Withdrawal of IATF16949 Certifications

for Mitsubishi Electric's Himeji and Sanda Works

 

TOKYO, December 1, 2022 - Mitsubishi Electric Corporation
(http://www.mitsubishielectric.com/) (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that the
IATF16949 certifications for the company's Himeji Works (Himeji-City, Hyogo
Prefecture) and Sanda Works (Sanda-City, Hyogo Prefecture) have been withdrawn
by Bureau Veritas Japan Co., Ltd., effective November 30. This follows a
special assessment conducted in the wake of the temporary suspension of the
said certifications effective July 29, in connection with the certain
quality-related conduct at both of the works, as announced on May 25.

 

Mitsubishi Electric will make every effort to promptly reacquire
certifications. The IATF16949 certification (IATF16949:2016; registration
number IATF16949 - 405336 and 404739 (Himeji Works) / IATF16949 - 427618
(Sanda Works)) is an international standard for automotive quality management
systems.
