Linkage of ISO 9001:2000, ISO/TS16949 and Lean Manufacturing

It is my opinion from observations that there is a close relationship between ISO 9001:2000, ISO/TS16949 and Lean Manufacturing. Was I only dreaming it? I'd like someone elses take on it?

Please share with me the similarities between ISO and Lean?

I don't see it.

ISO and TS.....yes of course. ISO is the baseline and TS is just adding the specifcs to the automotive industry. (great system)

There is a note to clause 6.3.1 (Plant, facility, and equipment planning) that states, "These requirements SHOULD focus on lean manufacturing principles..." I think we all know, if the standard says something "SHOULD" be done then auditors will look for it. Good pick up AMR1234, the TS Standard does indeed incorporate Lean principles.

Perhaps the use of word linkage is incorrectly applied. Perhaps, tools and building blocks would be more appropriate. To me, ISO/TS16949 is complimented by Lean Manufacturing, or visa versa. :bonk:

6.3.1 in the 9001:2000 standard ?

lean vs ISO

9001:2000 = conformity to requirements
Lean = deliver value at the least cost

ISO procedures, audits, and all the other documentation = NON VALUE

TS and ISO are going in the right directions. The supplier 8D is a great system used in lean and TS. The focus on processes in the 9001:2000 is part process mapping.

No...6.3.1 in TS 16949. It is a supplement to ISO 9k2k.

yes I know. I passed a registartion audit last month.

But I thought the question was also about ISO 9001:2000, maybe I was wrong. ,
 

The Taz!

I think there is a more subtle reference also. . . process efficiency. ISO and TS both are looking at process efficiency, and you can use an extention of that to look at all processes not just manufacturing. The ultimate goal is customer satisfaction. . . leaning out a manufacturing process creating a larger margin will allow for cost cutting in the supply chain. THAT is really the stealth goal there.

The techniques can be applied in a variety of ways.

I certainly didn't mean to talk down to you. If you took it that way, I apologize.

The title of the thread was for all three: "Linkage of ISO 9001:2000, ISO/TS 16949 and Lean Manufacturing"
