Quality isn’t just a department here; it’s the job. Every part, every time.
Managing Director
Certified, Structured, and Audit-Ready
Kristek is certified to AS9100 and ISO 9001, with a Quality Management System built for consistency, compliance, and continuous improvement. We welcome audits from customers and certifying bodies — using them to strengthen our systems, not just tick boxes.
Our QMS includes:
Integrated with Production Control
Our MRP system ties quality directly into the production process. It manages:
- Quotes, works orders, and job routing
- Material stock and batch-level traceability
- Shop floor data collection and scheduling
This ensures traceability, control, and real-time visibility from order to delivery — helping us stay production-focused and audit-ready.
Quality-Driven Process Control
Every job follows a structured inspection process:
- First-Offs are verified by the Quality Department using a documented quality plan
- In-process checks are carried out by operators and signed off
- Final inspections confirm all specifications, finish, and documentation prior to release
Non-conforming parts are tagged, quarantined, and reviewed with full root cause and corrective action — involving staff at all levels.
We support AS9102 FAIRs and adapt our documentation to customer needs where required.
Measured, Recorded, and Retained
We measure what matters:
- In Full, On Time, In Specification (IFOTIS)
- Leading indicators to prevent downstream issues
Performance is reviewed weekly to support continuous improvement and accountability.
All quality records are scanned and securely stored digitally for 10+ years, or longer if contractually required — ensuring full traceability long after delivery.

QMS related FAQ’s
We primarily serve the automotive testing, aerospace, defence, power generation, as well as various OEMs. Our AS9100 certification makes us a trusted partner for products with strict quality and traceability requirements.
Yes – by default all orders receive a C of C, included. However, we can also provide full First Article Inspection (FAI) reports and dimensional inspection reports, if required. All inspections are carried out in-house using calibrated CMM and precision tools. For FAI we use the AS9102 standard but can use customer specific reports too.
Our core focus is batch work, and production. Our systems and processes are developed around being able to supply consistent and reliable parts with high-quality standards.
That being said, some customers need a verification batch or initial design before they go into production, we can help with this too.
We routinely machine to tight tolerances based on customer specifications and part complexity. Typical tolerances range from ±0.005mm to ±0.015mm, depending on the material and geometry. Tolerance capabilities will be confirmed during the technical review, before a quote is produced.
Yes. Kristek Precision is fully AS9100 Certified, which means our quality management system meets the aerospace and defence industry’s standards. We follow rigorous inspection and documentation protocols on every job.
