IATF 16949 in Mumbai: questions clients ask
Which Mumbai-region suppliers are asked for IATF 16949?
Component makers on MIDC's Mumbai-Thane-Raigad land and parts exporters shipping through Jawaharlal Nehru Port are the usual candidates, because vehicle makers set the requirement for their supply chains. Ask each customer which site and processes they want certified, and read their customer-specific requirements before scoping.
Who in the automotive chain needs IATF 16949?
Customers set the requirement, and it usually applies to sites that manufacture production parts, assemblies and some services for vehicle makers and their tier suppliers. Support functions off the production site follow the scheme's own rules. Ask each customer which site and process types they expect certified, and read the scheme rules for eligibility.
