TS EN 9101
Aerospace series - Quality management systems - Requirements for conducting audits of aviation, space, and defence quality management Systems
1.1 General This document defines requirements for the preparation and execution of the audit process. In addition, it defines the content and composition for the audit reporting of conformity and process effectiveness to the EN 9100-series standards, the organization’s QMS documentation, and customer and statutory/regulatory requirements. The requirements in this document are additions or represent changes to the requirements and guidelines in the standards for conformity assessment, auditing, and certification as published by ISO/IEC (i.e. ISO/IEC 17000:2020, ISO/IEC 17021 1). When there is conflict with these standards, the requirements of this document take precedence. NOTE 1 In this document, the term “EN 9100-series standards” comprises the EN 9100, EN 9110, and EN 9120 standards; developed by the IAQG and published by various national standards bodies. NOTE 2 In addition to this document, the IAQG publishes deployment support material on the IAQG website (see http://www.iaqg.org) that can be used by audit teams, when executing the audit process. 1.2 Application This document is intended to be used for audits of EN 9100-series standards by Certification Bodies (CBs) for certification of organizations, under the auspices of the ASD industry certification scheme [also known as the Industry Controlled Other Party (ICOP) scheme]. The ICOP scheme requirements are defined in the EN 9104-series standards (i.e. FprEN 9104-1, prEN 9104-2, EN 9104 3). NOTE Relevant parts of this document can also be used by an organization in support of internal audits (1st party) and external audits at suppliers (2nd party).

About This Item
TS EN 9101 is a standard focused on how audits of aerospace, aviation, and defence quality management systems are prepared and performed. For organisations working to the EN 9100 family, it provides a common framework for evaluating not only conformity, but also process effectiveness, and for reporting audit outcomes in a consistent way. In practice, that makes it more than a checklist: it connects audit planning, execution, and reporting into one disciplined audit method.
Audit planning and reporting structure
The scope of the document defines requirements for preparing and carrying out the audit process, and it also defines the content and composition of audit reporting for conformity and process effectiveness against the EN 9100-series standards, the organisation’s QMS documentation, and customer as well as statutory or regulatory requirements. In general technical terms, this means an audit is expected to look beyond the existence of documented procedures and assess whether processes are actually planned, controlled, and effective in operation. EN 9101 therefore supports a shared audit language aimed at consistency, traceability, and comparability across the aerospace supply chain.
Use with the EN 9100 family
This standard is intended for audits of the EN 9100-series standards, which comprise EN 9100, EN 9110, and EN 9120. Broadly speaking, EN 9100 relates to aerospace quality management for design and manufacturing organisations, EN 9110 to maintenance organisations, and EN 9120 to distributors and stockist-type organisations. TS EN 9101 helps align the audit approach across these different business types while keeping the findings tied to the relevant customer and regulatory expectations. It can also be used, where relevant, to support internal audits and supplier audits.
