IATF 16949 and ISO 22301

I'm the QS Mgr. At the moment we are IATF 16949:2016 certified. Hence Contingency Plan per clause 6.1.2.3 is a must and is already in place per the std. Is there a need to go for the ISO 22301 ? How are they different ?

Answer:

Main reasons to adopt ISO 22301 are:
- You have a legal requirement (e.g., law, regulation or contract) that demands such standard to be implemented.
- There is a marketing or operational edge the organization can take advantage of by implementing the standard
If neither reason applies to your organization you do not need to implement ISO 22301.
Regarding differences, while IATF 16949 focus on quality for automotive industry, ISO 22301 focus on business continuity, enabling an organization to effectively handle disruptive events that can impact its processes or services.
