The facility in Rapid City, South Dakota receives specific certification for the design and manufacture of high-performance, low-drift IMUs. Built upon ISO 9001 standards, AS9100 incorporates essential aerospace-specific requirements including risk management, configuration control, and product traceability that many aviation, space, and defense programs require prior to supplier qualification.
