JOSCAR (the Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register) is an accreditation system developed by Hellios Information to support the aerospace, defence, and security industries. It is a collaborative tool used by major industry buyers to streamline and simplify the process of managing supplier compliance information. In practical terms, JOSCAR registration provides a centralised database that helps prime contractors and OEMs identify and manage trustworthy suppliers.
Registered suppliers have been thoroughly vetted and meet a wide range of pre-qualification requirements, including:
- Financial performance and stability
- Legal and regulatory compliance
- Health and safety protocols
- Cybersecurity and data protection
- Quality management systems
- Corporate social responsibility
Achieving registration means that Active-PCB Solutions has demonstrated compliance across all these critical areas, proving our ability to meet the expectations of the most demanding industry buyers.
