CQI / IRCA Certified Lead Auditor · TÜV SÜD

Your QMS. Audit-Ready. Guaranteed.

Expert in ISO 9001 & IATF 16949 consulting for manufacturers across all industries — from first certification to surveillance audits. Delivered by a certified Lead Auditor with real OEM shop-floor experience.

The Reality

Is Your QMS
Costing You
Contracts?

A failed surveillance audit, an OEM rejection, or a late PPAP submission can cost more than the certification itself. Most companies don't fail audits because they don't care — they fail because they don't have the right system in place.

That's exactly what we fix. Before your auditors arrive.

⚠️
Failed Certification Audit
Major nonconformances discovered on audit day. Certification delayed 3–6 months. OEM contracts placed on hold.
📋
Paper QMS That Doesn't Reflect Reality
Documents exist but processes don't follow them. Internal audits raise the same findings every cycle. No real improvement.
🔗
OEM Supplier Rejection
PPAP rejected. Supplier scorecard deteriorating. Risk of losing Tier 1 status due to quality system weaknesses.

The Difference is
Experience

Most consultants carry the certificate. Very few have stood on an OEM production floor, managed a GM audit, or pushed PPAP through a Toyota SQE. We have.

Real Shop Floor Background
Hands-on experience inside stamping, welding, and CNC plants. Recommendations that work on the floor, not just on paper.
OEM-Level Standards
Direct experience meeting GM and Toyota supplier quality requirements. We know exactly what OEM auditors look for — because we've been on the other side of the table.
Founder-Led, Every Time
Every project is personally led — not handed to junior staff. Senior expertise on every gap report, every procedure, every audit day.
Remote-First, Global Reach
Full QMS support delivered remotely with planned on-site visits when needed. Serving clients across India and internationally.

A Clear Path to Certification

No ambiguity. No generic templates. Every engagement follows a proven four-phase methodology — with defined deliverables at every step.

01
Phase 01
Gap Assessment
"Where are we today vs. where we need to be?"
A complete review of your QMS against the target standard. Every gap, every risk, every opportunity is mapped before your certification auditors arrive. You receive a scored readiness report with a clear action plan.
Gap ReportNC RegisterRisk MapReadiness ScoreAudit Roadmap
02
Phase 02
System Design
"What does our QMS need to look like?"
We design or rebuild your quality management system — tailored to your process, team size, and scope. No copy-paste templates. Every procedure, process map, and control document is crafted for your actual operation.

Implementation & Training
"Does the system actually work on the floor?"

What Clients
Ask First

How long does ISO 9001 certification typically take?
For a small-to-medium organisation starting from scratch, expect 3–6 months from gap assessment to certificate. The timeline depends on your current documentation state, team availability, and certification body scheduling. We build a realistic roadmap at the start of every engagement so there are no surprises.
Do I need IATF 16949 or is ISO 9001 enough for automotive suppliers?
If you supply directly to an OEM (Tier 1) or to a Tier 1 that mandates it (Tier 2), IATF 16949 is almost always required. ISO 9001 is the foundation, but IATF 16949 adds automotive-specific requirements around APQP, PPAP, process audits, and customer-specific requirements (CSRs). If you're unsure, a quick review of your customer contracts will confirm this — and we can help with that conversation.
Can you support us remotely, or do you need to be on-site?
The majority of QMS work — gap reviews, documentation, training, procedure writing — is delivered remotely via calls and shared platforms. Planned on-site visits are used for process audits, internal audit facilitation, and certification audit support. This keeps costs low while maintaining quality, and it works well for clients across India and internationally.
We already have some documentation. Do we start from scratch?
Never. The gap assessment in Phase 01 identifies what you already have that's audit-ready, what needs updating, and what's missing. We build on your existing system. Organisations with prior QMS work typically reach certification faster and at lower engagement cost.
What happens after we get certified? How do we stay compliant?
Certification is a 3-year cycle with annual surveillance audits. At the end of Phase 04 we design your surveillance audit calendar, internal audit schedule, and management review plan — so your system stays alive between external audits. We also offer ongoing retainer support for organisations that want a dedicated quality partner rather than a one-time project.
What does an engagement cost?
Every engagement is scoped individually — cost depends on your current certification status, organisation size, number of processes, and certification standard. We don't charge retainers or hidden add-ons. After a free 30-minute consultation, we provide a fixed-scope proposal with a clear price. Use the contact form below to start that conversation.
