InTech Aerospace LLC, a subsidiary of Greenville-based Ranger AeroSystems, achieved full certification to AS-9110 aerospace quality standards in Feb. 2016. Houston-based InTech Aerospace performs a variety of overhaul, repair and retrofit chores on aircraft interiors and related components on fixed-wing planes.
“We consistently seek to raise the bar on quality in each of our subsidiaries; that’s a steady pattern over the years in multiple successful aviation enterprises under Ranger,” said Steve Townes, Ranger Aerospace founder and CEO of Ranger AeroSystems. “We’re proud to support InTech Aerospace on these quality-centered initiatives.”
The AS-9110 aerospace standard is based on AS9100 and the fundamental principles of ISO-9000 and other quality management doctrines, but adds specific requirements that are critical for the maintenance of commercial, private, and military aircraft.
This standard includes additional criteria for maintenance repair and overhaul facilities serving the aircraft industry.
Areas of emphasis in the standard include detecting and preventing counterfeit and suspect unapproved parts, human factors, safety management systems, technical data, project management and risk management.
