Libra Industries Dayton Facility Passes 3 Audits for Aero/Defense, Manufacturing, Medical Certifications
September 13, 2021 | Libra IndustriesEstimated reading time: 2 minutes

Libra Industries, a privately-held systems integration and electronics manufacturing services (EMS) provider, is pleased to announce that its Dayton facility has passed surveillance audits for its AS9100D (aerospace-defense), ISO 9001:2015 (manufacturing) and ISO 13485:2016 (medical) certifications.
Jerry Faunt, Senior Vice President – Engineering & Quality, stated: “This is a significant achievement on the journey of continued certification, continual improvement and commitment to excellence. It is a journey, as the destination for improvement and excellence continually moves and shifts, and is great credit to the team members at Libra Industries… it is no secret that our greatest strength is our people and their ability to optimize themselves with process and technology to offer premier manufacturing and supply chain solutions to customers within the systems integration and electronics manufacturing sectors.”
These audits successfully established Dayton’s continuing certification in these international standards (same certification for both Dayton Systems Integration and Precision Machined Components divisions). These standards provide evidence to Libra’s customers in these fields that Dayton is capable of meeting their expectations for quality products and services at the highest level of operation.
The AS9100 Rev D SAE International Aerospace Standard includes ISO 9001:2015 quality management system requirements and specifies additional aviation, space and defense industry requirements, definitions and notes.
ISO 9001:2015 specifies requirements for a quality management system when an organization:
a) needs to demonstrate its ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, and
b) aims to enhance customer satisfaction through the effective application of the system, including processes for improvement of the system and the assurance of conformity to customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.
ISO 13485:2016 specifies requirements for a quality management system where an organization needs to demonstrate its ability to provide medical devices and related services that consistently meet customer and applicable regulatory requirements. Such organizations can be involved in one or more stages of the life-cycle, including design and development, production, storage and distribution, installation, or servicing of a medical device and design and development or provision of associated activities (e.g. technical support).
Libra Industries has worked hard to earn and maintain an impressive array of certifications and registrations such as ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 13485-2012, AS9100C:2009, UL, CSA, ITAR and FDA. From its six state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, Libra Industries serves a diverse base of industries such as medical, military/aerospace, industrial and LED lighting. The company seeks customers who require customized solutions with technically sophisticated manufacturing and quality requirements.
Libra Industries continues to invest to provide customized manufacturing solutions for its customers’ complex product requirements, through its broad range of capabilities, with the most capable manufacturing team in the industry.
