AS9100D Documentation for Titanium Parts
Neutral buyer guidance on AS9100D-related documentation and quality expectations for aerospace titanium parts.
Quick Answer
When sourcing aerospace titanium parts, confirm which quality system and documentation requirements apply (for example AS9100 certification, FAI/AS9102, and material traceability), and agree them in the contract before production.
Checklist
- Confirm which quality-system certification applies to the supplier
- Agree on first article inspection requirements (e.g. AS9102)
- Define material traceability and certification requirements
- Confirm non-conformance and change-management requirements
- Get the documentation requirements in the contract
Quality systems set expectations
Aerospace procurement often carries specific quality and documentation expectations. Clarify which apply to your program rather than assuming.
KEEP THE GAP
AS9100 and related requirements are defined by the SAE / IAQG. Refer to the official standard for normative text. titanium.blog is not a certification body.
