In the defence sector,
quality does not exist
without oversight, discipline and compliance.
This training prepares participants to understand AQAP 2110 requirements and apply them in practice within organisations carrying out design and production for the defence sector. We explain not only the standard itself, but also the logic behind NATO requirements, their relationship to ISO 9001:2015, and how to translate them into real quality, organisational and contractual decisions.
Why do organisations
need a stronger understanding of AQAP 2110?
The requirements are known, but practical application is more difficult
In many organisations, the issue is not access to AQAP 2110 requirements, but the lack of ability to translate them into real design, production and quality processes in a defence-sector operating environment.
NATO requirements are more specific than a standard quality system
Experience with ISO 9001 alone is often not enough when an organisation needs to understand the logic of AQAP standards and the expectations placed on defence suppliers in terms of oversight, conformity and accountability.
The different AQAP standards are not always clear to the team
Companies often know that AQAP is relevant to them, but do not fully understand the differences between the individual standards or which requirements actually apply to their operating model.
The organisation does not yet have people ready to run the system
Companies preparing to implement AQAP 2110 need people who understand not only the standard itself, but also its impact on roles, responsibilities and day-to-day quality oversight.
The relationship between AQAP 2110 and ISO 9001 is not always clear
When a company knows the general quality system but does not understand how it relates to NATO requirements, implementation becomes less coherent, more formalistic and harder to manage effectively.
Weak understanding of the requirements costs more than it seems at first
Misinterpretation of the standard, an unprepared team and poor integration of the requirements into daily practice increase quality, contractual and organisational risk.
We train in a way
that enables participants to understand and implement
This is not just a clause-by-clause review of the standard. We design the programme so that participants understand the logic of AQAP 2110, can relate the requirements to their own organisation, and can prepare the company in a structured way for implementation, maintenance or further development of a management system for defence suppliers. As a result, the training strengthens not only knowledge, but also the organisation’s ability to act in practice.
Training scope
- Structure of the standard and AQAP 2110 requirements
- Challenges related to implementing the AQAP 2110 management system
- Types of AQAP standards and their practical meaning
- Specific NATO requirements for the management system
- Links and differences between AQAP 2110 and ISO 9001:2015
- The role of people responsible for implementing and maintaining the AQAP 2110 system
- Translating the standard’s requirements into day-to-day quality oversight in design and production
What you gain
- Better understanding of the standard: participants learn to read AQAP 2110 not only formally, but also in the context of real cooperation with the defence sector.
- Readiness to run the system: the training supports people who act, or will act, as the AQAP 2110 / ISO 9001:2015 Management Representative, as well as those involved in implementation.
- Greater awareness of NATO requirements: the team gains a better understanding of the specific nature of defence requirements and their impact on the organisation, quality and oversight of delivery.
- A stronger systems approach: the organisation better understands how to connect AQAP 2110 requirements with its existing quality system and operating practice.
- Better implementation readiness: the company gains people who can translate AQAP 2110 requirements into real quality and organisational actions.
- Confirmation of participation: after the training, each participant receives a certificate of attendance and training materials.
