US Prepares Auditing No Vote, Considers Yes on TS 16949:2002
With the US votes of disapproval on ISO/DIS 19011, the US
EA/QA Liaison Group plans to submit with its comments a proposed
replacement for Section 7 on auditor competency that would
improve the document and resolve US objections. At the same
time, US TG 18 is contemplating the recommendation of a vote
of approval with comments on the final draft of ISO/TS 16949,
which would align the automotive sector-specific requirements
with ISO 9001:2000. This report provides details from the
Liaison Group’s review of comments submitted on ISO/DIS
19011 and the TG 18 meeting, including discussions of and
actions on TS 16949, PSI, sector-specific standards, ISO 9001:2000
interpretations, the future of ISO 9001/4, the revision of
other standards and documents in the ISO 9000 series and concern
and confusion with BS 18000.
