Exciting AESQ Supplier Forums in 2024!

Plan now to attend an Aero Engine Supplier Quality (AESQ) Supplier Forum to learn the latest on the SAE AS13100™ AESQ Quality Management System Requirements for Aero Engine Design and Production Organizations Standard and deployment. 

Aero Engine Manufacturers are required to flow down regulatory and customer requirements to their supply chain.  Because of the product complexity and links to safety, they tend to include more stringent requirements than the rest of the aircraft systems and components.  AS13100 was created to replace customer specific quality requirements – leading to simplification and harmonization between engine manufacturer supply chains. 

AESQ Supplier Forums are hosted by the AESQ Consortium and include presentations by Senior Leadership from AESQ member companies responsible for Supplier Selection and Management. 

What are the benefits of attending a Supplier Forum?

  • Be part of the development and discussion on key issues critical to aerospace
  • Learn about new quality requirements
  • Gain insights from companies that have successfully deployed these defect prevention approaches
  • Network with industry leaders and your peers

AESQ offers three opportunities to participate in Supplier Forums in 2024 including:

  • April 25 - Tokyo, Japan
  • June 12-13 - Trollhatten, Sweden
  • October 16-17 -  U.S. West Coast
