CQI-14 Consumer-Centric Warranty Management

Significance and Application of the CQI-14 Guideline

The North American automotive association AIAG (Automotive Industry Action Group) is publisher of the CQI-14 guideline. The CQI-14 provides a guideline for warranty management from the perspective of the end user to ensure a smooth winding up of warranties. As a long standing member of the AIAG, TopQM-Systems already specialized early on in the introduction, development and qualification of employees according to the content of CQI-14 and its transfer of knowledge, including methods of „best practice“.

The CQI-14 guideline „Automotive Warranty Management: A Guideline for Industry Best Practices“ was developed by the AIAG (Automotive Industry Action Group) to increase customer satisfaction of the end user while at the same time continuously improving the „warranty management programme“ throughout the manufacturer and supplier chain.
The focus of this warranty programme is positioned from the point of view of the end user and describes „best practice“, „process considerations“, „risk minimization“ and „case studies“, thus ensuring an improved warranty management programme in mutual agreement.

The guideline is structured in individual process steps so that the risks are presented transparently to all process participants, from T2 sub-suppliers of individual components and T1 suppliers of vehicle components, through to OEM vehicle manufacturers, to the end users, promoting proactive action by all process participants by means of process examples.

 

 

The new CQI-14 4th Edition Automotive Warranty Management was released in April 2022.

The new CQI-14 standard can be purchased directly from AIAG.
