TS 16949: Automotive
We offer expert TS 16949 consultancy to help your business achieve certification smoothly and efficiently. Our services include step-by-step support to meet the standard’s requirements, along with clear and practical awareness training for team leaders and staff to ensure full compliance across your organisation.
What is TS 16949?
TS 16949, combined with ISO 9001, sets clear quality management standards for the design, development, production, installation, and servicing of automotive products.
TS 16949 applies to company locations where customer-specified parts are made for production or service use.
Supporting functions—whether on-site or remote, like design centres, corporate offices, or distribution hubs—are included in the site audit because they assist the main site. However, they cannot receive separate TS 16949 certification.
Who is TS 16949 for?
Businesses that are part of, or looking to join, the automotive supply chain.
