This gap analysis checklist is prepared for use in evaluating a Quality Management System (QMS) against the requirements of the new Automotive standard. The IATF 16949:2016 standard includes the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 and specifies additional automotive industry requirements.

In the checklist, each requirement is expressed as a question that the user (auditor / assessor) can use to evaluate your QMS capabilities. You will need to have copies of the IATF 16949:2016 and ISO 9001:2015 standards to use along with this checklist so that, if required, you can refer to the requirements.
