In preparation for the upcoming IATF 16949 quality management system annual audit on March 20, 2025, the purchasing and quality departments of Dalian Bohai Rubber and Plastics Co., Ltd. are working closely together to fully prepare for the audit, ensuring that the company's quality management system continues to meet international automotive industry standards and further enhancing product quality and customer satisfaction.

 

High Importance, Full Participation:

IATF 16949 is an internationally recognized quality management system standard for the automotive industry. Its audit is not only a test of the company's quality management capabilities, but also a test of the company's continuous improvement capabilities. Therefore, the company's senior management attaches great importance to this, requiring the purchasing and quality departments to cooperate fully, strictly following the standards item by item to ensure the smooth passage of the audit.

 

Purchasing Department Strictly Controls Supply Chain Quality:

As a key link in supply chain management, the purchasing department played an important role in this preparation. All department members systematically reviewed the supplier quality management process, including:

1. Supplier Qualification Re-examination: Re-evaluation of key suppliers' quality system documents, production qualifications, and historical performance to ensure their continued compliance with IATF 16949 requirements.

2. Strengthened Incoming Inspection: Collaborate with the quality department to improve incoming inspection standards and strengthen quality control of raw materials and components to prevent substandard products from entering the production process.

3. Contingency Plan Development: Develop contingency plans for potential supply chain risks to ensure the stability and reliability of material supply.

 

Quality Department Promotes Full Process Optimization:

As the core responsible department for the audit, the quality department led the company's self-inspection and improvement of the quality management system:

Document System Improvement: Update the quality manual, procedural documents, and work instructions to ensure consistency with the latest standard requirements.

Strengthened Process Audits: Organize internal simulation audits covering the entire process from order receipt to product delivery, identifying problems and rectifying them within a specified time limit.

Employee Training Enhancement: Conduct specialized training to strengthen the understanding and implementation of IATF 16949 clauses by all employees, particularly the implementation of core requirements such as "continuous improvement" and "defect prevention".

 

Unity and Cooperation to Meet Challenges:

The purchasing and quality departments have formed a highly efficient linkage mechanism through regular joint meetings, data sharing, and collaborative rectification. The general manager of the company stated: "The preparation work for this audit fully reflects the cohesion and execution ability of various departments. We not only need to pass the audit, but also take this opportunity to further improve the level of quality management and provide customers with better products and services."
