Cirexx Kicks-Off 6-Month Mission To Achieve AS9100B

Cirexx International, Inc., a high reliability and MIL-certified manufacturer of complex printed circuit boards, announced today that they have begun a 6-month internal audit process for achieving AS9100B certification. This certification path will provide Cirexx with a highly effective Quality Management System (QMS) that meets the rigors of military and aerospace customer expectations while strengthening the company’s dedication to quality, on-time delivery, and continuous improvement throughout the company.

Cirexx now holds the ISO 9001:2000 certification that they received in June, 2003. Driving toward completion of the AS9100B certification will enable Cirexx to further solidify their commitment to being a valued partner in the avionics, aerospace, military, and medical industries.

The AS9100B certification was developed using the ISO 9001, AS9000, and EN9000-1 quality standards and builds upon their requirements to produce the first standard available for use across the global aerospace community. AS9100B adds the additional requirements necessary to address both civil/military aviation and aerospace needs. Developed in 1999 and revised in 2000, the AS9100B standard specifies approximately 80 additional requirements - and 18 amplifications - of ISO's 9001:2000 standard. Although designed directly for the aerospace industry, both the ISO 9001:2000 and AS9100B contain requirements that aim to ensure quality product, process efficiency, on-time delivery, accurate documentation, and enhanced customer satisfaction across multiple industries.

Cirexx has obtained qualification for military specification MIL-PRF-31032/4A for 16 layer rigid-flex products and MIL-PRF-31032/1B for 22 layer rigid products effective September 22, 2008. This qualification allows Cirexx's technology and rapid turn-around capabilities to be accessed by defense and aerospace customers. Qualification to MIL-PRF-31032 further allows Cirexx to produce product to MIL-PRF-55110 through the reciprocal certification clause in Appendix B of MIL-PRF-55110F.

“My team and I are incredibly excited with our successful Mil qualification completion,” said, Philipp Menges, Managing Director, Cirexx Intl. Cirexx International has been a driving force in high technology PCB’s and assemblies for 28 years and our Mil qualification for 31032 now allows bleeding edge programs and high-end defense customers to take advantage of our superior manufacturing abilities, lead times and second-to-none engineering support.

The Defense Supply Center located in Columbus, Ohio (DSCC) is the largest supplier of weapon systems spare parts and end items for the Department of Defense. To achieve certification, products must be manufactured in the United States and pass stringent laboratory analysis. Specific product characteristics are published by DSCC in its Quality Manufacturers List (QML). Further information can be obtained via their website at www.dscc.dla.mil.
