What it's for.
The First Article Inspection Report (FAIR) is a detailed quality verification performed on the first production part from a new or modified process. Required by AS9102 in aerospace and widely used across manufacturing, this template ensures that parts meet all dimensional, material, and functional requirements before full production begins. The FAIR process catches design or manufacturing issues early, preventing costly production of non-conforming parts. This template guides inspectors through complete verification of all characteristics, with documented evidence and traceability to calibrated measurement equipment.
Key features
- Complete part and drawing identification
- Characteristic-by-characteristic verification
- Actual measurement results vs. specification limits
- Measurement equipment and method documentation
- Material certification and test results linking
- AS9102 compliant format and documentation
Ideal for
- Quality engineers verifying new product launches
- Aerospace suppliers meeting AS9102 requirements
- Machine shops validating new setups and programs
- Manufacturing engineers approving process changes
Common uses
- Qualifying new CNC programs and setups
- Verifying parts from new suppliers or outsource partners
- Confirming engineering changes are correctly implemented
- Validating equipment after major maintenance or rebuild
