    Good day QFO team-
    I am hoping specifically to hear back from Toyota suppliers, which are IATF certified. The subject of this post remains a discussion point in Toyota- IATF circles. I am curious as to the 3rd party auditor response Toyota suppliers have been getting in regard to presenting the standard MQC as the method for meeting clause 8.5.1.1.

    Thank you in advance for any empirical observations that any may have to share.

    I saw this, from a trustworthy source:

    "Please can you give me the example of where the MQC does not comply with annex a
    From what I have seen there is no problem
    Annex A does not say it must be AIAG compliant"

    Thanks Andy. In general...'yes', it does comply. It is really ancillary requirements such as "link with PFMEA", etc...

    Great to hear from you ! (i sent you a text recently...thought you were ghosting me ;)

    I'm thinking that the answers coming from suppliers are going to be almost as varied as the auditors themselves...
