Re: New TS 16949 release as on 2008
Ok, I am lost in this discussion. Our company received a letter from aiag.org regarding "Important changes related to your ISO/TS 16949 recertification audits". It went on to state beginning January 2009, 3rd party auditors will be recertified with an exam that places increased emphasis on Customer Specific Requirements, Organizational Performance and the Automotive Process Approach. It also stated "the changes in ISO 9001:2008 will result in a revision to ISO/TS 16949 to incorporate the ISO 9001:2008 language." I was asked to find out how this impacts us or if we need to do anyone. Frankly, I do not know. Can someone please explain this to me, or if there are any changes that we need to take action on. Our company is ISO/TS 16949 certified. We are not ISO 9001 certified.
Thanks
