AS9100 certification in Newcastle at a glance
A short drive north of the city, Newcastle's defence story has a runway. The NSW Government's Williamtown Special Activation Precinct covers up to 10,000 hectares around Newcastle Airport and RAAF Base Williamtown, and within it Astra Aerolab is being developed as a defence and aerospace precinct with airside access to Australia's largest fast jet fighter base. Suppliers aiming for sustainment and manufacturing work there will meet AS9100, the aerospace quality management standard. It builds on ISO 9001 and adds configuration management, first article inspection, special-process control, product safety and counterfeit-part prevention. Sterling serves Newcastle from its Sydney office, compares your present system with the standard, and leaves assessment to an accredited certification body.

AS9100 in Newcastle: questions clients ask
Why is AS9100 talked about around Williamtown?
Because Astra Aerolab and the Special Activation Precinct are aimed at defence sustainment and manufacturing beside RAAF Base Williamtown. Suppliers wishing to work for integrators there are often asked for aerospace quality management. Each customer's supplier terms decide, so ask what level of evidence is required.
Can a Hunter engineering firm go straight to AS9100?
It can, but most start from ISO 9001. AS9100 adds configuration management, first article inspection, special-process control, product safety and counterfeit-part prevention. A short gap assessment shows how far an existing system is from those extras and whether the customer will accept staged progress.
