AS6081: Counterfeit Electronics Prevention for Distributors (CEPD)

What is COUNTERFeIT ELECTRONICS PREVENTION FOR DISTRIBUTORS (CEPD) Accreditation?

ANAB Accreditation for Counterfeit Electronics Prevention for Distributors (CEPD) certification for Certification Bodies as a subordinate certification of organizations that distribute electronic parts and components under certified Quality Management System.

ANAB is the only Accreditation Body offering a certification program, that supports the aviation, space and defense (ASD) industry requirements for the prevention of counterfeit parts in the distribution process. ANAB has worked with the defense industry and the Anti-Counterfeit Avoidance Group (ACAG) since its development of the first Aerospace Standards in defining the processes, procedures, and methods of counterfeit parts prevention.

ANAB personnel have worked closely with the ACAG in harmonizing the needs of the ASD and the regulatory requirements to develop a critical certification program that covers a key component of the electronics parts and components supply chain.
