As such, this ‘Aulomiotve QMS Standard cannot be considered a stand-alone OMS Standard but has to be comprehended as a supplement to and used in eanjuncton with ISO 9001:2015. ISO 9001-2015 is published as a separate ISO Standard LATE 16949-2016 (1st ection) represents an innovative document, given the strong orientation to the customer, with inclusion of a number of consolidated previous customer specific requirements, ‘Annex B is provided for guidance to implement the [ATF 16949 requirements unless otherwise specified by customer specific requirements. History ISO/TS 16949 (1st ection) was orignaly created in 1999 by the Intemational Automotive Task Force (ATE) withthe aim of harmonizing the diferent assessment and certfcation systems worldwide inthe supply chain forthe aulomotve sector. Other revisions were created (2nd editon n 2002, and Srd edition in 2008) as necessary for either automobve sector enhancements or SO 8001 revisions. ISO/TS 18849 {along with supporting technical publications developed by orginal equipment manufacturers (herein {eferred to as OEMs] and the natonal aulomotive trade associabons) inoduced a common set of techniques and methods for common product and process devetoprnent for automotve manufacturing worldwide In preparation for migrating from ISO/TS 169422009 (3rd edition) to this Automotive OMS Standard, ATF 16949, feedback was sobcited from certfication bodies, auditors, suppliers, and OEMs to create ATF 16949.2016 (1st eaiton), which cancels and replaces ISO/TS 16948.2008 (2rd edition). The IATF maintains strong cooperation with ISO by continuing liaison committee status ensuring continued alignment wih ISO 9001, Goal “The goal ofthis Automotve OMS standard s the development of a quality management system that ‘provides for continual improvement, emphasizing defect prevention and the reduction of variation and. waste in the supply chain, , AIAG, © ANFIA, © FEV, @ SMT, @ VDA 2018 Al nght eserves Remarks for certification Requirements for cerfication to this Automotive QMS Standard are defined in the Rules for achieving ‘and maintaining IATF recognition, Details can be obtained from the local Oversight Offces of the IATF cited below: Associazione Nazionale Fiera Industie Automobilstiche (ANFIA) Web site: wwiw.anfia i e-mail: anfia@anfia it Intemational Automotive Oversight Bureau ((AOB) Web site: www iaob og e-mail: iat 1694feedback@iaob org IATE France Web site: www iatffrance.com e-mail. ati@iatlfrance com Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders Ltd.
