TS 16949 Quality Manual Templates - Lots of free examples and great discussion!

I too need a TS 16949 template manual and feel there is nothing wrong with wanting a template to get you started. That's why we get audited every 6 months, to insure that we are following our manuals. If all I wanted was a TS manual to shove under a auditor nose, then that auditor is going to know what up by the end of the audit and the company I work for would have wasted alot of money trying to move ahead.

QM Template: (ref 4.2.2)

the quality manual shall include;
- the scope of the quality management system, including details of and justification for any exclusions(1.2).
* the scope as it will appear on your certificate.
- the documented procedures established for the quality management system, or reference to them,
* there are only seven documented procedures required. list these by number. you may add additional procedures if necessary.
- a description of the interaction between the processes of the quality management system.
* process mapping; depending on the type of process, will include a process flow chart/control plan describing the inputs and outputs.
This information makes up the requirement for a quality manual.

Suggestion:
1- read notes 1,2 & 3 at the end of 4.2.1.
2- in the spec highlight the term "documented procedure(s). should be 7. if you are QS you should already have these procedures.
3- highlight the term "process/processes" and the "shall" that goes with it. Do you have a document that fully describes the process? if so, use it. If not prepare a process map.
4- Highlight the remaining "shalls". Yuo should have existing document that satisfies these requirements. If not, consider using a process map.

TS16949 also mandates procedures for the identification of training needs and achieving competence.

Why ?

Because trainign is probably the single most important thing in the QMS ? Maybe ??

[M Greenaway]

Training is part of the system is it not ?

Why does it appear in the QMS standards if it is not part of the system ??

A system failure could well be lack of training, or poor training.

So you can knock your bleeding laughing faces on the head wise guy

Actually I found that Even the Zip files are 4 MB sizes and I can't send it thro this route since max limit is 80000. Hence I am sending one part of my quality manual wishing it reaches to you. Can you suggest me how can I send it the complete manual.
