Phase 01

Supplier Qualification & Selection

Know, before you award the work, whether a supplier can really meet your technical, quality and delivery requirements.

Overview

Supplier Qualification & Selection

Choosing the wrong supplier is one of the most expensive mistakes in an aerospace programme. Our qualification and selection service replaces assumptions with evidence: our auditors visit current and prospective suppliers, assess what they can actually deliver, and give you objective data to base your sourcing decisions on.

We can run a single assessment or manage your full supplier-approval programme, fitting into your existing processes and approved-supplier lists. Our in-region teams work face-to-face with suppliers across Asia-Pacific, protecting your interests on the ground.

Our Services

What's included

Capability & Capacity Assessments

We evaluate a supplier's technical skills, equipment, facilities and workforce to confirm it can sustain your current and future demand, and give it a maturity score you can track over time.

Compliance Audits

We identify gaps against aerospace and customer requirements, covering the quality system, special processes such as NDT, materials, personnel qualification and security.

Risk Assessments & Analysis

We find and rank the threats to quality, delivery and compliance, including business-continuity and sub-tier risks, and agree a practical mitigation plan.

System & Process Audits

We check that a supplier's quality management system, records and manufacturing processes can consistently produce conforming parts and accept your flowed-down requirements.
