TISAX assessment in Nuremberg at a glance

A truck maker expanding battery and engine production in Nuremberg shares drawings, software and test data with a long supplier list, and each supplier may be asked for a TISAX label. The ENX Association runs the scheme, which assesses information security against the VDA catalogue and shares results with partners through the ENX platform. It is an assessment, not a certificate, and an ISO 27001 system is a useful base. Suppliers in the city's vehicle-parts branch, along with engineering and tooling firms, are the likeliest to be asked, each by a customer that sets the assessment objectives and level. Served from Sterling's Frankfurt office, Sterling prepares scope, gap closure and evidence, and an audit provider listed by ENX assesses independently. See the Germany page.

Prototypes are protectedWhere the assessment objectives include it, prototype parts and vehicles are physically and organisationally protected.
Customer information is handled at the agreed levelConfidential information from vehicle makers is classified, access-restricted and handled to the protection level required.
Third parties meet the same barSuppliers and service providers handling customer information are held to the same protection requirements.
Personal data is protected where in scopeData protection requirements apply when you process personal data on behalf of customers and that objective is in scope.
Results are shared through ENXAn approved audit provider assesses you, and results are shared with customers through the ENX exchange.

TISAX in Nuremberg: questions clients ask

Which Nuremberg suppliers need TISAX?

Those that receive confidential drawings, prototypes, software or test data from automotive customers such as vehicle makers and tier-one firms. Each customer sets assessment objectives and levels. Ask for them in writing, since scope and level drive effort and cost.

Who performs a TISAX assessment?

An audit provider listed by ENX performs it, not Sterling and not your customer. Sterling prepares your organisation, scope and evidence. The result is a label shared with business partners through the ENX platform, and it states exactly which scope and level were assessed.
