This Quality Manual has been prepared to describe the CNC Dynamics QMS. The scope and permissible exclusions of the QMS are described in section one of this manual. Each section of the manual references documented QMS procedures relating to the requirements outlined in that section. The Process Flow Diagram at the end of section 4 provides a description of the interaction between the processes of the QMS system. The relationship between the AS 9100 standard and documented procedure has been indicated by use of a numbering system that correlates to the AS 9100 standard.

All of the QMS documents are controlled according to the Document Control Procedure (AP-423). This procedure defines the process for:

▪ Ensuring that changes and current revision status of documents are identified

▪ Ensuring that relevant versions of applicable documents are available at points of use

▪ Ensuring that documents of external origin are identified and their distribution controlled

▪ Preventing the unintended use of obsolete documents and to apply suitable identification to them if they are retained for any purpose and

▪ Obtaining customer / regulatory agency approvals when required by contract or regulatory requirements

▪ Coordinating document changes with customers or regulatory authorities in accordance with contract or regulatory requirements.

Quality records are maintained to provide evidence of conformity to requirements and of the effective operation of the QMS. The records, including those created by or maintained by suppliers, are maintained according to the Control of Quality Records Procedure (AP-424). This procedure requires that quality records remain legible, readily identifiable and retrievable. Records are available for review by customers and regulatory authorities in accordance with contract or regulatory requirements. The procedure defines the controls needed for identification, storage, protection, retrieval, retention time and disposition of quality records. Records are made available to customers / regulatory agencies when required by contract or regulatory requirements.

The organization has established, documented and maintains a configuration management process that is appropriate to the product.

Top Management has been actively involved in implementing the quality management system (QMS). It has provided the vision and strategic direction for the growth of the QMS, and established quality objectives and the quality policy.

To continue to provide leadership and show commitment to the improvement of the QMS, management will do the following.

▪ Communicate the importance of meeting customer, statutory, and regulatory requirements.

CNC Dynamics strives to identify current and future customer needs, to meet customer requirements and exceed customer expectations.

Top Management ensures that customer requirements are understood and met, by requiring compliance with documented customer communication procedures. Customer requirements are determined, converted into internal requirements, and communicated to the appropriate people in our organization (SP-720).

“CNC Dynamics inc. is committed to deliver high-quality products that meet the needs and expectations of our customers. we will actively pursue ever improving quality through programs that enable each employee to do their job right the first time and every time.”

Top Management ensures that the quality policy is communicated to all employees. It is included in new employee training and training on the QMS, and is posted in prominent places throughout the facility to maintain high standards within our organization.

Management reviews the quality policy at each management review meeting to determine the policy’s continuing suitability for our organization. The Quality Policy is documented on AP-501.

Quality objectives are established to support our organization’s efforts in achieving our quality policy and reviewed annually for suitability. Quality objectives are determined at Company, departmental, and functional levels; are measurable; and are reviewed against performance goals throughout the year. Quality objectives are measurable, and reviewed against performance goals at each management review meeting.

The quality system has been planned and implemented to meet our quality objectives and the requirements of 4.1 of the AS 9100 standard. Quality planning takes place as changes that affect the quality system are planned and implemented.

An organizational chart has been established to show the interrelation of personnel in the organization. Job descriptions define the responsibilities and authorities of each of the positions on the organizational chart. Job descriptions and the organizational chart are reviewed and approved by top management for adequacy. These documents are available throughout the organization to help employees understand responsibilities and authorities. An organizational chart is located on page 5 of this manual.

The Quality Manager has been appointed by Top Management as the management representative. As management representative, they have the following responsibility and authority:

▪ Ensure that processes needed for the quality management system are established and implemented.

▪ Report to top management on the performance of the quality management system, and note needed improvements.

▪ Act as a liaison with external parties such as customers or auditors on matters relating to the QMS and

Processes are established for communication within the organization. Methods of communicating the effectiveness of the QMS include department and management meetings, management review, circulation of minutes of management review meetings, Internal Audit Closing meetings, and other routine business communication.

Executive and Top Management review the QMS at management review meetings. This review assesses the continuing QMS suitability, adequacy and effectiveness, identifying opportunities for improvement and needed changes. Records are maintained for each management review meeting.

Assessment of the QMS is based on a review of information inputs to management review. These inputs include the following:

During these review meetings, management will identify appropriate actions to be taken regarding the following issues:

§ Improvement of the effectiveness of the quality management system and its processes

Responsibility for required actions is assigned to members of the management review team. Any decisions made during the meeting, assigned actions, and their due dates are recorded in the minutes of management review.

CNC Dynamics has implemented a Quality Management System that complies with the AS 9100 standard. This implementation was achieved with management commitment and with sufficient resources for the implementation. To effectively maintain and continually improve the system, management determines and provides necessary resources.

To ensure competence of our personnel, job descriptions have been prepared identifying the qualifications required for each position that affects product quality. Qualifications include requirements for education, skills and experience. Appropriate qualifications, along with required training, provide the competence required for each position.

Qualifications are reviewed upon hire, when an employee changes positions or the requirements for a position change. Human resources maintain records of employee qualifications. If any differences between the employee’s qualifications and the requirements for the job are found, training or other action is taken to provide the employee with the necessary competence for the job. The results are then evaluated to determine if they were effective. Training and evaluation are conducted according to the Training procedure. (AP-622)

All employees are trained on the relevance and importance of their activities and how they contribute to the achievement of the quality objectives.

A work environment suitable for achieving product conformance is maintained. Requirements are determined during quality planning and documented in the quality plan. The work environment is managed for continuing suitability. Data from the quality system is evaluated to determine if the work environment is sufficient for achieving product conformance, or if preventive or corrective action related to the work environment is required.

Quality planning is required before new products or processes are implemented. The quality planning may take place as a design project, or according to the Planning of Product Realization procedure (MP-710). During this planning, management or assigned personnel identify:

The output of quality planning includes documented quality plans, processes, procedures and design outputs.

CNC Dynamics determines customer requirements before acceptance of an order. Customer requirements include those:

▪ Not stated by the customer but necessary for specified use or known and intended use

Customer requirements are determined according to the Customer Related Processes Procedure. (SP-720)

CNC Dynamics has a process in place for the review of requirements related to the product (SP-720). The review is conducted before the order is accepted. The process ensures that:

▪ Contract or order requirements differing from those previously expressed are resolved

▪ Records are maintained showing the results of the review and any actions arising from the review

▪ Where a customer does not provide a documented statement of requirement, the customer requirements are confirmed before acceptance

▪ When product requirements are changed, CNC Dynamics communicates changes to relevant personnel and amends relevant documents

▪ Risks (e.g., new technology, short delivery time scale) have been evaluated.

CNC Dynamics has implemented an effective procedure (SP-720) for communicating with customers in relation to:

The design and development procedure (EP-730) outlines the process for controlling the design and development process. The Engineering Department plans design and development according to this procedure. The design plan includes:

▪ Design and development stages including organization, task sequence, mandatory steps, significant stages and method of configuration control,

▪ Required design reviews, verification and validation appropriate to each design stage

▪ Where appropriate, due to complexity, the organization gives consideration to the following activities:

Ø For each element, analyzing the tasks and the necessary resources for its design and development. This analysis considers an identified responsible person, design content, input data, planning constraints, and performance conditions. The input data specific to each element is reviewed to ensure consistency with requirements.

▪ Verification and validation methods appropriate to each design and development stage

▪ The different design and development tasks to be carried out, defined according to specified safety or functional objectives of the product in accordance with customer or regulatory authority requirements.

Inputs relating to product requirements are determined and documented according to the Design and Development procedure (EP-730). All inputs are reviewed for adequacy and completeness, and to resolve any ambiguous inputs. Inputs include:

Outputs of design and development are documented according to the Design and Development Procedure (EP-730). They are documented in a format that enables verification against the inputs, and are approved prior to release. Outputs:

▪ Provide appropriate information for purchasing, production and for service provision

▪ Specify the characteristics of the product that are essential for its safe and proper use.

▪ Identify key characteristics in accordance with design or contract requirements (EP-731)

All pertinent data required to allow the product to be identified, manufactured, inspected, used and maintained is defined by the organization according to the Design and Development Procedure (EP-730)

The design plan specifies suitable stages of the project to conduct design and development review. Reviews take place according to the design and development procedure; results of design review are recorded in minutes of the design review meetings which are maintained as a quality record. Design reviews:

▪ Evaluate the results of design and development activities and determine if they fulfill requirements

▪ Include representatives of functions concerned with the design and development stage being reviewed to authorize progression to the next stage.

Design verification is planned and performed to ensure that the design and development outputs have satisfied the design and development input requirements. Records of the results of the verification and any necessary actions are maintained according to the Design and Development procedure (EP-730).

Design and development validation is performed according to the design plan to ensure that the resulting product is capable of fulfilling the requirements for the specified or known intended use or application. Validation is completed prior to delivery whenever practicable. Records of the validation activities are maintained according to the design and development procedure.

At the completion of design and/or development, the organization ensures that reports, calculations, test results, etc., demonstrate that the product definition meets the specification requirements for all identified operational conditions.

Where tests are necessary for verification and validation, these tests are planned, controlled, reviewed, and documented to ensure and prove the following:

▪ Test plans or specifications identify the product being tested and the resources being used, define test objectives and conditions, parameters to be recorded, and relevant acceptance criteria

▪ Test procedures describe the method of operation, the performance of the test, and the recording of the results

The design and development procedure defines a process for identifying, recording, verifying, validating and approving design changes. The review of design and development changes includes an evaluation of the effect of the changes on constituent parts and delivered product. Records are maintained to show the results of the review and any necessary actions identified during the review. This procedure provides for customer or regulatory authority approval of changes, when required by contract or regulatory requirement.

A documented procedure (AP-740) is followed to ensure that purchased product conforms to the specified purchase requirements. The procedure outlines the extent of control required for suppliers. Suppliers are evaluated and selected based on their ability to supply product in accordance with requirements as outlined in the procedure. Criteria for selection, evaluation and re-evaluation are documented in the procedure. Records of the evaluation and any necessary actions are maintained as quality records. The organization is responsible for the quality of all products purchased from suppliers, including customer-designated sources.

Purchasing information describes the product to be purchased, including where appropriate:

▪ Quality management system requirements outlined in the Purchasing Procedure (AP-740)

The purchasing documents are reviewed to ensure the adequacy of requirements before orders are placed with the supplier.

The Purchasing procedure (AP-740) describes the process used to verify that purchased product meets specified purchase requirements. Purchased product is not used or processed until it has been verified as conforming to specified requirements unless it is released under positive recall procedure. If test reports are used to verify purchased product, the data must meet applicable specifications. Test reports for raw material are periodically validated.

When verification activities are delegated to the supplier the requirements are defined, and a register of delegations is maintained.

If CNC Dynamics or the customer will perform verification at the supplier’s premises, the verification arrangements and method of product release are documented in the purchasing information. Where specified in the contract, the customer or the customer’s representative is given the right to verify at the suppliers premises and organization’s premises that product conforms to specified requirements

CNC Dynamics plans and carries out production and service provision under controlled conditions according to documented procedure (MP-750). Planning considers, as applicable:

▪ The establishment of process controls and development of control plans where key characteristics have been identified,

▪ The identification of in-process verification points when adequate verification of conformance cannot be performed at a later stage of realization,

▪ The design, manufacture, and use of tooling so that variable measurements can be taken, particularly for key characteristics, and

▪ The availability of information that describes the characteristics of the product

▪ accountability for all product during manufacture (e.g., parts quantities, split orders, nonconforming product), part accountability to ensure bad parts have been destroyed

▪ evidence that all manufacturing and inspection operations have been completed as planned, or as otherwise documented and authorized,

▪ monitoring and control of utilities and supplies such as water, compressed air, electricity and chemical products to the extent they affect product quality, and criteria for workmanship, which shall be stipulated in the clearest practical manner (e.g., written standards, representative samples or illustrations).

Production operations are carried out in accordance with approved data. This data contains as necessary:

▪ Drawings, parts lists, process flow charts including inspection operations, production documents and inspection documents

▪ A list of specific or non-specific tools and num eric al control (NC) machine programs required and specific instructions associated with their use.

Authorized people for approving changes to production processes are identified in the Procedure MP-750. CNC Dynamics identifies and obtains acceptance of changes that require customer or regulatory authority approval in accordance with contract or regulatory requirements. Changes affecting processes, production equipment, tools and programs are documented and procedures are available to control the implementation of changes.

The results of changes to production processes are assessed to confirm that the desired effect has been achieved without adverse effects to product quality.

7.5.1.3 Control of Production Equipment, Tools and Num eric al Control (N.C.) Machine Programs

Production equipment, tools and programs are validated prior to use and maintained and inspected periodically according to documented procedures. Validation prior to production use includes verification of the first article produced to the design data/specification. Storage requirements, including periodic preservation/condition checks, have been be established for production equipment or tooling in storage.

7.5.1.4 Control of Work Transferred, on a Temporary Basis, Outside the Organization’s Facilities

When planning to temporarily transfer work to a location outside the organization’s facilities, the organization defines the process to control and validate the quality of the work.

Where servicing is a specified requirement, service operation processes provide for:

▪ Actions to be taken where problems are identified after delivery, including investigation, reporting activities, and actions on service information consistent with contractual and/or regulatory requirements,

CNC Dynamics validates any processes for production and service provision where the resulting output cannot be verified by subsequent monitoring or measurement. This includes any processes where deficiencies become apparent only after the product is in use or the service has been delivered. Validation demonstrates the ability of these processes to achieve planned results.

▪ Defined criteria for review and approval of the processes, qualification and approval of special processes prior to use

▪ Control of the significant operations and parameters of special processes in accordance with documented process specifications and changes thereto

CNC Dynamics identifies the product throughout product realization according to the Identification and Traceability procedure (MP-753).

▪ CNC Dynamics maintains the identification of the configuration of the product in order to identify any differences between the actual configuration and the agreed configuration.

▪ Product is identified with respect to monitoring and measurement requirements.

▪ When acceptance authority media such as stamps, electronic signatures or passwords are used CNC Dynamics establishes and documents controls for the media.

▪ According to the level of traceability required by contract, regulatory, or other established requirement, CNC Dynamics system provides for:

o All the products manufactured from the same batch of raw material or from the same manufacturing batch to be traced, as well as the destination (delivery, scrap) of all products of the same batch;

o For an assembly, the identity of its components and those of the next higher assembly to be traced;

o For a given product, a sequential record of its production (manufacture, assembly, inspection) to be retrieved.

CNC Dynamics controls and records the unique identification of the product where ever traceability is a specified requirement

CNC Dynamics exercises care with customer property while it is under the organization ' s control or being used. A procedure (MP-754) outlines the Identification, verification, protection and safeguarding of customer property provided for use. If any customer property is lost, damaged or otherwise found to be unsuitable for use, this is reported to the customer and records maintained.

CNC Dynamics preserves the conformity of product during internal processing and delivery to the intended destination per procedure (MP-755). This preservation includes identification, handling, packaging, storage and protection. Preservation also applies to the constituent parts of a product.

Preservation of product also includes, where applicable in accordance with product specifications and/or applicable regulations, provisions for:

The organization ensures that documents required by the contract or order to accompany the product are present at delivery and are protected against loss and deterioration.

CNC Dynamics has determined the monitoring and measurement to be undertaken and the monitoring and measuring devices needed to provide evidence of conformity of product to determined requirements. A documented procedure (QP-760) outlines the process used to ensure that monitoring and measurement to be carried out are carried out in a manner that is consistent with the monitoring and measurement requirements.

▪ Calibrated or verified at specified intervals, or prior to use, against measurement standards traceable to international or national measurement standards.

▪ Protected from damage and deterioration during handling, maintenance and storage

In addition, Quality Control assesses and records the validity of the previous measuring results when the equipment is found not to conform to requirements. CNC Dynamics takes appropriate action on the equipment and any product affected. Records of the results of calibration and verification are maintained

CNC Dynamics maintains a register of these monitoring and measuring devices. The process used for their calibration is defined in procedures, work instructions and equipment manuals and includes details of equipment type, unique identification, location, frequency of checks, check method and acceptance criteria.

When used in the monitoring and measurement of specified requirements, the ability of computer software to satisfy the intended application is confirmed. This is undertaken prior to initial use and reconfirmed as necessary.

CNC Dynamics ensures that environmental conditions are suitable for the calibrations, inspections, measurements and tests being carried out.

CNC Dynamics plans and implements the monitoring, measurement, analysis and improvement processes as needed

These processes are identified in documented procedures and include determination of applicable methods, including statistical techniques, and the extent of their use.

As one of the measurements of the performance of the quality management system, CNC Dynamics monitors information relating to customer perception as to whether the organization has fulfilled customer requirements. The method for obtaining and using this information is identified in the Customer Related Processes (SP-720) and the Management Responsibility procedures (AP-500).

CNC Dynamics conducts internal audits at planned intervals to determine whether the quality management system

▪ Conforms to the planned arrangements (see 7.1), to the requirements of this International Standard and to the quality management system requirements established by the organization

An audit program has been designed and implemented and identifies an audit schedule based on the importance of the areas to be audited, as well as the results of previous audits. The audit criteria, scope, frequency, methods, responsibilities and requirements for planning and conducting audits, and for reporting and maintaining results, are defined and documented in the Internal Audit procedure (QP-822).

The management responsible for the area being audited is responsible for ensuring that actions are taken without undue delay to eliminate detected nonconformities and their causes. Follow-up activities include the verification of the actions taken and the reporting of verification results.

Detailed tools and techniques such as checksheets, process flowcharts, or any similar method to support audit of the quality management system requirements are developed, maintained and used according to the Internal Audit Procedure (QP-822). The acceptability of the selected tools is measured against the effectiveness of the internal audit process and overall organization performance.

CNC Dynamics applies suitable methods for monitoring and, where applicable, measurement of the quality management system processes. These methods demonstrate the ability of the processes to achieve planned results. When planned results are not achieved, correction and corrective action is taken, as appropriate, to ensure conformity of the product. In the event of process nonconformity, the organization:

▪ Evaluates whether the process nonconformity has resulted in product nonconformity, and

▪ Identifies and controls the nonconforming product in accordance with clause 8.3.

The process for identifying and carrying out the required monitoring and measuring of processes is documented in the Monitoring, Measuring and Analysis of Product Realization Processes (MP-824) and Management Responsibility procedures (AP-500).

CNC Dynamics monitors and measures the characteristics of the product to verify that product requirements are fulfilled. This is carried out at appropriate stages of the product realization process identified in Monitoring, Measuring and Analysis of Product Realization Processes (MP-824).

Evidence of conformity with the acceptance criteria is maintained. Records indicate the person authorizing release of product. Product release and service delivery does not proceed until all the planned arrangements have been satisfactorily completed, unless otherwise approved by a relevant authority, and where applicable by the customer.

When key characteristics have been identified, they are monitored and controlled.

When the organization uses sampling inspection as a means of product acceptance, the plan is statistically valid and appropriate for use. The plan precludes the acceptance of lots whose samples have known nonconformities. When required, the plan is submitted for customer approval.

Product is not used until it has been inspected or otherwise verified as conforming to specified requirements, except when product is released under positive-recall procedures pending completion of all required measurement and monitoring activities.

Measurement requirements for product or service acceptance are documented. This documentation is part of the production documentation, and includes:

▪ Type of measurement instruments required and any specific instructions associated with their use.

▪ Test records shall show actual test results data when required by specification or acceptance test plan.

▪ Where required to demonstrate product qualification the organization shall ensure that records provide evidence that the product meets the defined requirements.

The organization’s system shall provide a process for the inspection, verification, and documentation of a representative item from the first production run of a new part, or following any subsequent change that invalidates the previous first article inspection result.

CNC Dynamics ensures that product which does not conform to product requirements is identified and controlled to prevent its unintended use or delivery. The controls and related responsibilities and authorities for dealing with nonconforming product are defined in the Control of Nonconforming Product procedure (QP-830).

The organization does not use dispositions of use-as-is or repair, unless specifically authorized by the customer, if

Unless otherwise restricted in the contract, organization-designed product which is controlled via a customer specification may be dispositioned by CNC Dynamics as use-as-is or repair, provided the nonconformity does not result in a departure from customer-specified requirements.

Product dispositioned for scrap is conspicuously and permanently marked, or positively controlled, until physically rendered unusable.

In addition to any contract or regulatory authority reporting requirements, CNC Dynamics system provides for timely reporting of delivered nonconforming product that may affect reliability or safety. Notification includes a clear description of the nonconformity, which includes as necessary parts affected, customer and/or organization part numbers, quantity, and date(s) delivered.

The term “nonconforming product” includes nonconforming product returned from a customer.

Responsibility for review and authority for the disposition of nonconforming product and the process for approving personnel making these decisions is defined in the procedure.

CNC Dynamics determines, collects and analyses appropriate data to demonstrate the suitability and effectiveness of the quality management system and to evaluate where continual improvement of the quality management system can be made. The process for determining, collecting and analyzing this data is defined in the Management Responsibility procedure (AP-500). Appropriate data includes data generated as a result of monitoring and measurement and from other relevant sources.

▪ Characteristics and trends of processes and products including opportunities for preventive action

CNC Dynamics continually improves the effectiveness of the quality management system through the use of the quality policy, quality objectives, audit results, analysis of data, corrective and preventive actions and management review.

CNC Dynamics takes action to eliminate the cause of nonconformities in order to prevent recurrence. Corrective actions are appropriate to the effects of the nonconformities encountered.

▪ Flow down of the corrective action requirement to a supplier, when it is determined that the supplier is responsible for the root cause, and specific actions where timely and/or effective corrective actions are not achieved.

CNC Dynamics determines action to eliminate the causes of potential nonconformities in order to prevent their occurrence. Preventive actions are appropriate to the effects of the potential problems.
