AS9102 FAI software

First article inspection software that starts from the ballooned drawing and finishes with cleaner AS9102 proof

GaugeFlow helps aerospace and precision manufacturing teams connect Form 1, Form 2, Form 3, material certs, drawing revisions, and characteristic results in one controlled workflow.

Ballooned drawings linked to results
Revision-aware inspection records

Buyer search intent

You are trying to make FAI less manual and less risky.

Form 3 characteristics are being rebuilt by hand from drawings and spreadsheets.
Material certs, special processes, and inspection results are not connected.
A revision change can turn a clean FAI into a paperwork hunt.

Why buyers bounce

The problem is not just software. It is confidence.

Ad traffic needs a page that says exactly what the buyer was searching for, shows the workflow, and gives them a clear next step without forcing a sales call.

Manual Form 3 work

Every balloon creates another place for copy-paste mistakes and missing tolerance context.

Disconnected evidence

The drawing, certs, test reports, gages, and approvals need to tell the same story.

Customer pushback

Small gaps in the packet can trigger rework even when the physical part is correct.

First week path

Go from drawing to FAI package without rebuilding the job twice

01

Upload and balloon

Capture the drawing requirements and keep the characteristic list tied to the source print.

02

Attach cert evidence

Connect material certs, process records, gage history, and inspection results to the FAI.

03

Review and approve

Use controlled review steps so the packet is ready before it reaches the customer.

Product proof

A first article workflow buyers can understand in seconds

The page speaks directly to the AS9102 searcher: not generic QMS, not ERP, but the specific pain of getting FAI records complete and defensible.

  • Characteristic accountability tied to balloon numbers
  • Part accountability and material/process evidence
  • Inspection result capture and review status
  • Controlled records for customer and auditor review
  • Private deployment options for controlled programs

Reduce the three doubts aerospace buyers bring to the page

It is specific to AS9102, so aerospace buyers do not have to translate generic QMS language.
The workflow shows where certs, drawings, and results connect before checkout.
Private and self-hosted deployment language helps ITAR-conscious buyers stay comfortable.

Make the FAI packet easier to build and easier to defend.
