Why TISAX is not available in the standard assignment

Modified on Thu, 2 Apr at 4:21 PM

TISAX is not available by default in Q.wiki's standard mapping feature. This article explains why and what alternatives you have.

Problem

I want to structure TISAX in Q.wiki using the standard mapping and link it to my pages, but I cannot find it.

Root Cause

TISAX has a unique structure: It works through maturity level assessments, a question-and-answer format, and spider-web evaluations. This format doesn't fit well into Q.wiki's current standard mapping system, which is designed for simple assignment of standard chapters to Q.wiki pages.

Good to know: Short-term implementation of TISAX in the standard mapping is not planned. However, our Product Management is evaluating what extensions would be necessary in the long term.

Solution: Use the VDA Excel

Our recommendation: Use the free Excel file provided by the VDA. It's specifically designed for TISAX and allows you to link your Q.wiki pages directly.

  1. Download the TISAX Excel from the VDA (external).
  2. Enter your measures and link the corresponding Q.wiki pages.
  3. Export the completed Excel and upload it to the VDA's TISAX portal.
Important: The VDA Excel can be shared and uploaded – Q.wiki's standard mapping cannot. You won't be able to avoid using the Excel in any case.

Alternative: Add TISAX to the Standard Mapping Yourself

If you still want to evaluate whether TISAX works for you in Q.wiki's standard mapping, you can add TISAX as a custom standard.

  1. Follow the guide Add standard chapters to structure your TISAX chapters.
  2. You can also request this service from Modell Aachen – but we advise against this approach, as it doesn't match our content recommendation.
Caution: Even if you set up TISAX in the standard mapping, you'll still run into the system's structural limitations. The VDA Excel remains the better solution.
