According to clause number of 7.5.1 of the IATF 16949:2016 standard; the quality manual shall be documented. Although it is not a requirement, the quality policy generally continues to be documented in the quality manual.
With this new standard, the word ‘’procedure’’ is not used. Also, there is no definition for the Level 1 document.
