IATF 16949: benchmark for quality
IATF 16949, formerly ISO/TS 16949, is a standard that contains the automotive industry's general requirements for quality management systems. With IATF 16949, the largest European and North American automotive manufacturers have created a benchmark for suppliers in the automotive sector that can be applied throughout the entire supply chain in the automotive industry. In order to be able to meet their own quality standards, these manufacturers rely exclusively on suppliers who work in accordance with this standard and have this certified through regular audits.
IATF 16949 focuses on the following areas:
- Product safety
- Risk management and emergency planning
- Requirements for embedded software
- Change and warranty management
- Management of sub-tier suppliers
