Following the release of the AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook on June 3, 2019, AIAG and VDA created an errata sheet to identify items in the original document that needed correction or clarification. While this errata sheet does not change the methodology itself, it does clear up wording on certain concepts, and identifies typing and formatting errors.

Coming August 2020!

The new CQI-12 Special Process: Coating System Assessment was developed to help better evaluate quality systems at coating shops supplying OEM automotive coatings. Now in it’s third edition, the Coating System Assessment has been updated and revised for greater clarity, and to include the ISO 9001:2015 and IATF 16949:2016 Quality Management System concepts, “process approach” and “risk management.”

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!
