ISO/TS
16949 used the ISO 9001 Standard as
the basis for their development and
included the requirements from these
Standards with specific 'adders' for
the automotive supply chain. The
2002 revision of TS builds off the
ISO9001:2000 document. The
basis for the certification audits
for ISO/TS 16949 include the
standard itself, customer specific
requirements and the organization's
quality system.
Where
did ISO/TS 16949 come from?
Beginning in 1994 with the
successful launch of QS 9000 by
DaimlerChrysler, Ford and GM, the
Automotive OEM's recognized the
increased value that could be
derived from an independent quality
system registration scheme and the
efficiencies that could be realized
in the supply chain by commonizing
system requirements. |
 |
In 1996, the
success of these efforts led to a move
towards the development of a globally
accepted and harmonized quality management
system requirements document. From this, the
International Automotive Task Force (IATF)
was formed to lead the development effort.
What is
ISO/TS 16949?
The result of the IATF's effort is the
ISO/TS 16949 specification. ISO/TS 16949
forms the requirements or the application of
ISO 9001 for automotive production and
relevant service part organizations.
As an ISO/TS
16949 certified company, Georgia Plating is
committed to meeting and maintaining the
rigorous standards that are necessary to do
business today and in the future.
