AIAG CQI-11, 12, 15 and 17 - Annual requirement?
I have a supplier that we have requested to complete CQI 9 Heat Treat assessment. This supplier has provided a copy of the assessment however the customer/spec it covers is for Ford. I require one to the GM Spec. We contacted the Supplier again and asked him to perform it to the GM Spec and the Supplier indicated that "they only do one Customer a year annually (ie Ford this year, GM next year, etc) which is all that is required to be performed."
When I review the CQI assessment I found the following:
Assessment Process
Ongoing assessments shall be conducted annually, unless otherwise specified by the customer, to reexamine
the continuing compliance with the HTSA. Each assessment shall include a review of the
organization's systems using the HTSA. Successive Job Audits (Section 4.0 of this document) shall
sample parts from different automotive component manufacturers that require compliance to the HTSA
document.
Which I believe means that our Supplier is required to perform the HSTA to the specification listed on the drawing (which in this case happens to be for GM) annually and doesn't mean an annual one done this year on Ford and next year on Chrysler.
Is our Supplier correct or am I?
