Management the automotive systems in sector 'ISOmobile!' Eight of every 10 cars to run on ISO 9001:2000 by 2006

摘要

By the end of 2006, as many as eight out of every 10 cars and trucks produced around the world will contain parts or components that have been designed, manufactured and sold under an ISO 9001:2000-based quality management system. For the first time in history, the highly competitive automotive industry has reached consensus through the International Automotive Task Force (IATF) on a common set of supplier quality requirements that were developed and published in March 2002 by ISO (International Organization for Standardization - www.iso.org) as ISO/TS 16949:2002, Quality management systems - Particular requirements for the application of ISO 9001:2000 for automotive production and relevant service part organizations~(1)). A technical specification, ISO/TS 16949:2002 incorporates the verbatim text of ISO 9001:2000 plus automotive-specific requirements in areas such as employee competence, awareness and training, design and development, production and service provision, control of monitoring and measuring devices and measurement, analysis and improvement.
