For organisations working within the automotive sector, certification to ISO/TS 16949 represents a significant opportunity for standardisation and improvement. As one of the leading certification bodies in the world, LRQA is one of a select few recognised by the scheme’s owners, the International Automotive Task Force (IATF) to provide this certification.

How can ISO/TS 16949 benefit my organisation?

Certification to ISO/TS 16949 offers benefits to suppliers that currently need to comply with more than one set of supplier requirements. This has significant benefits in helping reduce or eliminate multiple assessments with the additional benefits of reduction in disruption to the business, associated paperwork and costs.
