Expert International Material Data System compliance services for the automotive industry. Navigate complex regulations with confidence.
The International Material Data System (IMDS) is the automotive industry’s centralized material data repository. Created by leading automotive manufacturers including Audi, BMW, Daimler, Ford, Opel, Porsche, Volkswagen, and Volvo, IMDS contains comprehensive information on every component used in vehicle manufacturing.
IMDS enables the entire automotive supply chain to meet environmental regulations and sustainability requirements. For automotive suppliers, IMDS submission is typically a contractual requirement as part of the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP). Without proper IMDS data, components cannot receive approval for production.
