AS9100D is the 2016 revision of the aerospace Quality Management System (QMS) standard. It augments ISO 9001:2015 with aerospace-specific requirements for risk-based thinking, product safety, counterfeit-parts prevention, configuration management, and stringent supplier controls to ensure the safety and reliability of aviation, space, and defense products and services.

AS9100D

A global standard for quality management systems focusing on continuous improvement and customer satisfaction.

ISO 9001:2015

NAVSEA Technical Publication S9074‑AR‑GB‑01/278 establishes the mandatory requirements for qualifying welding and brazing procedures, welders, brazers, and nondestructive examination for U.S. Navy submarine hull structures and critical components. Compliance demonstrates proven procedure qualification records (PQRs), documented welder/brazer performance qualifications (WPQs/BPQs), and adherence to stringent acceptance criteria for high‑reliability pressure‑hull and non‑pressure structural welds.

NAVSEA S9074‑AR‑GB‑01/278

Registration under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), 22 CFR §122, with the U.S. Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC). It authorizes a U.S. person or entity to manufacture, export, or broker defense articles, defense services, or related technical data listed on the United States Munitions List (USML), and is prerequisite to obtaining ITAR export licenses or Technical Assistance Agreements.

ITAR Registration

An FFL Type 07, issued under 27 CFR §478 by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), permits the licensee to manufacture, assemble, and sell firearms and ammunition (excluding destructive devices). Holders may also engage in gunsmithing and are eligible to register as Special Occupational Taxpayers (SOTs) for manufacturing NFA items when paired with the appropriate SOT class.

Federal Firearms License – Type 07

The design, manufacturing, and integration of high‐precision components, systems, and subsystems for commercial aircraft and military platforms, with emphasis on meeting stringent certifications such as AS9100, ITAR, and MIL‐STD. Priorities include advanced materials, rigorous quality assurance, and robust engineering to ensure reliability in mission‐critical applications.

Aerospace & Defense

Precision-machined flight-control linkages, titanium hard-mount brackets and welded hydraulic manifolds supplied to Tier-1 aerospace and defense OEMs under AS9100 and ITAR compliance.

The design, fabrication, and assembly of diverse products across multiple end‐use industries or specialized, project‐based needs. Emphasis is on versatility, custom solutions, and broad expertise to handle unique or varied manufacturing projects outside of more narrowly defined sectors.

General Manufacturing

Multi-axis machined housings, stainless pump shafts and welded structural frames for capital-equipment builders and industrial OEMs requiring ±0.0005 in tolerances and rapid prototype-to-production transition.

Frank Roth Co., Inc. is a precision manufacturer based in Stratford, Connecticut delivering multi-axis CNC turning, milling and certified welding of high-alloy steels, titanium and exotic metals. Operating under AS9100 D, ISO 9001:2015, ITAR registration and NAVSEA welding qualification, the company supplies tight-tolerance flight-critical hardware, weapons-grade components and rugged industrial parts. A 15,000 sq ft climate-controlled plant houses 5-axis mill-turn centers, sub-spindle lathes, robotic weld cells and Zeiss CMMs supported by mechanical- and electrical-engineer staff. Lean disciplines, real-time SPC and in-process inspection ensure <0.8 Cpk drift while maintaining responsive lead times for prototype through medium-volume production.

15,000 sq ft climate-controlled plant (built 1962) housing multi-axis CNC machining, NAVSEA-certified TIG/MIG welding bays, full toolroom, Zeiss CMM inspection lab and dedicated assembly/test benches; located two miles from I-95 and Sikorsky Airport for efficient logistics.
