These registrations and approvals demonstrate compliance with recognized aerospace and controlled-program requirements, including special process oversight, quality management system controls, and regulated access requirements. Current certificates can be downloaded below.

NADCAP Chemical Processing Registration / Download Certification

Nadcap Chemical Processing (AC7108/1) is one of the most demanding accreditations in aerospace finishing because it focuses on special processes where consistency and control are critical. Nadcap is an industry-managed, second-party program, meaning the requirements are set and approved by participating aerospace “Subscribers,” your customers, and the results are broadly recognized across the supply chain. This strengthens process control, improves customer confidence, and helps reduce the need for multiple customer audits.

Industry-driven requirements verified against standardized audit criteria accepted across aerospace.
Reduced audit duplication, one Nadcap audit can reduce the need for multiple customer special process audits.
Stronger process control, focus on documentation, training, equipment control, and repeatability for special processes.

AS9100 Rev. D Registration & ISO 9001:2015 Registration / Download Certification

AS9100 Rev D is the globally adopted aerospace quality management system standard. It incorporates ISO 9001:2015 requirements and adds aviation, space, and defense controls intended to standardize expectations across the supply chain and reduce customer-unique requirements. Key added focus areas include operational risk management, configuration management, product safety, and prevention of counterfeit parts.

Standardized aerospace QMS requirements across the supply chain, supporting improved quality and delivery performance through reduced customer-unique requirements.
Operational control with risk and safety focus, including requirements tied to product safety and operational planning.
Counterfeit parts prevention controls integrated into the standard.

ISO 9001:2015 specifies requirements for a process-based quality management system designed to consistently meet customer and applicable requirements. The standard emphasizes the process approach supported by the PDCA cycle, risk-based thinking embedded throughout the QMS, performance evaluation, and continual improvement.

Process approach and PDCA, to manage and improve interconnected processes systematically.
Risk-based thinking, to identify, consider, and control risks and opportunities across processes and planning.
Continual improvement and review, driven by measurement, audits, and management review expectations.

CGD Registration / Download Certification

The Controlled Goods Program is a federal registration and compliance framework that regulates access to controlled goods in Canada, including requirements related to examining, possessing, or transferring controlled goods. The program is administered under the authority of the Defence Production Act and the Controlled Goods Regulations, and it requires controlled access measures, oversight by a Designated Official, and security assessments for personnel who require access.

Access to controlled goods is managed under a regulated framework governing examination, possession, and transfer in Canada.
A Designated Official is required to oversee compliance and administer CGP requirements within the organization.
Security assessments are required by law for individuals who require access to controlled goods, to evaluate risk of unauthorized transfer.
