TS EN 9131
Aerospace series - Quality Management Systems - Nonconformance Data Definition and Documentation
This European Standard defines the common nonconformance data definition and documentation that shall be exchanged between an internal/external supplier or sub-tier supplier, and the customer when informing about a nonconformity requiring formal decision. The requirements are applicable, partly or totally, when reporting a product nonconformity to the owner or operator, as user of the end item (e.g., engine, aircraft, spacecraft, helicopter), if specified by contract.
The process of exchanging, coordinating, and approving nonconformance data varies with the multiple relationships and agreements among all parties concerned. The information provided by this European Standard forms guidelines for submitting and managing of data through accurate communication. The main objective is to provide the definition of a data set that can be integrated into any form of communication (e.g., electronic data interchange, submission of conventional paper forms).
Reporting of nonconformance data, either electronically or conventionally on paper, is subject to the terms and conditions of the contract. This also includes, where applicable, data access under export control regulations.

About This Item
TS EN 9131 is the standard that establishes a common data definition and documentation structure for reporting nonconformities in the aerospace supply chain. It focuses on the information set exchanged between an internal or external supplier, a sub-tier supplier, and the customer when a nonconformity requires a formal decision.
Why a common nonconformance data set matters
In aerospace, a nonconformance is not just a defect description; it is part of a controlled process that can involve review, disposition, approval, and traceability. This standard provides a shared data framework so that nonconformance information can be communicated consistently, whether by electronic data interchange or by conventional paper forms. In general technical terms, such structuring helps reduce ambiguity, supports complete reporting, and makes it easier for different organizations to work with the same essential information.
What the standard covers and what it does not
- It addresses the definition and documentation of nonconformance data, not product design or manufacturing methods.
- It is intended for exchanges between suppliers and customers in formal nonconformance reporting.
- It may also apply to reporting product nonconformity to the owner or operator of an end item, if specified by contract.
- Electronic and paper reporting remain subject to the terms and conditions of the contract.
- Where applicable, data access may also be affected by export control regulations.
