EVERETT, Wash. - s4story -- For years, aerospace and industrial suppliers operated under one assumption:

Boeing International Film: "The Shields Of Death – Exposing Decades Of Uncertified Corruption" https://youtu.be/zweWbsIGc7o



If a certification body (registrar) said your ISO 9001, AS9100 and derivative certificates or internationally accredited ANAB equivalent certifications were accredited, they were accredited.But the Accreditation Body for the United States — ANAB —that sets the standard for international accreditation bodies, published an extraordinary and deeply troubling statement on its own website:

"Is your certificate accredited? If your certificate was issued by a registrar accredited by ANAB, the answer is probably yes."

The global aviation, medical, industrial, automotive, and defense sectors must ask one critical question: What does probably mean when lives, aircraft, medical implants, defense hardware, and global supply-chain integrity are at stake?

In high-risk environments — jet engines, nondestructive testing, orthopedic devices, avionics, nuclear components —"Probably accredited" becomes unofficial, unsafe, and functionally invalid.

Accreditation must be absolute, documented, and verifiable — never a probability.

THE FORCED INVALID CERTIFICATE: How Boeing Spread Risk Worldwide

Because Boeing went two decades (2002–2025) without an active, published AS9100 certification — yet continued demanding AS9100 from its global supply chain — the company effectively:

• Operated without the very certification it enforced on others
• Pushed an invalid certification structure onto the worldwide AS9100 community

Boeing required compliance under a system it did not meet —and ANAB's own "probably yes" language admits accreditation was never guaranteed, never absolute, never fully validated.
This created a global cascade across aerospace, medical, automotive, industrial machining, defense electronics, composites, logistics, and materials industries.
When the top of the pyramid breaks, everything beneath it inherits the risk.

THE BOEING GAP: TWO DECADES WITHOUT AS9100 (2002–2025)

During this 23-year period:

• Boeing had no publicly verifiable AS9100 certificate
• Boeing continued operating as if fully conforming
• Boeing required suppliers to maintain AS9100 or face removal from being a supplier
• The accreditation system did not intervene

BOEING was on ANAB Management System Accreditation Committee (MSAC) — (2014-2024) responsible for granting, suspending, and withdrawing certifications — took no visible public action, despite having full authority to:

• Grant
• Suspend
• Withdraw
• Enforce conformity

Oversight failed upward while pressure increased downward.

THE BOEING INTERNAL AUDIT ILLUSION

In a June 27, 2024 Reuters interview, Boeing VP of Quality Elizabeth Lund admitted that while Boeing had been "willing and prepared to obtain AS9100 certification," the company had conducted internal audits "as if" it were certified for more than 23years — without ever holding valid AS9100. 12,000 commercial and 400+ military aircraft were built in an uncertified, unverified system.

This created the appearance of compliance where none officially existed.

Compounding the risk, ANSI–ANAB also serves major U.S. federal agencies:

• DHS
• DOJ
• DOC / NIST
• FDA

These agencies relied on the same flawed accreditation network, magnifying exposure for investors, suppliers, regulators, and the flying public. They were not just members of ANSI-ANAB board but they are customers.

HOW SUPPLIERS WERE "SCREWED"
In October 2024, I, Daryl Guberman, visited Boeing facilities in Everett, Renton, Auburn, and Northfield. I spoke with 300–600 IAM 751 workers.

Their responses:

• "What is AS9100?"
• "What audit?"
• "I've never been part of any AS9100 audit."

Meanwhile:

• Suppliers paid for audits, certifications, surveillance fees
• Suppliers maintained strict compliance
• Suppliers were threatened with removal if they lacked AS9100

Yet Boeing operated outside the very system it forced on them —for 23 years. And the accreditor (ANSI-ANAB) defined validity only as "probably accredited."

Suppliers were held to a higher standard than the corporations controlling them.

THE INVESTMENT COMMUNITY: MISLED BY SYSTEMIC AMBIGUITY

Major institutions such as:

• BlackRock
• State Street
• Fidelity
• Vanguard

built financial and operational risk models assuming:

• Stable compliance
• Valid accreditation
• Effective oversight
• Supply-chain integrity

But if Boeing lacked AS9100 for a 23 years —and the accreditation ecosystem relied on probability —then every risk model was built on fiction. This represents a massive fiduciary blind spot.

GLOBAL LOGISTICS: DHL, FEDEX, UPS, AMAZON

These companies depend on:

• Safe Boeing aircraft
• Reliable manufacturing control
• Documented certification integrity
• Transparent risk management

If Boeing's quality system was effectively uncertified, and accreditor-(ANSI-ANAB American National Standards Institute which  took over complete control over the American National Accreditation Board 2018) approved certificates were only "probably accredited," then logistics operators inherited the same operational risks.

THE FLYING PUBLIC — THE ULTIMATE VICTIM
Passengers expect:

• Aircraft built under certified, verified systems
• Oversight that is absolute — not probable
• Documentation that is real — not theatrical

A 23 year-long gap, combined with a global probably accredited disclaimer, is not a clerical error.

It is a systemic integrity failure.

BOTTOM LINE
This is not a technicality.
This is not a paperwork delay.
This is not semantics.
This is a collapse of accreditation credibility affecting aerospace, medical, automotive, defense, and industrial sectors.

• Boeing & Airbus forced an invalid certification reality onto the global AS9100 community. Effecting not just AS 9100 for aerospace but ISO & AS derivatives accredited by ANAB or its international equivalents.  
• ANAB reinforced it with "probably yes."

Suppliers paid.
Investors paid.
Shippers paid.

The flying public bore the risk.

In industries where failure means death, collapse, or catastrophe:

"Probably" is not accreditation.
"Probably" is danger.
"Probably" is liability.
"Probably" is unacceptable.
The era of ambiguity is over.
The era of accountability must begin.

WHO I AM — AND WHY I'M DOING THIS
My name is DARYL GUBERMAN, and my fight crystallized on June 18, 2024, when I was physically present at the DHS Subcommittee's public inquisition of Boeing CEO David Calhoun.

In the middle of that hearing, a woman rose, shaking, crying, screaming:

YOU KILLED MY DAUGHTER!

YOU KILLED MY FAMILY!

Her voice shattered the illusion of oversight.

Those seven words are why:

• I will not let oversight become a performance.
• I will not let accreditation become a probability.
• I will not let the truth be negotiated, diluted, or silenced.

And let me be clear:

Whether it is DHS, DOJ, DOC, FDA, the President of the United States, or any president of any country, ANSI, ANAB, IAF, or ILAC —no organization, no federal agency, and no corporation — whether for-profit or not-for-profit — that facilitated this largest industrial and fiduciary scam intimidates me.

I do not fear them.

They should fear me — because I bring the truth, and the truth does not negotiate.

As David Foster Wallace wrote:

"The truth will set you free, but not until it is finished with you."

I am here to finish the work.
I am not a paper tiger.
I am a lion.
And lions do not murmur…
lions do not tiptoe…
LIONS DO NOT ASK PERMISSION.
Lions ROAR.

And today — I ROAR.
