General This document is intended to prescribe consistent requirements for CSI management for organizations and suppliers who perform work for prime contractors receiving direct contracts from U.S. government agencies (i.e.@ first-tier or prime suppliers). The contractor@ which receives the initial government contract@ will receive their CSI requirements directly from the U.S. government agency and will be required per those contracts to maintain a CSI management system that ensures compliance to all requirements. The flow down of this document shall be in addition to any specific contract clauses (e.g.@ Federal Acquisition Regulations@ Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations) required by the government to be flowed by contract to sub-tier sources. Application This standard will be auditable with the expectation that the prime contractor will flow CSI requirements to the supply chain and periodically assess@ audit@ validate@ and recognize compliance to AS9017 per their own processes. All manufacturers of CSIs shall comply with the requirements of SAE AS9100 or a technically equivalent quality management system standard. Special process suppliers may meet this quality management system requirement through their Nadcap certification. Any operation@ process@ or other action associated with the new manufacture/production of any CSI@ shall only be performed by sources meeting the applicable requirements of this document.
