Bangalore, India - QuEST, a leading provider of engineering services, offering end-to-end product development and engineering solutions announced that it has received Airbus design approval and AS9100 certification. This will enable QuEST to work on upcoming Airbus programs like the A350 in the areas of engineering design, documentation and manufacturing engineering.

QuEST is currently supporting aerospace customers on global programs such as the Airbus 380 and Boeing 787, on airframe, engines and actuation systems.

"With the airframe platform integrators transferring more of the upfront investment and risk to their Tier-1's, Smiths has developed QuEST as its preferred engineering supplier to support its diverse businesses. These certifications will enable QuEST to operate in world class quality practices comparable to those at Airbus and Smiths," said Mr. John Payne, Operations Director, Smiths Aerospace.

"At QuEST, we strongly believe in continual improvement of processes. By upgrading our Quality Management System to the stringent AS9100 quality assurance standard and receiving the Airbus certification, we have been able to achieve the next level of robustness in both processes and their interrelation. This will facilitate increased opportunities for QuEST in the aerospace market," said Mr. Vijay Shrinivas, VP - Quality, QuEST.
