  • Identify all the organization's processes affecting product quality
  • Determine which of the ISO/TS 16949:2002 requirements are already addressed by the existing processes in the organization
  • Find the ISO/TS 16949:2002 requirements not yet addressed by the existing processes in the organization
  • Address customer specific requirements in the organization's processes
  • It aids the organization in the initial Document Review for the ISO/TS 16949:2002 registration audit
  • It increases the organization's awareness of what constitutes a major vs. a minor process, a support process and a customer oriented process. In other words, it helps Quality Managers identify the natural hierarchy of processes that already exists in the organization
  • It may reduce the organization's audit costs by fully preparing the organization for the initial document review
  • If the organization's processes have addressed all the requirements of the Technical Specification, there is no "automatic" major non-conformance during the initial registration audit for having failed to address a section of the Technical Specification
  • Ordinarily, such an initial "automatic" major non-conformance could result in a truncated registration audit and necessitate a second visit by the registrar, thereby increasing costs
  • Being fully prepared avoids this potential increased cost
