Aerospace Standards Training
Process Control aligned with AS13006
The AS13006 standard has been developed by an SAE committee including representatives from the major aero engine manufacturers.
It sets the standard for implementing Process Control which allows effective management of variation to drive consistency in process
outputs and enable continuous improvement. Aerospace suppliers are required to ensure that processes are target set and stable (i.e. in
control) and assessed to check they are capable. This highly practical course will provide practitioner level training in the use of Statistical
Process Control and associated techniques.
