implement robust processes for quality standardization, documentation, risk management and component traceability. Implementing those processes took us just over a year and has since been applied business-wide across the production of systems intended for applications across defense, marine, automotive and beyond. On the surface, the benefit of AS9100 is that it allows us to offer our solutions to partners with a First Article Inspection Report, so that subsequent units reference an agreed standard, which noticeably reduces friction in development cycles. But perhaps more importantly, AS9100 certification signals that we understand the realities of aerospace production and the context in which our systems are being deployed and assembled. Furthermore, it shows that we can be relied on to safely contribute to these complex projects, as we are aware of the logistical and
