Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)
Although on the surface, PPAP, or Production Part Approval Process, may appear to simply be a first-sample submission procedure, it is in fact much more than this. The PPAP package provides your customer with evidence of your effectively implemented APQP process. It provides your customer a snapshot of your quality system as it applies to the specific product he will buy and provides you with signed approval from him that it meets his requirements. The PPAP package includes many of the documents that result from the activities in your Product Quality Plan, such as the Design and Process FMEA's, Control Plans, Measurement System Analysis and Process Capability Studies. Process Champions offers training and consulting to aid you in preparing high-quality PPAP documents for submission to your customers. Furthermore, for automotive companies, ISO/TS16949 requires that the entire supply chain be developed to comply with ISO/TS16949. Process Champions can help you develop your key suppliers through performing supplier audits, gap analyses and training. Contact us for details and quotations. On-Site Training
