EPower Corp is IATF 16949 Certified to Further Support Our Automotive Customers

At EPower Corp, we’ve always believed that quality is a mindset that must be embedded into every stage of the production process. That belief has guided our work in all industries and now increasingly in the automotive sector. As our relationships with automotive customers have grown, so too has our commitment to meeting the demanding standards they expect.

To support this direction and position ourselves for further growth, we’re proud to announce that EPower is now IATF 16949 certified.

Why We Pursued IATF 16949 Certification

Our decision to pursue IATF 16949 certification was based on the strategy of where we plan to grow in the future. Over the past few years, we've partnered with more customers developing transportation and mobility products, including EV accessories, charging infrastructure, and automotive-grade components. These partnerships made it clear: to provide the level of traceability, documentation, and process control expected in the automotive supply chain, we needed to align with the industry's highest quality standard.

IATF 16949 helps us formalize what we’ve already been doing, tight process discipline, supplier qualification, material traceability, and preventative quality measures, into a certified system that automotive brands and Tier 1 suppliers can rely on.

This certification also allows us to deepen relationships with existing customers and pursue new automotive programs with the confidence that we meet the same global standards followed by major OEMs and leading Tier 1 suppliers.

What is IATF 16949?

IATF 16949 is the internationally recognized quality management standard designed specifically for the automotive industry. It’s based on ISO 9001, but includes additional requirements tailored to the unique needs of automotive manufacturing, such as defect prevention, advanced traceability, risk management, and continuous improvement across the entire supply chain.

Certification to this standard ensures that a manufacturer has documented, repeatable, and auditable processes in place, not just for production, but also for design control, supplier management, and customer satisfaction.

In other words, it’s not just about making quality parts; it’s about building a system that continuously improves and reduces risk throughout the entire product lifecycle.
