Hill Manufacturing & Fabrication Achieves AS9100 Certification

Broken Arrow, OK – Hill Manufacturing & Fabrication is proud to announce that it has achieved AS9100 certification, marking a significant milestone in the company’s continued commitment to quality, operational excellence, and strategic growth.

AS9100 is an internationally recognized quality management standard developed specifically for the aviation, space, and defense industries. Building upon ISO 9001, the standard establishes additional requirements for risk management, product safety, traceability, and process control.

For Hill, this achievement represents both a return to its roots and an investment in its future.

The company previously held AS certification more than 20 years ago but transitioned to ISO 9001 as its customer base and manufacturing requirements evolved. Today, as Hill continues to diversify its customer and industry mix, AS9100 certification positions the company to pursue new opportunities in aerospace, defense, and other industries with demanding quality requirements.

The certification also reflects the strength of Hill’s team and the systems developed throughout the organization.

“I’m incredibly proud of our team and what we’ve accomplished. The fact that they successfully navigated this process while I was away speaks volumes about the people, processes, and systems we’ve built. Achieving AS9100 certification is an important step as we continue to grow, diversify, and strengthen our ability to serve customers in demanding industries,” said Mike Payne, President of Hill Manufacturing & Fabrication.

Earning the certification required a coordinated effort across Hill’s operations, demonstrating the effectiveness of its quality management system and the dedication of its employees to maintaining consistent, reliable manufacturing processes.

As Hill celebrates its 50th anniversary, this achievement further strengthens the company’s foundation for continued growth and reinforces its commitment to delivering dependable manufacturing solutions to its customers.
