Another Aerospace certification success

We are delighted that another of our clients has achieved a certification to the Aerospace and Defence AS9120 Standard.  This was achieved at the first attempt and without adverse comments or non-conformities.

Our Client, Princeps Electronics, based in Harlow on the Harlow Business Centre in Coldharbour Lane is an independent  supplier of electronic components and associated items.  They supply items from manufacturers and franchised distributors as well as sourcing components that are obsolete or hard to get. The thing that sets Princeps apart is their counterfeit avoidance service which gives customers confidence that the items supplied are genuine and new.

We have been consultants to Princeps since they started in 2006 and have helped them move from an unaccredited quality mark through to a UKAS accredited Quality Management System ISO9001 and now to AS9120:2009.

Dan Hughes the M.D believes that Princeps is one of only 3 or 4 independent component suppliers in the UK that  have achieved this hard won AS9120 Standard.  He said "Our Quality Manager,  Ian Walker,  has really put in an enormous amount of work to get us through the AS9120 Standard and we are all very pleased at our achievement."

Their Consultant from Quality Matters, Chris Eden says "AS9120 is a huge undertaking  and is awarded only to organisations that than can prove that they meet this  very exacting Standard.  Moreover to attain a clean sheet at both the Stage one and Stage two assessment is very rare and a tribute to everyone at Princeps." 
Well done.
