23 July, 2018

Last week IATF 16949: 2016 Quality Management System audit was held at PJSC “AutoKrAZ”. This year this standard will supersede and replace ISO / TS 16949: 2009. In November of 2016  PJSC “AutoKRAZ” has achieved recognition and IATF certificate №0251318 for compliance with requirements of ISO/TS 16949: 2009 was issued.

After thorough audit of DEKRA auditors (German Certification Body) the conclusion on transition from ISO/TS 16949:2009 to IATF 16949:2016 “Quality management system requirements for automotive production and relevant service parts” was made. Significant improvement in functioning of Quality Management System has been noted by the auditors of the certification body at closing meeting. The Certificate according to  IATF 16949:2016 requirements is recommended to be issued to  PJSC “AutoKrAZ”.  

The audit has been held for all processes at most company's subdivisions. During the audit the auditors checked quality management system documents concerning requirements to the implementation of system’s  processes, documentation on processes’ functioning, performance of work at the production sites of the aggregate and assembly workshops and warehouses, effectiveness of corrective and preventive actions undertaken, improvements that took place since the last audit, etc. The purpose of the IATF 16949: 2016 standard is to prevent defects, reduce variations and costs in supply chain.

The expansion of the list of requirements to QMS in the new standard has formed a new turn in the development of the management system of PJSC "AvtoKrAZ", which positively affects the improvement of the quality of the company's products, customer satisfaction, and promotes consolidation of the positions of KrAZ among the world-class automakers.
