Why implement a quality management system?

In the aerospace industry, where global competition is fierce, quality is of paramount importance. Sacrificing quality leads to higher costs, thereby undermining profitability and reputation. Quality in the aerospace industry even has its own standard: EN 9100, covering the entire value chain for civil and military aircraft, including airplanes, helicopters, and, more recently, drones and spacecraft for the aerospace sector.
