    CDI-Aerospace's Quality program encompasses the definition of the product that we provide our customers. This product definition ensures that our deliverable, whether it is a simple design change or a complex analysis, will be on time, within budget and right-the-first-time. Bureau Veritas Quality International (NA) Inc. has certified CDI's Quality System to the ISO-9001 / AS-9100 requirements.
