ST-05: Industry Response to Counterfeits: SAE AS9100D Requirements for Counterfeit Part Control
Class Overview
The International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) released SAE AS9100D - Quality Management Systems - Requirements for Aviation, Space, and Defense Organizations in September of 2016.  Although counterfeit parts have been a concern in the military and aerospace industries for years, this version of SAE AS9100 includes requirements for counterfeit parts prevention. The class will provide background information and statistics about counterfeit electronic parts, discuss the requirements of SAE AS9100D as they relate to counterfeit parts and review several options for meeting those requirements.  In addition, this class discusses several best practices including a documented counterfeit mitigation program, obsolescence management, the GIDEP (Government Industry Data Exchange Program) and ERAI databases which are repositories of counterfeit part information, and the InterCEPT training modules which can be used to meet the training requirements for SAE AS9100D.
