The implementation of quality management, management systems and their auditing as well as product assurance guarantees excellent research results, research products and services at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR).

Responsibility for the quality of processes and thus of research products and services and all activities required to ensure and maintain this quality is assumed by the institutes and facilities themselves. The quality of work results is created at the respective workplaces. All DLR employees are therefore jointly responsible for the fulfilment of DLR's quality objectives and are personally responsible for their implementation at their workplace.

As the basis for our actions, we at DLR have established the international standard DIN EN ISO 9001 for the implementation of quality management throughout our research organisation. The DLR Quality Management Officer, who is also Head of Quality and Product Assurance, is responsible for the DLR Management system, its compliance and further development.
