Our Core Offerings:
- Quality Improvement Training. We deliver hands-on, industry-recognized courses designed to drive measurable results, including:
- Lean Six Sigma (Green Belt and Black Belt)
- Design of Experiments (DOE)
- Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
- 8D Problem Solving
- Statistical Process Control (SPC)
- Certification Consulting & Implementation. We guide organizations through successful certification to key standards such as AS9100 and ISO 9001. Our structured training modules cover:
- Production and Administrative Awareness
- Operations Excellence
- Organizational Management
- Quality Enhancement Strategies
- Cybersecurity & Compliance Transformation. We specialize in helping DoD suppliers and manufacturers achieve and maintain compliance with NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC requirements. A key focus is guiding clients to adopt Microsoft 365 Government Community Cloud (GCC) — a FedRAMP High-authorized environment — to efficiently remediate identified gaps.
- GCC’s built-in controls for access management, encryption, auditing, data loss prevention (DLP), and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) protection automate 50–70% of technical implementations (e.g., multi-factor authentication, Microsoft Purview auditing/logging, and Microsoft Defender safeguards). This approach shifts effort from costly custom builds to smart configuration, policy development, and secure migration — accelerating compliance timelines, lowering risk, and enabling secure DoD-related operations.

AS9100 Certification Process

Step 1: Learn About AS9100: Understand the requirements of the AS9100 standard. This involves obtaining a copy of the AS9100 Standard and any supporting documents.
2
Step 2: Perform a Gap Analysis: Assess your current Quality Management System (QMS) to identify areas that need improvement to meet AS9100 requirements.
3
Step 3: Plan Your Implementation: Develop a detailed project plan for implementing AS9100. This includes defining the scope and timeline of the project.
4
Step 4: Train Your Organization: Educate all employees about AS9100 and their roles in the QMS. Training ensures everyone understands the new processes and procedures.
5
Step 5: Document Your QMS: Create and document your quality manual, procedures, and work instructions to align with AS9100 standards.
6
Step 6: Implement the QMS: Put the documented processes into practice. This step involves running the QMS for a period (usually around three months) to .collect records and ensure it is functioning correctly.
7
Step 7: Conduct Internal Audits: Regularly audit your QMS to identify any non-conformities and areas for improvement. This prepares you for the external audit.
