What is the difference between EN 9100 and ISO 9001 for a buyer?
EN 9100:2018 is the European quality management standard for aviation and space: it contains all requirements of ISO 9001:2015 and adds requirements specific to aviation and space supply chains.
| ISO 9001:2015 | EN 9100:2018 (≡ AS9100D) | |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | any industry | aviation and space supply chain, built on ISO 9001:2015 |
| First article inspection | not required | required before series production |
| Counterfeit-part prevention | not required | required |
| Drawing revision control | general document control | product-level configuration management |
| Traceability | where appropriate | full traceability of material, processes and inspection |
| Public certificate register | certification body | public IAQG OASIS database |
It is technically equivalent to AS9100D (Americas) and JIS Q 9100:2016 (Asia), so one certificate is recognised by aerospace customers worldwide.
Does a supplier with EN 9100 also meet ISO 9001?
Yes – EN 9100:2018 includes every requirement of ISO 9001:2015, so a separate ISO 9001 certificate is not needed to show ISO 9001 compliance.
RESEDA d.o.o. therefore lists EN 9100:2018 as its quality certificate.
What does EN 9100 change in day-to-day supply?
For the buyer it means more evidence per part.
At RESEDA every new part goes through first article inspection (FAI / EMPB) approved by the customer before series production; a measurement report is made for every critical characteristic; each batch is traceable from material and lot through operations, machines, operators and measurements to packaging; and every drawing change triggers a technical review so that only the current revision is produced.
A counterfeit-part prevention procedure is in place (quarantine, supplier and authorities notified).
How can a buyer verify an EN 9100 certificate?
Check the issuing body, scope and expiry date on the certificate, and look the supplier up in the public IAQG OASIS database.
RESEDA's EN 9100:2018 certificate (no. 30600230 AS0018D) was issued by DQS, a DAkkS-accredited certification body and IQNet member. In IAQG OASIS, RESEDA d.o.o. is listed as certified under OIN 700043221.
Is EN 9100 only relevant for aerospace parts?
No – buyers in other demanding industries also use it as proof of process discipline.
RESEDA works under EN 9100:2018 and supplies parts for chip lithography systems, vacuum technology, precision metrology, painting technology and mechanical engineering as well as for aircraft, avionics and satellites.
