Protec Group Achieves IATF 16949:2016 Quality Certification

Celebrating a Milestone in Quality and Innovation

We at Protec Group are thrilled to share a significant milestone in our journey towards excellence and innovation in the automotive manufacturing sector. Our recent attainment of the IATF 16949:2016 quality certification marks a new era in our commitment to delivering unparalleled quality and innovative solutions.

The IATF 16949:2016 is a globally recognized quality management system, tailored specifically for the automotive industry. This prestigious accreditation supersedes the former ISO/TS 16949 standard, focusing on enhancing customer satisfaction through continuous process improvement and adherence to customer and regulatory requirements.

Our journey to align with these stringent standards was meticulous and rigorous. It began with a deep dive into the requirements of IATF 16949:2016, followed by a comprehensive gap analysis to pinpoint areas for improvement. This led to the development and refinement of critical documentation, ensuring our compliance with the standard.

A key element of this journey was the extensive training and awareness programs for all Protec Group employees. This initiative empowered our team with the necessary skills and knowledge to implement and uphold the new quality management system effectively.

The efforts culminated in a thorough audit by the accredited certification body, NQA. This audit intensely evaluated our compliance with the IATF 16949:2016 standards. Successfully passing this rigorous assessment is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our entire team.

Attaining the IATF certification is more than just an accolade; it signifies our ongoing commitment to continual improvement. We are dedicated to regularly reviewing and refining our processes to stay at the cutting edge of efficiency and effectiveness in the automotive industry.

This achievement reinforces Protec Group's position as a trusted and skilled partner for engineering teams in the automotive sector, assuring the highest quality standards in every project we undertake.

Matt Duffy, our Quality Assurance Manager, expressed his pride in this accomplishment, stating, "This certification reflects our relentless pursuit of excellence and our dedication to leading the way in automotive manufacturing innovation."

We invite our partners, clients, and the media to join us in celebrating this significant milestone. With the IATF 16949:2016 certification, we are excited to continue delivering exceptional quality and innovative solutions in the automotive manufacturing industry.
