AS13100 Problem Solving Requirements for Aerospace Suppliers

Course Description
This 2-day seminar covers all phases of the team approach to identifying and solving problems, based on the problem-solving requirements defined by AS13000 using the eight-discipline (8D) methodology.

AS13100 and RM13000 define the Problem-Solving standard for suppliers within the aero-engine sector, with the Eight Disciplines (8D) problem solving method as the basis for this standard. Successful application of 8D achieves robust corrective and preventive actions to reduce the risk of repeat occurrences and minimize the cost of poor quality.

This seminar covers all training requirements as specified in Appendix C of AS13000.
