Hi-Tek Manufacturing has served the gas turbine industries since 1980. Our commitment to giving customers the highest quality products is evident with our ISO certifications and Nadcap accreditation. ISO certification means a company follows international standards to ensure their products or services are reliable, safe, and high quality. Companies who do business internationally can then understand the quality they are getting when purchasing from and ISO certified company from another part of the world.
Nadcap, which stands for the National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program, was started in 1990 by SAE International. It is a cooperative accreditation program which is used globally for anyone in the defense, aerospace engineering, or closely related industries. Administration of the program is done by the Performance Review Institute (PRI).
Membership within Nadcap includes prime contractors that are responsible for coordinating with suppliers in the aerospace industry to develop audit criteria for products and special processes that are industry wide. Nadcap then, through PRI, provides independent certification of manufacturing processes for aerospace and related industries. This distinction helps to provide customers and consumers with the highest quality manufactured components possible.
It all begins with an audit by an approved auditor who is an industry professional. Any concerns or issues that arise during the audit are reported and PRI administers and closes the report with the supplier. When this is done, PRI presents the information to a special process task group. This group is made up of industry professionals who review and vote on it to be approved or denied.
Nadcap provides accreditation for a wide range of industries related to aerospace and defense industries such as coatings, composites, heat treating, nondestructive testing, welding, and more. PRI is headquartered in the U.S., but has offices in London, Japan, and Beijing.
