Paris, September 30, 2026

IATF France, an IATF Oversight Office, and SNECI, an international specialist in consulting and services for the automotive industry, today officially announce the signing of a global strategic partnership.

As part of this agreement, IATF France and SNECI have jointly designed and developed four new IATF 16949 training programs, intended to support the entire international automotive value chain.

A driving role at the heart of the global quality strategy

In a constantly evolving automotive industry, a clear understanding and consistent application of IATF 16949 requirements are essential to support automotive manufacturers and their suppliers in the continuous improvement of quality.

Through this partnership:

– Reference training program design: IATF France and SNECI have defined four independent training programs tailored to the different populations within automotive companies. These four modules are designed to deploy IATF 16949 requirements across all functions and levels of responsibility within an organization.

-International deployment: In addition, SNECI, together with other selected partners, will support and ensure the global deployment of these advanced training programs directly to Tier 1 to Tier N suppliers, as well as to all stakeholders across the automotive industry.

Four modules tailored to different levels of responsibility

The four training modules developed as part of this partnership are:

• IATF for Shopfloor Team
• IATF Process Leadership and Performance Management
• IATF Governance and Top Management Responsibility
• IATF Internal Auditors Qualification

Independent yet complementary, these modules have been designed to address the specific needs of different functions and levels of responsibility within automotive companies.
