Transfer your IATF 16949 certificate to BSI

If you’re already certified to IATF 16949 with another certification body, it may be possible to transfer your IATF 16949 certificate to BSI. You may also consider adopting a corporate approach by centralizing all your IATF 16949 certificates with BSI, helping to increase the effectiveness of your management system, reduce audit duration and cost, while maximizing consistencies.

What is IATF 16949: 2016?

IATF 16949:2016, developed and operated by the International Automotive Task Force (IATF), 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. IATF 16949:2016 outlines everything you need to know about achieving best practice when designing, developing, manufacturing, installing or servicing automotive products and is a requirement throughout much of the global automotive supply chain.
