Aerospace & Defense Quality Management

Quality systems that are
always audit-ready.

Primara Quality Consulting pairs hands-on AS9100 expertise with a modern QMS platform — so your documentation, records, and metrics are inspection-ready every day, not just the week before an audit.

What we do

Consulting that stands up the system — software that keeps it running.

We help aerospace and defense manufacturers build, certify, and sustain a quality management system — then hand you a platform that makes it effortless to maintain.

AS9100 & ISO 9001 Implementation

Gap analysis to certification. We build a right-sized system your team will actually use.

Audit Readiness & Internal Audits

Mock audits, internal audit programs, and corrective-action coaching that survives the CB visit.

QMS Platform Deployment

Stand up the Primara QMS, migrate your controlled documents, and train your team end to end.

Supplier Quality & CAPA

Supplier approval, SCARs, and closed-loop corrective action that actually prevents recurrence.

The Primara QMS Platform

One connected system — from quote to delivery.

Purpose-built for aerospace and defense machine shops. Every record is linked, controlled, and inspection-ready by default.

Built for you

Your process, your system — never a cookie-cutter box.

The Primara QMS isn't a rigid, take-it-or-leave-it program you have to reshape your operation around. We configure it to the way your shop actually runs — your workflows, your terminology, your part numbering, and your approval routing — so the system fits what you do instead of forcing you to fit it. You get the best system for your process, not whatever happened to come in the box.

Configured to your workflow

Forms, routing, roles, and terminology are tailored to how your team already works — not a generic template you have to bend around.

Grows with your shop

Start with what you need today and switch on modules as you scale — from document control to full digital-thread traceability.

Standards that fit your world

Mapped to the standards your customers and auditors expect — shaped to your specific requirements, not a one-size-fits-all checklist.

Aerospace and defense is our home turf — but the same connected, audit-ready system is just as at home in oil & gas and API shops. If you run to a standard, we can shape Primara around it.

Why Primara

Built by quality people, for quality people.

Primara isn't a generic software vendor bolting a "quality" label onto a database. Our system was forged on the shop floor of a real aerospace machine shop — by the people who lived the audits, the escapes, and the 2 a.m. corrective actions.

  • Consulting and software under one roof — no finger-pointing between vendors.
  • Right-sized for small and mid-size manufacturers, not bloated enterprise suites.
  • We speak AS9100, FAI, PPAP, and DPAS — not just "compliance."
  • Deployed and supported by people who've run the quality department.

"The goal isn't to pass the audit. The goal is a system so clean that the audit is a formality."
