Does anyone have experience implementing a tiered QMS?
We are a small company, but have a broad customer base (prototype, commercial, to aerospace). We are ISO9001 certified, but some of our aerospace customers are asking for AS9100. From a business perspective, it may not make sense to apply all of the additional requirements to our commercial prototype level products.
Other than making two separate business units, is there a way we could specify that a project is AS or ISO at its inception and then work to that standard as applicable? Would the company as a whole still be able to be considered AS9100 certified?
I see some cons to this, mostly in maintaining multiple rules and having confusion/inconsistency for people performing work.
Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!
