Bournemouth, United Kingdom – GA Telesis UK announced that it successfully passed its audit by QMI and its quality system is now certified to AS9120:2002; the highest level of organizational and quality assurance certification standard available for aerospace companies.

Based on ISO 9001, AS9120 includes additional aerospace-specific require ments that are identified within the body of the standard. This new standard enables organizations to easily iden tify where core aerospace requirements exist within ISO 9001. AS9120 requires control of “key characteristics” as iden tified internally within the company or externally by a customer. AS9120 is based on AS9100 and adds specific requirements that are relevant for stockists or pass-through distributors in the aerospace industry. This standard is applicable for organizations that resell, distribute, and warehouse parts found in aircraft and other aerospace components.

“We are now the only company in our sector that maintains this level of standard at all of our distribution centers,” said David Daughters, Managing Director of GA Telesis UK. “Our AS9120:2002 drives us to exceed industry standards and provide our customers with the highest quality service in the industry,” he added.
