Double Nadcap Merit Award for STS Defence’s Quality
16th May 2023STS Defence is pleased to announce our recent reaccreditation to the Nadcap quality standard AC7121 for Cable and Harness Assembly. During the accreditation audit we were judged to be operating at such a high standard of quality that we were awarded Merit status for the next 24 months. This follows on closely from our existing Merit status for Nadcap 7120 Printed Circuit Board Assembly already achieved earlier this year.
Managing Director, Jonathan Bowley said; “We are extremely proud of these quality awards, which make us one of only a very few companies operating in the UK at this high standard. This is a testament to our commitment to quality throughout everything we do and our dedication to meeting the demanding requirements of modern aerospace and defence systems.”
Nadcap is an industry-managed program that brings together technical experts from aerospace and defence companies to establish requirements for accreditation, identify best practices, and provide a standardized approach to quality assurance. Achieving Nadcap accreditation is no small feat, and it requires a rigorous process of audits and evaluations to ensure that all of our processes and procedures meet the highest standards.
Our successful Nadcap reaccreditations at Merit status mean that we have demonstrated consistent and reliable performance in our mission system manufacturing services with a long-term commitment to quality and excellence. The accreditations recognise our ability to deliver accurate and high-quality products to our customers, which is essential for ensuring the safety and reliability of critical aerospace and defence equipment.
Moreover, our Nadcap accreditations are a good example of our continued investment in our people, processes, and tools, which ensures a constantly improving service for our customers. Our teams have the expertise and resources to tackle even the most challenging electronics projects and deliver excellent results.
