Powering Performance

Did you know that the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Agency (CISA) offers free resources like their Telework tips and security considerations to help you and your colleagues establish a safe work from home environment? While these tools are always valuable for organizations throughout the supply chain, they're particularly useful in our current climate of increased cyber risk as many professionals continue to work remotely.

In late spring of this year, automakers in the United States began ramping up production after a nearly two-month shutdown to contain COVID-19. By then, the virus had sickened millions and killed thousands of Americans and forced businesses across the traumatized nation to close.

Have you taken advantage of our Industry Restart Package for Quality yet? If not, now's the time! As we continue to support the global automotive industry through all phases of its recovery, our in-language Core Tools Self-Assessment, select Core Tools eLearning, and all Core Tools eDocuments remain free to the entire industry through the end of 2020. 

Have you spotted our newest Live Virtual Training options at the AIAG Store? In addition to courses focusing on everything from the Quality Core Tools and IATF 16949:2016 to IMDS and the new USMCA, we’ve now expanded our online offerings to include two additional courses:  Automotive Warranty Management – An Introduction, and Automotive Warranty Assessment Training.

Join us October 21-22 for this year's virtual Quality Summit! This two day virtual event will kick off with an industry keynote presentation followed by several OEM QMS CSR updates.

Created by a team of researchers from AIAG, QAD and Wayne State University, the multi-industry, multinational “Operational Restart and Recovery Survey Report” reflects lessons learned and best practices from recent and ongoing operational restart experiences as global supply chains work toward a full recovery.

As the only industry-endorsed training of its kind, AIAG’s new USMCA Content Reporting course was developed by a highly qualified group of volunteers from numerous OEMs, heavy truck manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers, along with guidance from trusted trade compliance experts.

As we continue to update and develop our Core Tools Support (CTS) software to improve the user experience, we’re excited to announce the addition of two new support features on our main CTS webpage, and a new task screen in the software itself!

New publication alert! Developed in collaboration with volunteers from OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, heat treat suppliers, and calibration companies that service the heat treat industry, the 4^th edition of the Special Process: Heat Treat System Assessment (CQI-9) is now available for purchase at the AIAG Store.   

Join us on July 14, 2020, for our newest virtual training, the Global MMOG/LE V5 Training- Express for MMOG/LE Version 5. This half day course – which runs from 8 a.m. - 12 p.m., EST – takes place entirely online in an interactive WebEx environment, with time built in for a Q&A session at the end.
