About us
Quality & Compliance
AS9100 certification, ITAR registration and coordinated quality systems built for demanding and regulated programs.
Our approach
Documentation is part of the part
A component that meets print but arrives without traceable material certifications is not a finished deliverable in the markets we serve. SYNC treats the documentation package as part of the product: it ships with the parts, it reproduces on demand years later, and it does not carry a separate line item.
Bringing our companies together under coordinated quality systems was one of the largest benefits of becoming SYNC. Customers who buy from more than one of our plants now qualify one organization, audit one system, and receive one consistent set of records.
AS9100
Aerospace quality management system
AS9100 builds on ISO 9001 with the configuration management, risk management, first article inspection and counterfeit-parts controls that aerospace and defense customers require. Our certification governs how work is planned, verified and documented across the organization.
- Documented first article inspection (FAIR) on request
- Configuration and change control on tooling and compounds
- Nonconformance and corrective action tracking
- Supplier qualification and incoming inspection
ITAR Registered
International Traffic in Arms Regulations
SYNC is registered with the U.S. Department of State Directorate of Defense Trade Controls. Technical data covered by ITAR is handled under access controls, and all production covered by those programs is performed domestically by U.S. persons.
- Controlled handling of ITAR technical data
- Domestic manufacturing, U.S. persons only on controlled work
- Access-restricted drawing and file storage
- Export compliance review on inquiry
Standard practice
What ships with every order
These are not options. They are how we run every job, in every market, at every plant.
- Full lot traceability from raw compound to shipped part
- Certificates of conformance with every shipment
- Material certifications retained and reproducible
- In-process dimensional and durometer verification
- Documented process parameters per tool and cavity
- PPAP and FAIR documentation packages on request
