When it matters

Relevant when an automotive customer requires an audited quality management system or flows requirements through its supply chain. Eligibility depends on the supplier role, site, product responsibility, and current IATF rules.

Key considerations

  • Automotive controls build on the ISO 9001 framework.
  • Defect prevention, capability, traceability, and improvement are central.
  • Customer-specific and product-safety requirements need systematic control.

Project preparation

  • Map processes, risks, controls, responsibilities, and records.
  • Establish audits, management reviews, corrective action, and monitoring.
  • Confirm eligibility and scope with an IATF-recognized certification body.
