New publication: Introduction and training on the new VDA 6.8

Source: VDA QMC

The VDA 6.8 red volume has been published – a new international quality standard to minimize risks along the entire supply chain. It aims to standardize, stabilize, optimize and secure logistical processes.

The VDA 6.8 closes the gap left by the removal of the service questions (chapter 8) in the VDA 6.3 and integrates current requirements such as:

  • security of information,
  • ESG criteria and
  • the contents of Global MMOG/LE, making both standards comparable in terms of content.

VDA 6.8 is a further milestone in the VDA 6.x family and provides you with the basis for a transparent and sustainable supply chain.

 

The most important features of VDA 6.8 at a glance:

  • Focus on supply chain processes: The entire catalog of questions is based on the proven Turtle System.
  • Structured process analysis: Clearly defined procedures for the evaluation and identification of risks.
  • Evaluation system: Critical paths and key questions for identifying particular risks.
  • Presentation of results: Clear evaluations (A, B or C) and worldwide comparability.
  • Potential analysis: Evaluation of the suitability of new suppliers and service providers before awarding contracts.
  • Self-assessment: Tool for internal evaluation and for exchanging information with customers.
