Powering Performance

Created by the International Automotive Task Force (IATF), the new Rules 6th Edition details the requirements for IATF-recognized
certification bodies when conducting IATF 16949:2016 audits and issuing IATF 16949 certificates.

Sens. Ted Budd, R-N.C., and Thom Tillis, R-N.C., have sent a letter to Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo and U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai urging them to take action to “immediately and meaningfully limit the volume of Mexican steel concrete reinforcing bar (rebar) being imported into the United States.”

This is part of a series in which we recap sessions from the 2023 IMDS & Product Chemical Compliance Conference held on October 17-18, 2023, at Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi, Michigan.

What should you know about product carbon footprint (PCF) and how it’s coming to IMDS? These important questions were addressed in a session at the 2023 IMDS & Product Chemical Compliance Conference titled “Product Carbon Footprint in IMDS — Introduction and Status.”

Planning has begun for the 2024 IMDS & Product Chemical Compliance Conference scheduled for October 15–16, 2024, at Laurel Manor Banquet & Conference Center in Livonia, Michigan.

At 11:30 a.m. on April 4, 2024, Evandro Francischetti, IMDS Mexico trainer from RSJ Technical Consulting, is partnering with AIAG to discuss how IMDS, the current automotive tool, is used to track materials contained in our products. As a requirement through PPAP, having a proper understanding and training of IMDS leads to good quality data submissions.
