L-3 Crestview Aerospace (L-3 CA) maintains a proven Quality Management System (QMS) that is AS9100 Rev B certified by NQA for airframe component fabrication/assembly and aircraft maintenance, modification and modernization. In 2011 we will implement our transition plan to upgrade our certification to AS9100 Rev C.
Our initial certification occurred in March 2006, with our most recent audit in November 2010 yielding zero findings. Each year we work hard to audit ourselves internally to self identify and incorporate improvement opportunities in different areas of the business.
L-3 CA also maintains 4 NADCAP (National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program) Certifications for special processes.
AS7109 for Chemical Processing
AS7110 for Welding/Brazing (Supplier Merit 24 month extended accreditation)
