Sector

Cycle-bound, audited, evidence-driven

Automotive

Automotive suppliers work under the hardest evidence regime in industry: IATF 16949, PPAP, ongoing process capability, and a supply chain that holds up in every customer audit. We place only partners who produce that evidence — not those who assert it.

Requirement pressure

What projects founder on here

Points that regularly become a problem in Automotive — and that we settle first in a request, because they decide the evidence framework.

  1. A series launch under deadline pressure while sampling is still running
  2. Evidence obligations along the whole supply chain, down to tier two
  3. Variant proliferation with falling lot sizes per variant
  4. Switching from combustion to electric drive components
  5. Price pressure while alloy and energy surcharges keep rising

Categories

Requested most often in Automotive

The 13 categories projects in this sector typically fall into — derived from the sector’s requirements, not from request statistics. A further 16 categories can be filtered for Automotive as well.

Filter all 29 categories

Manufacturing & Machining

Machining from single-part sampling through to series production. Partners in this category evidence their machine park, their tolerance classes and their gauge capability.

Automation & Robotics

Planning and building automated production cells — from the feasibility study through robot simulation to commissioning on the line.

Quality & Metrology

Metrology-room services, first-article sampling and gauge management to IATF 16949 and ISO 9001.

Materials & Metals

Material suppliers with complete test certificates to EN 10204 3.1/3.2 and batch traceability down to the point of installation — coil, sheet, section, forging and casting.

Plastics, Packaging & Textiles

Processors for injection moulding, extrusion, transport packaging and technical textiles — with process capability evidence, recyclate content and material conformity for food contact where required.

Industrial Software

Software partners for production control, machine data capture and integration at the line — with workable answers on data sovereignty and data protection. The company's software beyond the machine — ERP, network, workstation — sits in “IT & Software Solutions”.

Supplier Management & Audits

Auditors and qualification providers for supplier assessment, first-article inspection and due-diligence duties under the LkSG — with the audit report in the original rather than the supplier's own declaration.

Temporary Staffing & Contract Work

Staffing providers licensed for temporary agency work, plus contract-for-work and service-contract partners. The line between agency supply and contract for work is documented before the contract is signed — not once it is being examined.

Mechatronics & Systems Engineering

Mechatronic assemblies and special-purpose machinery where design, electronics and control software come from one source. Partners in this category deliver commissioning including risk assessment and the CE declaration of conformity under the Machinery Directive — rather than three trades that block each other at the interface.

Research & Development

Development providers, testing institutes and research bodies for materials and process development, prototyping and approval trials. Delimited against “Engineering & Design”: there a known principle is designed, here an unknown one is first made to work.

IT & Software Solutions

Business IT for industrial companies: ERP rollout, network and cloud infrastructure, custom development and IT security. Deliberately delimited against “Industrial Software” — there the software ends at the machine, here at the workstation. Partners work with a data processing agreement, an EU data centre and a documented deletion policy.

Legal & Compliance

Commercial law firms and compliance advisers for contract, employment, IT and corporate law. Inter Sozio Tech provides no legal service itself: we structure the need and make the introduction. The engagement arises solely between you and the firm, and we take no share of their fee.

Marketing & Communications

Industrial marketing for products that need explaining: technical writing, trade fair presence, B2B website and employer branding. Partners in this category work in line with data protection — reach measurement only after consent, applicant and prospect data inside the EU only.

Describe a project from Automotive

We keep no provider list for Automotive. Which company fits depends on the evidence framework of your specific project — describe it, and we search specifically for it.

The more precisely you describe it, the more specifically we can search — today for your project, and later as the basis for a comparison we have still to build. We come back to you within 72 hours.

Evidence framework of this sector

  • IATF 16949
  • VDA 6.3
  • PPAP Level 3
  • VDA 2
  • TISAX

Usual in this sector — not a list that applies flatly to every project. Which evidence your project needs is something we work out with you.

Describe what you need in three minutes

A short structured questionnaire is enough. Your request is read by a person; you hear back within 72 hours — free and without obligation.
