IATF16949:2016 is the most stringent QMS standard presently available.
IATF16949:2016 recommends the usage of 5 core tools, these core tools have separate manuals as below,

1) APQP – Advanced Product Quality Planning – 107 page manual

2) PPAP – Production Part Approval Process – 68 page manual

3) FMEA – Failure Mode & Effect Analysis – 141 page manual

4) MSA – Measurement System Analysis – 232 page manual

5) SPC – Statistical Process Control – 221 page manual

Reading all these stuff, then trying to understand the concept, logic & maths behind these are quite difficult & it takes a longer time. Again the time taken varies person to person considering their age, qualification, experience & passion. After understanding, implementing these is again a challenging task.
To support everyone who is interested in these subjects, i have developed “Nutshells” that will give a bigger picture. You can find the nutshells on the above 5 core tools below, apart from this separate article were also published on each & every nutshells separately with a write-up, which can also be referred for improving upon your knowledge on technical subjects.

Beginners can use this to have an overall idea prior to drill deep. Experts can use this as a ready reckoner.

Keep in touch & keep following.
