Why AS/EN 9100 Is More Demanding Than ISO 9001
AS/EN 9100 extends ISO 9001 with aerospace-specific requirements that go significantly deeper into risk management, configuration management and first article inspection than most organisations anticipate. Organisations that approach AS/EN 9100 certification with ISO 9001 preparation intensity consistently encounter Stage 2 findings in areas where AS/EN 9100 goes beyond the ISO 9001 baseline.
