Hi Friends,
We are a Stainless Steel (SS) manufacturing unit and manufacture SS sheets, strips and coils. We are supplying SS to a company that makes auto components of the SS supplied and in turn supplies that components to OEM.
Now my customer wants me to get certified to IATF 16949. Can anyone please guide me whether it is really mandatory for me to get certified and what clause of the standard says so, as I will in that case have to present a case study to the management.
(We do not manufature any component, just flat SS sheets and strips are made and sold).
Regards
Lakshit Seth
