Automotive
Standards for automotive manufacturing, supply chain, and quality management ensuring vehicle safety and reliability
The automotive industry relies heavily on ISO standards to ensure quality, safety, and efficiency throughout the supply chain. IATF 16949 is the cornerstone quality management standard recognized by all major automotive OEMs globally.
Organizations manufacturing for the automotive industry are typically required to be certified to IATF 16949, which builds upon ISO 9001 with additional automotive-specific requirements covering product safety, manufacturing feasibility, and customer-specific requirements.
