TÜV Saarland Certification also in the Far East
In 2018, we established our branch in Shanghai, China. TÜV Saarland Certification (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. serves companies in the People’s Republic of China and other Asian countries from there. The scope of services includes the common system standards and IATF 16949.
Advantages of IATF 16949 certification
Establish an internationally recognised set of rules with IATF 16949 certification and avoid costly multiple certifications. By consistently tracking errors, you increase the trust and security of your customers and partners. You optimise your product and process quality, credibly document your performance worldwide and thereby increase your international market opportunities.
Certification lays the foundation for meaningful combined certification, for example with ISO 9001 and/or ISO 14001.
Furthermore, you reduce your costs by focussing the standard on prevention and planning and can use the resources freed up for other quality tasks.

The VDA 6.1 standard – a possible alternative to IATF 16949 certification under certain conditions – is aimed at suppliers of vehicle parts. For service companies in the automotive industry, certification in accordance with VDA 6.2 is recommended. This is an important building block for holistic, modern service management and can be used by all organisations that are active in the automotive service environment. Suppliers of production equipment can be certified according to VDA 6.4. This volume serves to evaluate quality management systems in the area of production equipment for the automotive industry. It describes the QM system requirements for the manufacture of machines (series and individual/special machines), systems, devices, tools and test equipment.
