Before an authority inspection, a customer audit or a certification audit, it helps to know exactly where you stand. PAPCO Aviation audits your own organisation and gives you a clear, documented picture of your strengths and of the points to correct.
What we audit
- Quality management system. Procedures, responsibilities, internal audits and corrective actions, against recognised aerospace requirements such as AS9100 and EN 9100.
- Purchasing and supplier control. How your suppliers are selected, evaluated and monitored.
- Traceability and documentation. Origin records, certificates, release documents and record keeping.
- Receiving inspection and suspect parts. Checks on receipt, quarantine and handling of suspected unapproved parts.
- Storage, handling and packaging. Conditions that protect the integrity of the parts.
Who it is for
Operators, maintenance organisations and distributors that want to prepare for a customer, authority or certification audit, or simply check their own practices.
How it works
- Scope. We agree the activities, the standards and the depth of the audit with you.
- Preparation. Documents are requested and reviewed in advance.
- Audit. On site, or remotely when appropriate, including sampling of records and parts.
- Report. A written report lists findings, their severity and the evidence behind each one.
- Follow-up. We review your corrective action plan and can check that it is closed.
Please note
Our audits are independent assessments carried out at your request. They are not certification or accreditation audits, and they do not replace the approvals required by the authorities.
