Introduction of IATF Common Audit Report and Remote Audits
In response to the Coronavirus pandemic the IATF has recently released its updated Global Waivers and Measures which states that in certain circumstances, Certification Bodies may be able to conduct audits remotely using technology.
In addition, a new Common Audit Report “CARA” will be mandatory for automotive OEMs from January 2021 for all Certification Bodies and clients with the objective of driving improvements and enabling better comparisons of audit reports from different Certification Bodies.
Hear from BSI’s Global Head of Automotive, Rob Brown, for this on-demand webinar as he provides background to the “CARA” initiative, everything IATF certified clients need to know to prepare for its introduction, scenarios under which an IATF remote audit may be permitted, and how they work.
Rob covered the following:
- Background to the new common audit report
- Structure and content of the new common audit report
- New reporting requirements and internal business KPIs for IATF certified organizations
- Circumstances under which IATF remote audits may be permitted
- Benefits of remote audits and the technology used
This webinar will be of interest to IATF 16949-certified organizations, specifically Quality Managers, as well as their teams involved in preparing for IATF 16949 audits and reporting on corrective action responses.
