AUTOMOTIVE CORE TOOLS TRAINING
The Automotive Core Tools are the building blocks of an effective quality management system. They are standardized methodologies developed by the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG) and Verband der Automobilindustrie (VDA), in collaboration with several automotive and manufacturing industries, that serve the purpose of ensuring maintenance and delivery of high-quality products, and preventing errors rather than only detecting them. The core tools are often customer specific requirements, are used throughout the product lifecycle, and are key audit criterion.
Successful project work requires knowledge about planning processes and methods, and an understanding of the connection between these methods throughout the manufacturing lifecycle of a product. ENCONA’s core tools training programs show how the individual phases of manufacturing projects are designed, how specific method deployment supports the achievement of planned results, and how these methods are correctly and efficiently deployed.
ENCONA HAS YOU COVERED.
We are a leading provider of powerful professional training and development courses in the automotive industry.
