Here is a clarification on the topic-
from Chrysler -CSR clarification December 6, 2007
"In response to your question, Chrysler is not planning on rolling out any special form to perform the self-assessment. If desired, your clients could certainly develop their own form that captures the Objectives, Example Metrics and Support Mechanisms identified in the Powerpoint presentation.
I suggest however that they take the approach that we have suggested in our Customer Specific Requirements...and allow the flexibility for these self-assessment items to be done by them or their tiers as a part of their next internal audit.
Chrysler's intent is not to proliferate any additional audits. In the spirit of ISO/TS-16949, and the Process Approach, it is desired that they effectively combine the Manufacturing Basics elements of Objectives, Example Metrics and Support Mechanisms into their internal audits. This approach will help avoid any duplication and still meet Chrysler's requirements.
I suspect that you'll find your clients (and their tiers') existing Quality Management System already addresses the majority of these items.
Please reinforce the above Chrysler position with your clients.
Regards,"
