About AS9102 Form 1
Form 1 of AS9102 Rev C — Part Number Accountability — is the first sheet of every aerospace First Article Inspection Report. It identifies the part, the revision, the manufacturing organization, the customer purchase order, and the type of FAI being submitted (detail or assembly, full or partial). For partial FAIs, it documents the baseline part and the reason for re-submission.
Tier-2 and Tier-3 aerospace suppliers in India submitting to TASL (Tata Advanced Systems), Bharat Forge, HAL, Mahindra Aerospace, and direct-to-OEM (Boeing, Airbus) all require Form 1, 2, and 3 as a complete package. This builder produces a print-ready Form 1 that can be saved as PDF via your browser (Ctrl/Cmd + P → Save as PDF). For the characteristic-level Form 3, use the AS9102 Form 3 Builder.
Five Form 1 mistakes auditors flag most often: (1) Partial FAI without a baseline part number reference, (2) FAI submitted against a drawing revision that doesn't match the part revision in field 5/7, (3) missing customer approval signature when the contract requires it, (4) no manufacturing process reference (field 8) for parts with special processes (heat treat, NDT, plating), and (5) Assembly FAI without a sub-tier index — required when the assembly contains parts from suppliers other than the FAI-issuing organization.
