Read the scope literally

Tooling and casting services fall inside the certified scope. Product design does not: IATF 16949 is held with clause 8.3 excluded, so design inputs and drawing approval remain with the customer.

No certificate scope names squeeze casting. The scopes are worded as die-cast parts, pressure castings and die-casting services; whether squeeze-cast parts fall under that wording is for the certification body to confirm, and we do not claim it.

A certificate applies to the named legal entity and to the locations listed on it or its appendix, not to a brand name alone. Check that the company on your purchase order is the company on the certificate.

How to verify an IATF 16949 casting supplier

  1. Ask for the current certificate for the specific standard, with number and validity date.
  2. Check the number with the issuing body.
  3. Read the scope and the site against your project.
  4. Confirm validity at the time of order; certificates renew on a cycle.

Overseas customers can also audit the certified site on site or by live video. What an audit covers

Documents provided with a quotation or sample

  • Certificate copies with numbers, scope and validity
  • Material certificates for the alloy used
  • First-article and dimensional reports for sample approval
  • X-ray images or leak-test records where the part requires them
  • The inspection plan agreed for the part

If your supplier approval needs squeeze casting named in the scope, raise it before the order; we do not claim that coverage. Capabilities · Inspection and leak testing · Casting inspection plan
