ABOUT US: Quality Assurance

ESSCO was the first ground-based radome supplier in the world certified to ISO 9001 and meets the requirements of MIL-Q-9858A.

Quality is a key element in the design and manufacture of ESSCO products. As a major supplier for commercial, government, and military customers, our quality assurance program attains the highest level of quality and complies with ISO 9001. ESSCO previously worked to MIL-Q- 9858A and NATO AQAP 4 until these standards were upgraded to the more encompassing ISO 9001.

ISO 9001 is a comprehensive international compliance standard specifying requirements in design, development, production, installation, and servicing. ESSCO's compliance to these requirements is periodically audited by an independent accrediting agency, TUV America.

ESSCO’s subsidiary, L-3 ECL, includes duplicate manufacturing facilities and produces a full range of radome products using identical manufacturing processes. ECL is also an ISO registered company, certified to ISO 9002, which addresses fabrication, installation, and servicing.

ESSCO’s commitment to quality is more than a compliance with specifications; it is an attitude and philosophy apparent in every aspect of our operations.
