Hey,all
Survived a TE registration audit today. Our registrar is the first to be granted accreditation for TE registration. We had a few issues, ( can count them on one hand)...was an interesting audit.
Our primary customer for this is Ford, having been involved in the Q1 process this year for TE suppliers, we decided to do third party registration...(why not shoot the moon, right?) Implementing the R&M disciplines turned out to be more of a challenge than I had thought, but we got it done. We are already QS-9000, and upgraded to the Third Edition, as evidenced by our registrar; this adds something more to our bag of tricks.
Audit went well.....some interpretation issues, which I expected, due to the "newness" of the TE supplement. Outside of that, we will shortly be TE compliant, as evidenced by third party audit, complete with certificate.
Are others attempting the registration route? If so, where are you in your journey?
