Certification according to IATF 16949

For quality, customer satisfaction, and the sustainable improvement of processes in your company.

Customers in the automotive industry require reliable partners at every stage of the supply chain—regardless of company size or structure—and demand proof of how their suppliers ensure this reliability.
In the automotive sector, the requirements of IATF 16949 are established as an international standard. This standard supplements and specifies the fundamental ISO 9001 requirements for quality management systems with industry-specific requirements.
By certifying your quality management system according to IATF 16949 through an independent certification body, you demonstrate compliance with the requirements of this important and internationally recognized standard for the automotive industry, which is often a basic prerequisite for cooperation within this sector.
