Foreword
This document (EN 9101:2008) has been prepared by the Aerospace and Defence Industries Association of
Europe - Standardization (ASD-STAN).
After enquiries and votes carried out in accordance with the rules of this Association, this Standard has
received the approval of the National Associations and the Official Services of the member countries of ASD,
prior to its presentation to CEN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by October 2008, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at
the latest by October 2008.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
To assure customer satisfaction, aerospace industry organizations must produce, and continually improve,
safe, reliable products that meet or exceed customer and regulatory authority requirements. The globalization
of the aerospace industry, and the resulting diversity of regional/national requirements and expectations, has
complicated this objective. End-product organizations face the challenge of assuring the quality of, and
integrating, product purchased from suppliers throughout the world and at all levels within the supply chain.
Aerospace suppliers and processors face the challenge of delivering product to multiple customers having
varying quality expectations and requirements.
The aerospace industry has established the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) for the purpose of
achieving significant improvements in quality and safety, and reductions in cost, throughout the value stream.
This organization includes representatives from aerospace companies in the Americas, Asia/Pacific, and
Europe. This international standard has been prepared by the IAQG.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
QUESTIONNAIRE

1 PURPOSE
The purpose of this annex is to present the questionnaire to be used during the “on-site” quality
management system assessment of Organizations in order to ensure common practices for these
assessments.
2 USE OF THE QUESTIONNAIRE
The use of this questionnaire is mandatory and will be a part of the Assessment Report.
The audit is undertaken by review of the organization’s QMS against the requirements of the
EN 9100 standard, using the questionnaire as a guide. Findings are recorded as appropriate by the
following annotations in the respective columns of the questionnaire:

¾ Satisfactory (S)
¾ Not applicable (N/A) the reason shall be documented at the bottom of the page
¾ Not evaluated (N/E)
¾ Corrective Action Request (CAR) Major (Ma) or Minor (mi) nonconformity:

The CAR number shall be referenced in the “CAR number” column. The category Ma for Major CAR
or mi for Minor CAR shall also be included.

Additional information on questionnaire

Key Requirements: Some requirements are deemed to be very significant and are so identified by
the presence of “P” or “M” against the specific section or question within the questionnaire:

¾ “P” – direct link with Product

¾ “M” – direct link with Management

The extent of Key Requirement applicability is determined by the location of the “M” or “P”.
In the example below all of question 14 is considered as a Key Requirement.


M
14 Does the output from the management review include any decisions and actions related to:

a) Improvement of the effectiveness of the quality management system and its processes?
b) Improvement of product related to customer requirements? and
c) Resource needs?
13

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------

EN 9101:2008 (E)
In the second example below, only part of question 03, item d), is considered a Key Requirement.


03 In planning product realization, does the organization determine the following, as appropriate:

a) Quality objectives and requirements for the product?

b) The need to establish processes, documents, and provide resources specific to the

product?

c) Required verification, validation, monitoring, inspection and test activities specific to the

product and the criteria for product acceptance?
d) Records needed to provide evidence that the realization processes and resulting product P
meet requirements (see 4.2.4)?
e) The identification of resources to support operation and maintenance of the product?

Guidance Notes: Certain questions will have a numeric reference to additional guidance located in
the “Guidance Notes” section located after the questions on each page. The guidance notes provide
the auditor with further insight on type of objective evidence and/or review expectations, etc. In the
example below, note (1) provides the auditor with additional guidance pertaining to question 48
part a).


48 Does the analysis of data provide information relating to:

a) Customer satisfaction (see 8.2.1) (1)?
b) Conformity to product requirements (see 7.2.1)?
c) Characteristics and trends of processes and products including opportunities for
preventive action? and
d) Organizations?

Guidance Note
1) Give examples and check how the organization measures the effectiveness.
References: When a reference (e.g. 4.1) is added to a question, it is linked to the appropriate clause
(e.g. 4.1) of EN 9100 standard.
Objective evidence assessed / Observations / Comments / N/A explanation
Record the objective evidence reviewed during the assessment or reason for not applicable.
Nonconformities:
Major: The absence of, or total breakdown of, a management clause specified in the EN 9100
standard or any nonconformities where the effect is judged to be detrimental to the integrity
of the product or service.
Minor: A single system failure or lapse in conformance with a procedure relating to the EN 9100
standard.
Note: A number of minor nonconformities against one requirement can represent a total
breakdown of the system and this can be considered as a major nonconformity.
3 USE OF THE ASSESSMENT SCORING CHART
Refer to Annex B for instructions and guidance on how to score the EN 9100 audit.
