Trace-ready aircraft parts
Aviation buyers review paperwork before any purchase — FAA 8130-3, EASA Form 1, CoC, ATA 106 trace pack, mill certs, and chain-of-custody. PartsPerk confirms what the supplier will provide before a quote moves forward, so a missing document never blocks an aircraft after the PO is cut. We do not certify airworthiness; suppliers issue the documents and buyers verify.
Airworthiness approval tag for new and overhauled parts from FAA-approved sources. Required by most operator quality systems for installable rotables and components.
European equivalent to 8130-3, accepted under bilateral agreements. Provided when the supply chain originates with an EASA-approved source.
Material certification with traceability back to the last operator or OEM source. Standard for used-serviceable, surplus, and parts-out material.
Supplier statement that the part conforms to PO requirements and any cited specifications. Issued by the producing or distributing supplier.

Issue release / receipt document for material moving through the DoD supply system, paired with NSN-level pedigree where applicable.
Approved alternate to OEM under PMA when the article is FAA-approved for the application. Surfaced explicitly so the buyer chooses, not the supplier.
