Rationale
This document has been revised to incorporate the new clause structure and content of
EN ISO 9001:2015. In addition, industry requirements, definitions and notes have been revised in
response to both EN ISO 9001 revisions and stakeholder needs.
Foreword
To assure customer satisfaction, aviation, space and defence organizations must provide and
continually improve, safe and reliable products and services that meet or exceed customer and
applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. The globalization of the industry and the
resulting diversity of regional and national requirements and expectations have complicated this
objective. Organizations have the challenge of purchasing products and services from external
providers throughout the world and at all levels of the supply chain. External providers have the
challenge of delivering products and services to multiple customers having varying quality
requirements and expectations.
Industry has established the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG), with representatives
from aviation, space and defence companies in the Americas, Asia/Pacific and Europe, to
implement initiatives that make significant improvements in quality and reductions in cost
throughout the value stream. This document has been prepared by the IAQG.
This document standardizes quality management system requirements to the greatest extent
possible and can be used at all levels of the supply chain by organizations around the world. Its use
should result in improved quality, cost and delivery performance through the reduction or
elimination of organization-unique requirements, effective implementation of the quality
management system and wider application of good practice. While primarily developed for the
aviation, space and defence industry, this document can also be used in other industry sectors
when a quality management system with additional requirements over an EN ISO 9001 system is
needed.

Intended application
This document is intended for use by organizations that procure parts, materials and assemblies
and resell these products to a customer in the aviation, space and defence industries. This includes
organizations that procure products and split them into smaller quantities, including those that
coordinate a customer or regulatory controlled process on the product. This document is not
intended for organizations that maintain or repair products or for organizations that perform
work that affect or could affect product characteristics or conformity.
Organizations that design, develop or provide aviation, space and defence products and services
should use the IAQG-developed EN 9100 standard (see bibliography). This includes organizations
providing post-delivery activities, including the provision of maintenance, spare parts or materials
for their own products and services.
Organizations whose primary business is providing maintenance or continuing airworthiness
management services for civil or military aviation articles and products and original equipment
manufacturers with maintenance, repair and overhaul operations that are operated
autonomously or that are substantially different from their production operations; should use the
IAQG-developed EN 9110 standard (see bibliography).
0 Introduction
0.1 General
The adoption of a quality management system is a strategic decision for an organization that can help to
improve its overall performance and provide a sound basis for sustainable development initiatives.
The potential benefits to an organization of implementing a quality management system based on this
International Standard are:
a) the ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and applicable
statutory and regulatory requirements;
b) facilitating opportunities to enhance customer satisfaction;
c) addressing risks and opportunities associated with its context and objectives;
d) the ability to demonstrate conformity to specified quality management system requirements.
This International Standard can be used by internal and external parties.
It is not the intent of this International Standard to imply the need for:
— uniformity in the structure of different quality management systems;
— alignment of documentation to the clause structure of this International Standard;
— the use of the specific terminology of this International Standard within the organization.
The quality management system requirements specified in this International Standard are
complementary to requirements for products and services.
This International Standard employs the process approach, which incorporates the Plan-Do-Check-Act
(PDCA) cycle and risk-based thinking.

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------

SIST EN 9120:2018
EN 9120:2018 (E)
The process approach enables an organization to plan its processes and their interactions.
The PDCA cycle enables an organization to ensure that its processes are adequately resourced and
managed and that opportunities for improvement are determined and acted on.
Risk-based thinking enables an organization to determine the factors that could cause its processes and
its quality management system to deviate from the planned results, to put in place preventive controls
to minimize negative effects and to make maximum use of opportunities as they arise (see A.4).
Consistently meeting requirements and addressing future needs and expectations poses a challenge for
organizations in an increasingly dynamic and complex environment. To achieve this objective, the
organization might find it necessary to adopt various forms of improvement in addition to correction
and continual improvement, such as breakthrough change, innovation and re-organization.
In this International Standard, the following verbal forms are used:
— “shall” indicates a requirement;
— “should” indicates a recommendation;
— “may” indicates a permission;
— “can” indicates a possibility or a capability.
Information marked as “NOTE” is for guidance in understanding or clarifying the associated
requirement.
0.2 Quality management principles
This International Standard is based on the quality management principles described in EN ISO 9000.
The descriptions include a statement of each principle, a rationale of why the principle is important for
the organization, some examples of benefits associated with the principle and examples of typical
actions to improve the organization’s performance when applying the principle.
The quality management principles are:
— customer focus;
— leadership;
— engagement of people;
— process approach;
— improvement;
— evidence-based decision making;
— relationship management.

0.3 Process approach
0.3.1 General
This International Standard promotes the adoption of a process approach when developing,
implementing and improving the effectiveness of a quality management system, to enhance customer
satisfaction by meeting customer requirements. Specific requirements considered essential to the
adoption of a process approach are included in 4.4.
Understanding and managing interrelated processes as a system contributes to the organization’s
effectiveness and efficiency in achieving its intended results. This approach enables the organizati
