Sorry to ask this question again, but I seems not to be able to find the answer anywhere. (Probably I'm too new to learn how to explore the forum)
Anyway, could someone give me a hint as in when exactly QS9000 going to be officially obsolete and to be replaced by TS ? I need to know the dateline, as in to prepare for the conversion of Qs9000 to Ts in the future.
Thanks

Okay, I found it. In a letter dated July 2002, DaimlerChrysler announced:
"Effective July 1, 2004 , DaimlerChrysler will require registration to ISO/TS 16949. VDA 6.1 and QS-9000 will be accepted until this final deadline."
This was from Gary C. Valade, Executive Vice President, Global Procurement & Supply.
