SC21 Gold represents the highest performance standard for the UK aerospace, defence, security and space supply chains, requiring sustained excellence in both delivery and quality performance. CCP Gransden is currently the only UK composites manufacturer operating at SC21 Gold level, reflecting a consistent and disciplined approach to operational performance.
Achieving and maintaining Gold status requires organisations to consistently demonstrate:
- Delivery performance of 99.0–100%
- Quality performance of 99.90–100%
At CCP Gransden, SC21 is embedded within day‑to‑day operations rather than treated as a standalone framework. This approach enables our teams to maintain the highest standards across processes, governance and delivery, supporting demanding supply chain requirements on a sustained basis.
As part of the SCS feature, Stephen Cuthbertson, Manufacturing Systems Manager at CCP Gransden, shares insight into what operating at SC21 Gold level means in practice, including how the framework is applied across the business and the discipline required to maintain performance over time.
