With the efforts of all the staff of the company, VMT officially obtained the IATF 16949: 2016 quality management system certificate.

What is IATF 16949: 2016？

IATF 16949:2016 is a technical specification that aims to develop a quality management system, provide continuous improvement, emphasize defect prevention, and reduce changes and waste in the automotive industry's supply chain and assembly process.

IATF 16949: What 2016 means for VMT

IATF certification is highly recognized in the automotive industry, and many world-renowned car companies force their suppliers to pass IATF 16949 certification. This means that VMT has fully met the high-level quality management standards required by the automotive industry at both ends of the production and service system, and has officially obtained the "passport" to enter the global automotive industry.

The benefits of IATF16949:2016 certification

(1) Improve management and ensure quality

IATF16949 is an international technical specification for the automotive industry. It is based on ISO9001 and adds technical specifications for the automotive industry. Compared with the standard requirements of ISO9001, IATF16949 pays more attention to the prevention of defects and reduces quality fluctuations and waste that are prone to occur in the auto parts supply chain. This will help the organization improve its own quality level and competitiveness.

(2) Qualification certificate and status guarantee

IATF16949 is an international passport for auto companies to go to overseas markets. The nine major automobile companies all regard IATF16949 certification as one of their supplier selection criteria.

(3) Single standard, global mutual recognition

Another main feature of IATF16949:2016: It is a single global quality system standard and registration procedure recognized by IATF. This single standard provides a common basis for mutual recognition. Therefore, the burden of multiple certifications for auto parts and material suppliers to meet different quality system requirements is reduced, thereby saving costs for the organization. In addition, IATF16949 pays more attention to process review than document review.

The certification of IATF16949 automobile quality management system fully proves the company's quality control ability and level, and also puts forward higher requirements for the company's quality management work. VMT will take this as an opportunity to continue to provide services that exceed customer expectations and make customers more satisfied.
