Rationale: This standard has been significantly revised further defining process requirements and data expectations; restructuring the nonconformity documentation data and providing further definition of data descriptions; and providing process defect, cause, and corrective action codes. This standard was created to provide for the uniform submittal of nonconformance information for notification and/or approval when contractually invoked at any level or as guidance within the aviation, space, and defense industries. This standard can be invoked as a stand alone requirement or used in conjunction with AS/EN/JISQ series standards (i.e., 9100, 9110, 9120).
