    I am loving this forum - thank you to everyone for sharing your knowledge and experience! Question: is the tool "lessons learned" an actual requirement in the ISO/TS 16949:2009 specification (I don't believe it is as I've read it numerous times cover to cover) or is it merely a widely recognized tool that can be used as evidence of an organization meeting the specification's requirement of improving the QMS? Thank you.

    It's a tool, not a requirement. Good luck.

    A tool to show evidence of conformance to 8.5.3 Preventive Action.

    The Phrase "Lesson Learned" as such does not find a place in ISO/TS Standard, at least to my knowledge.
    However, something that comes closer or even equivalent is 7.3.2.1 Product Design Input ;
    use of information: the organization shall have a process to deploy information gained from previous
    design projects, ********, supplier feedback, internal input, field data, and other relevant
    sources, for current and ******* of a similar nature;


    And also 7.3.2.2 Manufacturing Process Design Input :
    - experience from previous developments.

    Thank you all. Should layered process audits, which are widely used in manufacturing in the U.S., be considered a tool as well which can serve as evidence for the organization satisfying 5.6.2a Review Inputs: Results of Audits? I would not categorize these as a requirement of the standard merely a tool but am looking for opinions on that. Thank you.

    Not specifically, however, how will you update and improve things like your FMEA and Control Plans? Also LPAs are nothing more than an audit of what's being practiced at the time. Nothing about lessons learned.
