Posts Perfect Score During Quality Audit
F3 Engineering posted a perfect OASIS
score of 100 during its annual AS 9100 quality surveillance audit.
January 30, 2008 - Paterson, NJ
- When Form Fit and Function (F3) became
AS 9100 certified last year, the company that develops and produces
proprietary motion control products for military and commercial
applications impressed the industry with its Online Aerospace Supplier
Information System (OASIS) audit score of 99.5.
During its 2007 annual surveillance audit, F3 bested itself by achieving
a perfect OASIS score of 100.
"We are thrilled to achieve this accomplishment," said F3 President
Odilo Vazquez. "It speaks to the commitment our entire team holds to
ensuring we provide the highest quality product and customer
satisfaction."
The AS 9100 Standard was introduced in 1997 by the Society of Automotive
Engineers. It has since evolved to include all major aerospace
manufacturers. With 96 percent of F3's contracts dedicated to military
avionics, it was a natural choice in 1996 for the company to take the
extra step and obtain this more specialized aerospace registration.
The annual audits following the award of the three-year registration
look at a variety of processes involving a company's quality management
system. These include a commitment to continual improvement, meeting
customer and regulatory requirements, establishing and meeting quality
policies and objectives, conducting management reviews and providing
necessary resources.
F3 was assisted by Change Management Consulting, Inc. (CMC) in earning
its AS 9100 certification. According to Stanley Cherkasky, CMC's
Managing Partner, F3's OASIS perfect audit score is exemplary.
"Less than 15 percent of companies receive a perfect score," Cherkasky
said. "Companies are continually looking for the edge that will
distinguish them from the competition, and one significant advantage
that is often overlooked is the audit score."
"F3's accomplishments are indicative of their robust quality management
system, and their ability to provide premiere products and services,"
stated Cherkasky. "They have raised the aerospace industry bar, and I'm
confident that the F3 management team will be relentless in their
continual improvement journey and their pursuit of excellence."
