TS 16949 Internal Auditor Training
Auditing is critical to ensure compliance and find out the gaps. It maximizes the benefits of implementing TS 16949. Effective auditing is a highly specialized skill and IQMS trains key personnel from your organization to be successful internal auditors.
High quality auditing will ensure that your organization is always compliant with the necessary requirements of TS 16949.
Each participant will receive a seminar manual and a team breakout workbook that includes case studies.
A guide on "how to" audit TS 16949 elements and the objective evidence required will be taught and provided for participants.
TS 16949 Pre- Assessments / Gap Analysis
We will conduct a third party assessment/audit (gap analysis) of your existing Quality Assurance (Control) Systems which will determine the level of compliance of your facility to quality standards such as TS 16949, ISO 9000 and HAACCP.
We will conduct an assessment on the current quality system and general condition of the company. This will include interviewing key personnel in each department or area. For example, this may include the management team, team leaders, supervisors, office staff, operators, etc…
The assessment will entail the investigation and assessment of existing quality system elements as they apply to the applicable standard.
It is a comprehensive review of a company's quality systems and procedures. Non-compliance's to the standard are noted, and a report issued.
It will also include some general questions to determine the overall condition of the company. For example, questions to determine some of the strengths and weaknesses (opportunities for improvement) of the organization. This will help us identify any barriers that may prevent you from obtaining your goal of Registration.
The responses will be summarized and reports will be issued (including recommendations) and reviewed with the management team.
