Internal IATF 16949:2016 Auditor Training for the Automotive Sector

Expand All

IATF 16949:2016 along with applicable automotive customer-specific requirements, ISO 9001:2015 requirements, and ISO 9000:2015 defines the fundamental quality management system requirements for automotive production and relevant service parts organisations. As such, IATF 16949 cannot be considered a stand-alone QMS standard but has to be comprehended as a supplement to and used in conjunction with ISO 9001:2015. The goal of this standard is the development of a quality management system that provides for continual improvement, emphasising defect prevention and the reduction of variation and waste in the supply chain.

This two-day course provides delegates with the skills necessary to be effective internal auditors of IATF 16949:2016.

A variety of exercises will be carried out throughout the course using role-plays, case studies and sample documentation. Delegates are assessed throughout the course by continual assessment. Continual assessment is based upon the student’s participation and performance during the exercises, role-plays and question & answer sessions. It is essential that delegates take an active part in all course activities during the course in order that the tutor can make a full assessment of the student’s performance. A practical audit will take place on day 2 against company quality procedures and process maps. Audit findings will be generated and critiqued and an audit report will be prepared.
