Defining context of the organization in IATF 16949

Answer:

The requirements for context of the organization in IATF 16949 are no different than the ones stated in ISO 9001:2015. First, you do not have to document context of the organization, you only need to determine it and this can be done on the brainstorming session with the relevant people in the company including the top management.

You need to examine all internal and external issues that can affect the QMS(Quality Management System) and its ability to achieve the objectives and customer satisfaction. The easiest way o do it is by applying the SWOT analysis which can even provide sufficient documented information to demonstrate that you've determined the context.
