Product Assessment
This Product Audit has been conducted by Fairchild Controls to determine the extent of product conformity demonstrated by the supplier
based on criteria selected from the SAE Aerospace Standard, AS9100. Fairchild Controls has assessed the capability and readiness of
the Suppliers Production Management Process and its ability to ensure compliant product in accordance with Purchase Order
requirements. We have evaluated the effectiveness of the manufacturing processes and their ability to meet these specified objectives.
During this audit we have reviewed the Quality Management System, Process Documentation, Manufacturing Processes and Process
Controls directly related to Fairchild Controls product. The following audit results have been reviewed with the suppliers authorized
representative.

Nonconformance:
When, during the audit, conditions are identified that indicate the requirements of the Standard are not fully compliant, the nonconforming condition
shall be included in this report and documented on a Corrective Action Request (CAR) in accordance with GEN-QAI1401. The nonconformance will
be classified according to risk, as Major or Minor. Observations will be documented in this report for follow-up at a later date.

Major Nonconformance:
The requirement has not been met. Evidence indicates one or more of the following:
Systemic failure of the Management System
Condition could result in the delivery of nonconforming product
Condition could result in the failure or reduced usability of product or service

Major Findings

Minor Nonconformance:
The requirement has not been fully met. Evidence indicates one or more of the following:
a. Non-Systemic, not likely to result in the failure of the Management System
b. Condition is an isolated occurrence

Minor Findings

Observations:
The requirement has been marginally met. No corrective action is required at this time. Follow-up in this specific area is required during the next audit period or as indicated in this section
