Wading my way through 16949 and trying to work out what we should do with it when I read 8.2.3.1.1 - Review of the requirements for products and services - supplemental
If I read this correctly what it says is that to apply IATF 16949 scope to a Customer they will have to formally waive the requirements of ISO9001 8.2.3.1 for a "contract review" and that we have to document this waiver.
i.e. All automotive customers are required to waive the requirements for a contract review or I guess they could waive the requirements of IATF 16949 and work to ISO 9001 instead.
Although it would be fun to send all our Automotive Customers the option to either waive contract review or IATF 16949 (and this could save us quite a bit of work......) I believe the risk assessment requirements elsewhere may be in conflict.
Pretty sure it is meant to mean a formal waiver is required to apply the note allowing review of catalogs, etc but this is not what it seems to actually say having read it several times. If I am right I guess there may be an "official interpretation" coming???
Would welcome others points of view.
