IASG Advises Registrars on Subcontractor Development

December 31, 2002, was the deadline for all critical-to-quality suppliers to QS-9000-registered organizations to be registered to ISO 9001/2 or in conformity by customer-approved second-party audits. In advance of the deadline, the IASG issued an Advisory to registrars detailing how QS-9000-registered suppliers that have failed to get their subcontractors registered to ISO 9001/2 are to be treated, with a supplier to be given 4-6 months to correct the problem before its QS-9000 certificate is revoked. A copy of the Advisory, registrar comments and additional information are provided.
