How to Prepare Your Aerospace Facility For an ISO Audit

Striv­ing to achieve ISO cer­ti­fi­ca­tion for your aero­space facil­i­ty may seem like a daunt­ing jour­ney on the out­set. You’ll need to take a thor­ough and com­pre­hen­sive look at your man­age­ment process­es and man­u­fac­tur­ing stan­dards every step of the way. It’s cru­cial to pre­pare your team and facil­i­ty through sev­er­al rounds of inter­nal audits, mak­ing need­ed changes before your final exter­nal audit. Keep in mind that the audi­tors, both inter­nal and exter­nal, are on your team, push­ing you to reach for high­er goals and over­all excellence.

The pro­fes­sion­als at Kaloutas can help you along the way as you pre­pare for your final audit and cer­ti­fi­ca­tion. Read on to learn more about how our team can sup­port you through the ISO process.

Prepar­ing For an ISO Audit

As you begin prepa­ra­tion for your ISO audit, keep in mind that ISO cer­ti­fi­ca­tion means your man­age­ment and man­u­fac­tur­ing stan­dards are ever evolv­ing. This isn’t a once-and-done endeav­or but a com­mit­ment to meet­ing the demands of ever-chang­ing indus­try excel­lence. Don’t make the mis­take of rush­ing through your prep work, but take a deep and hon­est look at the items on your list and catch non-con­for­mi­ty issues before exter­nal audi­tors arrive. Final­ly, be sure your work­spaces are clean and well main­tained, with sol­id floor­ing and well paint­ed sur­faces, free from cracks and chipping.
