5. Design & Document Your AS9100 Quality Management System
Design and document your AS9100 Quality Manual and Procedures. The biggest portion of the project is looking at your current processes and redesigning them to address all the requirements of the standard. Once you have modified or developed processes to meet the standard, you will need to control those processes. Documenting the processes as Quality System procedures is part of this control.
6. Use & Improve Your AS9100 QMS
Once your system is developed and documented, employees will follow the procedures, collect records, and make improvements to the system. For approximately three months or more, your organization will run the QMS, collecting records.
7. Audit the AS9100 QMS Performance
Use and improve your QMS – Is it working? You will conduct internal audits to see how your system is working and to improve it. This prepares you for an Audit by a Registrar.
