retention periods.

  • We optimize document flow and make it easy to navigate;
  • Set up systems to quickly locate required records;
  • Train teams on which records are essential and which are unnecessary;
  • Help create procedures that pass FAA audits.
The new management system will allow your business to operate faster and more efficiently, without additional personnel costs
Compliance with external regulatory requirements: FAA and more

This is one of the most complex and bureaucratic aspects of AS9100. Companies working with metal, plastic, glass, or electronic components often fall under additional FAA requirements. AS9100 requires considering all applicable regulatory requirements, verifying them, implementing multiple levels of control for each critical process, documenting all exceptions, and obtaining approvals at various levels. This creates a substantial bureaucratic layer that can be difficult to navigate.

  • We identify which regulatory requirements truly apply to your company.
  • Filter out hundreds of rules that are not relevant.
  • Help implement the requirements that are mandatory.
  • Train your staff to work in compliance with FAA.
  • Provide tools to maintain compliance for years to come.
We help you navigate hundreds of requirements, understand what applies to your business and what doesn’t. We focus only on what you actually need and don’t waste resources on unnecessary rules.

We’ll prepare you for certification fast

Many of our clients turn to us when important contracts and partnerships depend on certification, and time is limited. We understand this and work as quickly and efficiently as possible. We streamline the process so that certification is achieved on the first attempt, without placing unnecessary burden on your team.

9 to 12 weeks

The average timeframe for preparing a company of up to 20 employees

4 weeks

We have even prepared a startup manufacturing company who supported the aerospace industry to attain AS9100 certification in 4 weeks.

We receive 25% of our fee only after successful certification. The final payment is made only once you have your certificate in hand.
Rescue in cases where a new auditor finds many nonconformities
Rescue in cases where a new auditor finds many nonconformities

Sometimes companies work for years with lenient auditors, only to face a stricter specialist who produces a long list of issues. We analyze each finding, identify root causes, remove unnecessary processes, and design a system that any auditor will accept.

Additionally, we maintain a list of recommended auditors we’ve worked with for years and understand what matters most to them. This expertise helps us achieve certification smoothly, without nonconformities.
