AS9100, configuration control and export rules - in one system

The aerospace and space supply chain runs on AS9100, on configuration control that has to hold for decades, and on export rules that carry legal weight. ComplyTrain gives a supplier one system for the quality, the requirements flow-down and the controlled documentation the primes - and the regulators - expect.

What makes this hard

  • AS9100 is the price of the supply chain

    Primes and space agencies expect AS9100 - an ISO 9001 quality system plus aviation, space and defence additions - before they will place work. Without it you are not on the list.

  • Requirements flow down, and so does the blame

    A prime’s contract cascades requirements to every tier. A sub-supplier’s configuration or first-article gap becomes the prime’s nonconformity - and yours.

  • Configuration must hold for the life of the programme

    Hardware is maintained for decades. The exact definition of what you built, and every change since, has to be traceable long after the people who made it have moved on.

  • Export control is a legal minefield

    ITAR, EAR and EU dual-use rules govern what technical data goes where and to whom. A wrong disclosure is not a quality finding - it is a legal exposure.

The frameworks this industry is held to

  • ISO 9001

    ISO 9001 compliance software

    ISO 9001 is the international standard for quality management systems. ComplyTrain is structured around its clause structure, so your QMS is audit-ready by design.

    ComplyTrain fully supports this standard

  • AQAP 2110

    AQAP 2110 compliance software

    AQAP 2110 is NATO’s quality assurance requirement for design, development and production. It builds on ISO 9001, and ComplyTrain gives you the framework to manage the additional contractual requirements it adds.

    ComplyTrain fully supports this standard

  • ISO 27001

    ISO 27001 compliance software

    ISO 27001 is the standard for an information security management system (ISMS). ComplyTrain gives you the framework to build, run and evidence your ISMS - the certificate stays yours to earn.

    ComplyTrain fully supports this standard

  • ISO 31000

    ISO 31000 risk management software

    ISO 31000 is the international guidance for managing risk. ComplyTrain’s risk management is structured around its process, so risk is a living framework across the organisation, not a spreadsheet reviewed once a year.

How ComplyTrain answers it

  • Quality Management

    The ISO 9001 quality system AS9100 builds on, structured where an aerospace auditor expects it, without standing up a quality department to run it.

  • Requirements Management

    AS9100, prime flow-down and export-control requirements captured as a traced set, each linked to the evidence that meets it.

  • Document Control

    Configuration, first-article and controlled documents with full revision history and sign-off - the traceability a programme needs for its whole life.

  • Risk Management

    Risk to programme and to contract performance in one living register a management review and an auditor can both read.

  • Stakeholder/Vendor Management

    Your own supply chain assessed and recorded, because in aerospace a lower-tier gap flows straight back up to you.

Why compliance matters in aerospace & space

  • AS9100 gets you on the list

    Aerospace primes and space agencies buy from an approved supply chain. AS9100 certification is the condition of being in it.

  • Safety-critical, decades-long

    Flight and space hardware cannot fail, and it is supported for decades - which is why configuration control and traceability are non-negotiable.

  • Export control carries legal weight

    ITAR, EAR and EU dual-use rules make the handling of technical data a legal matter, not just a quality one - it has to be controlled and evidenced.
