Module #011 AS 9102 First Artticle Inspection Price $220
This software was developed to provide an organized and easy way to enter the necessary data to provide objective evidence that all engineering design and specification requirements are properly understood, accounted for, verified, and documented.
Each data entry screen is laid out just as the AS 9102 forms are, to help with understanding where the entry data will be on the final printed forms. After data entry, the forms required by the AS 9102 Aerospace Standard can be printed for submittal.
As with all databases, discovery of an entry error on the printed forms is easily corrected by accessing the appropriate entry form and correcting the field entry that contains the error. Then the form(s) can be once again printed for review and submittal.
This will provide consistent documentation as required by AS9102, First Article Requirement for Aerospace Components First Article Inspection.
In construction of this software, we have included the entry requirement instructions of the standard for each of the three forms required by the standard as drop-down help screens. These are accessible as the user is entering data.
The forms used by the standard are as follows:
Form 1: Part Number Accountability
Form 2: Product Accountability – Raw Material, Special Process, Functional Testing
Form 3: Characteristic Accountability / Verification and Compatibility Evaluation
