Tier ONE achieves AS9100C certification

Newtown, Connecticut – Tier ONE is expanding its business further into the aerospace market. With core capabilities in precision machining, packaging, and assembly solutions for function-critical, highly engineered parts and assemblies, Tier One has now been certified to the AS9100 Rev C Standard for its Newtown, Connecticut, manufacturing facility and corporate headquarters.

 

AS9100 certification reflects a commitment to meeting and exceeding the increasingly stringent industry requirements for aerospace, defense, and aviation related products. As Joe Young, principal of Tier ONE, stated, “This shows that Tier ONE’s manufacturing processes consistently meet the requirements and expectations of customers presenting the most challenging applications.”

 

This certification strengthens Tier ONE’s competitive position and standardizes quality, reliability, and safety processes across its aerospace, defense, and aviation related programs.

 

According to Rick Hall, one of the principals and head of quality at Tier ONE, "The addition of AS9100 certification complements Tier ONE’s ISO 9001:2008 certification and reflects the continuous improvement efforts and commitments made by our employees to deliver the highest quality products to our customers. The process of upgrading our quality management system to AS9100C began over a year ago when we decided to expand our market presence in the aerospace, defense, and aviation industries.”
