The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published an industry-specific quality system requirement in March 2002. Its full name is "Quality Management System—Special Requirements for the Organization and Implementation of ISO9001: 2000 for Production Parts and Related Service Parts in the Automobile Industry" , English is IATF16949:2016.

IATF16949:2016 International Automotive Industry Technical Specifications is based on ISO9001 and added to the automotive industry technical specifications. This specification is completely consistent with ISO9001:2015, but focuses more on defect prevention and reducing quality fluctuations and waste that are prone to occur in the automotive parts supply chain. The pertinence and applicability of the ISO/TS16949 standard is very clear, and it only applies to automobile manufacturers and their direct spare parts manufacturers, that is to say, these manufacturers must be directly related to the production of automobiles, can carry out processing and manufacturing activities, and Through this activity, the product can add value. At the same time, there are strict restrictions on the qualifications of the certified company manufacturers. Those who only have supporting functions, such as design centers, company headquarters and distribution centers, or those who manufacture equipment and tools for vehicle manufacturers or automobile spare parts manufacturers Manufacturers cannot be certified. The management of the IATF16949:2016 certification is completed by the five major supervisory agencies on behalf of the IATF. They use the same procedures to supervise the operation and implementation of the ISO/TS16949 specification, so as to form a completely unified system of standards and operations throughout the world.
