In-company training

Learn how the new IATF 16949:2016 standard differs from ISO/TS 16949:2009 and what the implications will be for 1st and 2nd party auditors.

The course will:

  • provide an understanding of the terminology and structure of IATF 16949:2016
  • identify any change in approach necessary to undertake an internal or supplier audit against IATF 16949:2016
  • provide an understanding of the alignment requirements with ISO 9001:2015
  • explore new features in IATF 16949:2016 that are not in ISO 9001:2015, such as corporate responsibilities, enhanced requirements for the control of externally provided processes, and the inclusion of controls for embedded software

Upon completion of the course, delegates will have the knowledge and skills to identify where and how change in quality management systems is needed to adapt to the new standard.
