In short

AS9100 certification in Beijing at a glance

Commercial aerospace has found a base in south-east Beijing. The municipal investment pages describe an E-Town commercial aerospace chain that includes most of the country's private rocket makers, and the Shunyi Cluster lists aviation service among seven target industries tied to Beijing Capital International Airport. Suppliers to such programmes meet AS9100, the quality standard for aviation, space and defence organisations. It builds on ISO 9001 and adds controls for configuration management, product safety, counterfeit-part prevention, risk and on-time delivery. Machine shops, electronics suppliers and test houses around E-Town and Shunyi therefore get asked for it by prime customers. Sterling prepares them from its Shanghai office for an accredited certification body, with Effivity and Sterling Academy included.

AS9100 in Beijing: questions clients ask

Do E-Town rocket and satellite suppliers need AS9100?

Often, but the requirement comes from the customer's contract rather than from the city. The municipal investment pages describe a commercial aerospace chain at E-Town, and suppliers to those programmes are commonly asked for an aerospace quality system. Read the quality flow-down clauses in each purchase order before choosing the scope of your certificate.

Is AS9100 relevant to airport-zone service firms in Shunyi?

Only for firms that design, make or maintain aircraft parts or supply those who do. The Shunyi Cluster plan names aviation service among seven target industries, but logistics, finance and ground-handling businesses usually need ISO 9001 or continuity work instead. Ask your aviation customers which approval they require before committing to a scope.
