PAE Interim President and CEO Charlie Peiffer said the most recent certification puts PAE at the forefront of aerospace and aviation innovation.

“The beginning of 2022 kicked off with PAE’s impressive AS9100D certification showing our continued dedication to leading the industry in aerospace and aviation,” Peiffer said. “Our performance excellence team has continued to make dynamic decisions to anticipate our customers’ comprehensive needs by accomplishing this certification within six months.”

PAE Director of Performance Excellence for GMS John Bennett and Vice President of Readiness and Sustainment Cristal Rice led the efforts to achieve the AS9100D certification.

“Achieving the AS9100D certification takes PAE’s aviation capabilities to the next level,” Bennett said. “This certification positions PAE to be more flexible in the aerospace sector and compete for more complex contracts.”

The British Standards Institution awarded PAE the certification after an extensive audit that found PAE conformed to the certification standards.
