The IATF 16949 process audit checklist template provides a structured framework for conducting comprehensive audits of your automotive manufacturing processes. It covers all critical areas required by the standard, from context and leadership to support and operation. When your automotive supplier faced recurring quality issues that threatened customer relationships, this template helped identify process weaknesses in manufacturing controls that standard quality checks missed.
We created this template to help you maintain consistent quality across your automotive supply chain while meeting the rigorous requirements of IATF 16949. Nearly three-quarters (72%) see an opportunity to improve processes and operations through audits, while over half (51%) find comparing their performance against competitors to be highly valuable
