Know where every part in your supply chain actually came from.

A working Counterfeit Part Prevention Plan, supplier vetting checklist, and audit scorecard — built for quality teams at small and mid-size aerospace and defense suppliers, not just prime contractors with a compliance department.

Aligned to AS9100D §8.1.4 and DFARS 252.246-7007 / -7008

SOURCING PRIORITY — WHERE COUNTERFEIT RISK ENTERS
01 — OCM Original manufacturer 02 — AUTHORIZED Franchised distributor 03 — QUALIFIED Aftermarket, documented 04 — OPEN MARKET Requires full inspection DETECTION LAYER Chain-of-custody Verified per lot Visual + electrical test IDEA-STD-1010 / AS6171 Quarantine on flag ESD-safe, labeled GIDEP / ERAI report Filed before confirmation

Most compliance content is written for a company with a compliance department. Most suppliers don't have one.

99%+
of confirmed counterfeit part cases trace back to non-authorized sourcing
2
DFARS clauses (252.246-7007 and -7008) that require a documented detection system, whether or not you have staff to write one

What's in the starter kit

Four documents, built to be filled in and used — not read once and filed away.

01

CPPP Template

A Counterfeit Part Prevention Plan mapped to AS9100D §8.1.4, with role assignments, sourcing priority, and an inspection protocol you fill in against your own process.

02

Supplier Vetting Checklist

A documentation checklist and red-flag list to run before qualifying a new supplier, or re-checking one you already use.

03

GIDEP / ERAI Quick-Start

The step-by-step for reporting a suspect part, written for someone who's never filed one before.

04

Self-Audit Scorecard

A scored checklist to gut-check your own system before an external AS9100 or DoD assessment finds the gap first.

Who this is built for

Built for the supplier vetting a Tier 2 vendor themselves — not a prime with a dedicated compliance team.

GOOD FIT
  • Quality managers at 20–200 person aerospace or defense suppliers
  • Procurement leads vetting distributors without a legal or compliance department behind them
  • Suppliers preparing for a first DFARS or AS9100 audit
NOT THE FOCUS
  • Large primes with an existing compliance department and legal counsel on retention
  • Companies outside aerospace/defense supply chains with no DFARS exposure
  • Anyone looking for legal advice in place of counsel — this is a working-document starting point, not a substitute for one
