ISO9001 vs. TS16949

Hello!
Greetings from Finland! Could someone be nice and shortly discripe the differences between the ISO9001:2000 and valid TS16949? Do we still need to use PPAP, APQP and so on as QS9000 reiquired? I'm just starting a TS16949-project and feel a little bit lost. Thank you in advance!

PPAP and all that will be required by your customers so essentially there will be no change in the requirements when considered as a whole.

I hope this makes sense, but QS-9000 and TS-16949 are interchangeable in that you can decide which one you want to use. I am talking automotive.

The new TS will be based on the ISO-900/2000 version while automotive will accept QS-9000 based on the 1994 version of ISO 9000.

I know you didn't ask for technical advice, but as a personal opinion I would go for TS-16949-2002.

Just my opinion!
