Quality Management System (QMS) and Certification Scope

Bohai Automotive Technology Co., Ltd. operates under a Quality Management System that is certified to ISO 9001:2015 standards. This certification encompasses the entire scope of our operations: from the Design and Development of electric running board solutions to the Manufacturing, Assembly, and After-Sales Service. The ISO 9001 framework mandates a formalized, documented, and continually audited process for quality control, risk management, and customer satisfaction.

Key aspects of our QMS include supplier qualification (ensuring all raw materials meet stringent quality specifications), in-process inspection (using check sheets and calibrated gauges at every assembly station), and a formal Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) system to systematically address non-conformities and improve processes, guaranteeing consistent quality across our annual production capacity of 80,000 sets.

The Foundation of Trust: Certified Quality

In the automotive supply chain, ISO 9001 certification is not merely a formality; it is an assurance of a structured, reliable, and risk-managed manufacturing partner. It signifies that our entire organization is oriented toward meeting customer requirements and driving continuous improvement.

Since our certification, our operations have been strictly guided by the principles of process excellence. This commitment is particularly vital for international trade, providing our partners in North America, Europe, and Asia with confidence in product uniformity, documentation quality, and ethical business practices. Our management system is continually audited by independent, accredited third-party bodies to ensure ongoing compliance with the latest ISO 9001 standard.

Key Application Areas

Tier 2/3 Automotive Supply Chain: Required for supplying components to larger Tier 1 manufacturers or distributors who mandate certified suppliers for their own quality programs.
Regulated Markets: Essential for accessing markets with strict import regulations, where quality certification simplifies customs clearance and product acceptance.
Long-Term Partnership: Appealing to large international distributors seeking a stable, predictable manufacturing partner for long-term contract fulfillment.
Risk Management Focus: Ideal for procurement managers focused on supply chain risk mitigation, as ISO 9001 ensures a robust, audited system is in place.

FAQ: ISO 9001 QMS and Manufacturing

Q: How does the ISO 9001 certification specifically benefit me as a distributor?
A: It guarantees consistent quality between shipments, reduces your need for extensive incoming quality inspection, and provides certified documentation, simplifying your regulatory compliance and reducing warranty claims.

Q: Are the materials sourced from ISO-certified suppliers?
A: We prioritize sourcing key structural and electrical components from suppliers that are either ISO 9001 or IATF 16949 certified, and all major suppliers undergo our rigorous internal qualification and audit process.

Q: Do you hold any other automotive-specific certifications (e.g., IATF 16949)?
A: While we currently operate under ISO 9001, our internal processes and controls are structured to align with the higher requirements of IATF 16949 (Automotive QMS), which we can certify to based on specific OEM partner requirements.

Q: How do you handle customer complaints under the QMS?
A: All customer complaints are logged into the CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Action) system. They are formally investigated for root cause, a permanent solution is implemented across all relevant processes, and the customer is provided with detailed feedback on the resolution.

Systematic Quality Assurance Advantages

Traceability Protocol: Every step component, down to the motor batch and wire harness source, is tagged in the ERP system, providing end-to-end traceability required by high-stakes automotive applications.
Controlled Documentation: All production specifications, drawings, and work instructions are version-controlled and centrally managed, ensuring only the current, approved documents are used on the factory floor.
Internal Audit System: Our QMS includes regular internal audits performed by trained personnel to proactively identify and correct potential weaknesses before external audits or customer issues arise.
Training and Competency: All personnel involved in manufacturing and QA receive structured training documented under the QMS, ensuring high-skill operations and consistent adherence to standards.
Preventive Action Focus: The ISO system shifts the focus from fixing errors to preventing them through root cause analysis and implementing robust corrective actions across all related processes.

The Continuous Improvement Process (CIP)

Our commitment to ISO 9001 is validated through continuous process improvement.

Management Review:

Lean Manufacturing Integration: We integrate lean principles (e.g., 5S methodology) into our production system to eliminate waste and optimize process efficiency, which contributes to consistent quality.
Dedicated QA Team: A specialized Quality Assurance team is independent of the production department, ensuring objectivity in all inspection and audit activities.
Process Validation: Critical manufacturing processes (e.g., welding, coating cure temperature) undergo formal validation to ensure they consistently produce the intended results.

QMS Integration and Compliance Materials

Documentation and system standards that support certified quality.

Process Flow Mapping: Detailed flow charts for every production stage, from raw material receipt to final packaging, minimizing variation and non-conformity.
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs): Comprehensive, visual SOPs are mandatory for all key assembly, welding, and quality check stations on the floor, ensuring repeatability.
Gauges and Instrumentation: All measuring tools (micrometers, calipers, CMM) are subject to a strict, documented calibration schedule traceable to national or international standards.
Statistical Data Analysis: We employ statistical tools to analyze process capability (Cpk) for critical tolerances, ensuring processes are stable and centered within specification limits.
