Do we have to have a written request from our customer(s) to be TS or is a verbal request acceptable?

Thanks!

James, almost anyone in the the automotive industry is eligible for certification to 16949 with or without a request from their customer. If you supply one of the Big Three direct, you MUST be certified. If there is any doubt, contact your registrar for clarification.

What about us 2nd and 3rd tier suppliers (Heat Treating)?

Thanks!

2nd and 3rd tier are not "REQUIRED" to be certified, however they certainly are allowed to become certified so long as they meet the requirements. IMHO you should have no problem finding a registrar who can then answer any specific questions regarding certification of your company. I believe I am right in stating heat treating for the automotive industry is specifically covered as an eligible supplier.
