ASA has carefully defined the procedures within ASA-100 to assure that aircraft parts distributors can adopt appropriate aerospace practices. In addtion, the standard was created to comply with FAA Advisory Circular 00-56A. We ask that all companies applying and re-applying for ASA-100 accreditation, thoroughly review the ASA-100 Standard.
ASA has created a tool called a letter of Interpretation (LI). LIs are used to provide guidance regarding ASA-100 and/or FAA AC 00-56A. LIs are required if applicable to your business. Each LI addresses requirements and future expectations. To review the active LIs, please see the list below.
The QM Template is a guide to help companies create a
manual that encompasses all the elements of ASA-100 and FAA
AC 00-56A. The Template will assist a distributor in
creating the manual, however the distributor will need to
make sure that their system is in compliance with ASA-100
and FAA AC 00-56A. New companies interested in becoming
ASA-100 accredited have used the template as assistance in
writing their Quality Assurance Manual.
The cost for using the QM Template is $350 for ASA Members and $550 for non-ASA Members. If you are interested in purchasing the template, please contact Stephanie Brown.
