PEI-Genesis announces AS9100C:2009 certification

PEI-Genesis, Inc., one of the world's fastest assemblers of precision connectors and power supplies, has reached the achievement of AS9100C:2009 certification for its corporate headquarters and South Bend, IN production facility. Certification was awarded on June 5, 2014 following a two year investment in preparation and audit processes.

AS9100C:2009 is a rigorous quality management system for those in the aerospace industry. It includes all of the requirements of ISO 9001:2008 as well as additional measures. AS9100C:2009 requires documented systems for controlling the processes used to develop, manufacture and sell products.

“Our AS9100C:2009 certification demonstrates our commitment to being a world-class supplier to the aerospace industry,” says Russel Dorwart, President & COO, PEI-Genesis. “This was a rigorous endeavor that forced us to reevaluate every process that we use to develop, manufacture, and support our products and customers. As a result of this effort, we have elevated our excellent quality process to a truly world-class level. We're proud of our team for accomplishing this goal.”

As the world's largest Amphenol and ITT Cannon connector distributor and a leading TE/Deutsch distributor, PEI-Genesis is the only partner that guarantees assembly and shipment of connectors in 48 hours and power supplies in a week. PEI's automated assembly facilities are stocked with over $70 million of components from which it builds over 39,000 high reliability connectors a day, with a minimum order quantity of one piece. Using proprietary automation for speed, consistency, and quality, PEI-Genesis can build just 1 piece or 10,000 pieces with equal ease to any standard or customized specification.

“PEI-Genesis is a company that continually makes measurable improvements,” says Andy Stump, Site Manager at PEI-Genesis' South Bend, Indiana location. “Our customers in the aerospace industry demand flawless quality and we take our responsibility to serve them seriously. We are dedicated to continuing to provide fast delivery and flawless quality that exceeds their expectations.”
