Mead Metals recently achieved a significant milestone on our quality journey: Certifying our integrated management system to the AS9100 aerospace standard. As a renowned metal supplier serving the Midwest's manufacturing sector since 1961, attaining this credential demonstrates our continued commitment to improvement.
WHAT IS THE AS9100 CERTIFICATION?
AS9100 certification signifies our alignment with meticulous quality, supply chain, safety, and documentation protocols required in aviation, space, and defense. By meeting these elite benchmarks, we're equipped to supply these intensely regulated industries as an approved provider.
Achieving AS9100 certification was an extensive but necessary undertaking, necessitating upgrades across policies, procedures, record keeping, traceability mechanisms, and more. We invested considerable resources to bring our quality management system to an even higher standard.
WHAT DOES AN AS9100 CERTIFICATION MEAN?
This key certification unlocks game-changing opportunities to grow our aviation, space, and defense customer base. It spotlights our capabilities on a global stage. And it forges credibility with new prospects seeking world-class partners.
At Mead Metals, a culture of excellence has always underpinned our half-century track record of success. Earning AS9100 reaffirms that we never stop striving to improve quality, service, and integrity. It's the Mead Metals way.
Looking ahead, we're eager to leverage our AS9100 and ISO 9001 certifications and longstanding industry relationships to build even stronger bonds with customers across manufacturing sectors. We're also working on initiatives like enhancing shipping tags, optimizing form printing, and material reporting in the International Material Data System (IMDS).
