Free AS9100 Audit Readiness Checklist: 24 Yes/No Checks by AS9100D Clause (PDF)

Is your shop ready for its AS9100 audit? Find out in 10 minutes.

This free 2-page checklist gives you 24 yes/no checks grouped by AS9100D clause area (context and leadership, planning, support, operation, performance evaluation and improvement). It focuses on the areas where small aerospace shops most often get findings: calibration, PO flowdowns, traveler control, FAI, stamp control, nonconforming product, internal audit, management review, and corrective action.

Walk the shop with it. Mark Yes only if you could hand the auditor the evidence today. Every No is a likely finding, and the scoring guide tells you what to do next.
