M&M Group has recently received the Nadcap accreditation for Aero Structure Assembly after the audit carried out at the company’s facilities in Cadiz last January, with which the company renews this recognition for another year.
This Nadcap accreditation demonstrates M&M Group’s continuous and permanent commitment to quality, customer requirements and aerospace industry specifications. This recognition also entitles the group to be listed on the Qualified Qualified Manufacturers List (QML).
“Our commitment to excellence, reliability, innovation and continuous improvement is unwavering. M&M Group’s growth is possible thanks to the quality assurance in our processes and services, such as Aerostructure Assembly, which is fundamental in our manufacturing line,” said Domingo Ureña, CEO of M&M Group.
Jay Solomond, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Performance Review Institute (the entity that manages Nadcap accreditations), explains that “Nadcap accreditation is recognized worldwide as a hallmark of quality and is an important achievement. For many years, the aerospace industry has incorporated Nadcap into its approach to risk management as it demonstrates compliance with industry standards and customer requirements. I am delighted, therefore, that M&M Group has achieved Nadcap accreditation for Aerospace Structures Assembly, and that all their hard work over the years continues to pay off.”
