Live Office Hours at 11 am Eastern, 10 am Central, and 9 am Pacific Time. 

A live, practical session for companies navigating the TISAX® process in 2026

Preparing for a TISAX audit can raise a lot of questions, especially if your organization is going through the process for the first time.

What does the assessment involve? 

What should you know before getting started? 

Even, what does TISAX stand for, and why is it so important in the automotive supply chain?

Our new TISAX® Office Hours format is designed to give you direct access to practical answers in a relaxed, pitch-free setting.

Join DQS subject matter expert Sandeep Pauddar for a live session where clients, prospects, and organizations exploring TISAX® can ask their questions and gain a clearer understanding of the assessment process.

Bring your TISAX® questions

This is not a sales presentation.

Join this open Office Hours session focused on the questions participants bring into the conversation, held by our Global Program Director with decades of auditing experience, Sandeep Pauddar.

As well as sharing insights into the TISAX® process, he will respond to participant questions based on the topics that come up during the session. Depending on the interests of the group, the discussion may touch on areas such as:

  • The role of TISAX® in the automotive industry
  • Common questions before starting a TISAX audit
  • General expectations around the TISAX® assessment process
  • How organizations typically interpret TISAX certification requirements
  • Customer and OEM expectations related to information security
  • Points to keep in mind when selecting an approved audit provider

Please note: TISAX® is an assessment mechanism, not a certification in the traditional sense. This Office Hours session is intended to provide general educational information and does not include consultancy or company-specific implementation advice.

If your TISAX® scope includes personal data or production systems, these changes will significantly impact your documentation and technical safeguards. Preparing now means fewer surprises later—and less risk of delays when interacting with OEM compliance teams.
