Hello All
I have a question. The company I work for is currently AS9100 certified. We have another comany that is international that we use for manufacturing that is owed by us. They currently do not have an established QMS. The President of the company I work for would like for me to develope and implement a QMS for them to be certified to.

My question is what is the correct standard to go for?

He does not want them to be included on our cert being they are a completely seperate company. He wants them to stand on their own. The ultimate goal in the end is to have the company build product and ship directly from that facility to customers.

The will not do any design. They do not do receiving inspections being that the component parts they used are inspected by our facility. They only purchase flux down there because it is cheaper for them to. That's the only purchasing they do. They will not do any sales.

I appriciate any information provided. Thank you in advance.:thanx:

ISO 9001, which is a basic QMS standard. Should this company need AS9100 in the future, everything they've done to comply with ISO 9001 will be worthy since most industry specific standards use ISO 9001 as a baseline requirement.

It appears that this site has been tought as a "foundry model".
Before embarking in a certification process, I would suggest to make a "pros" and "cons" to apply .
If the site is not so large in terms of resource, you could implement a QMS, based upon ISO 9001, without being certified, but only compliant to. After a period of observation and searching for mature times, than you could apply to the certification.
I would like to undersand if there is a precise need for the certification.
In case of immediate ISO certification, you should start from a gap analysis vs ISO 9001 clauses.

If you read the OP's post his President made it a requirement for certification.......I think that's pretty precise!
