The Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register (JOSCAR) is a collaborative tool used by the aerospace, defence and security industry to act as a single repository for pre-qualification and compliance information.

Using JOSCAR can determine if a supplier is fit for business.

“Pre-qualification and full compliance on the Hellios Information JOSCAR supplier accreditation register streamlines work-flow agreements and ensures the sustainability of our long-term customer relationships. Muirhead Avionics’ ongoing commitment to our customers in the aerospace, defence, and security industries is underpinned by this reassuring accreditation,” said Steve Wells, Managing Director and Divisional Vice President of Muirhead Avionics.
