IATF 16949:2016 Automotive Quality Management

Demonstrate your commitment to quality products and services throughout the supply chain with the internationally recognized Automotive Quality Management System (QMS) standard IATF 16949:2016.

With worldwide coverage and a team of dedicated experts BSI is fully recognized by the International Automotive Task Force (IATF) to issue certificates for IATF 16949:2016. 

This is the global technical specification and quality management standard for the automotive industry. Based on ISO 9001:2015, it was published in October 2016 and replaces ISO/TS 16949. It is designed to be used in conjunction with ISO 9001:2015 and contains supplemental requirements specific to the automotive industry rather than being a standalone QMS.

It brings together standards from across Europe and the US. IATF 16949:2016 outlines everything you need to know about achieving best practice when designing, developing, manufacturing, installing or servicing automotive products.

This new standard will help you to:

• Get recognized as a world-class automotive supplier
• Integrate with other management system standards
• Bring quality and continual improvement to the heart of the organization
• Increase involvement of your leadership team
• Mitigate risk and improve opportunity management with a greater application of risk-based thinking
