Seminar Content
This one-day overview addresses all the elements of Advance Product Quality Planning
(APQP) and defines it as a process in your organization. It provides an overview
of the 5 phases of APQP and how it is managed as a process. It also details PPAP
as the culmination of the APQP process and provides a detailed examination of Production
Part Approval Process requirements.
We will focus on determining if all customer engineering, design record, and specification
requirements are properly understood, and that the production process has the potential
to meet these requirements during an actual production run at the quoted production
rate.
The approaches discussed and employed in this course are consistent with the intent
and guidelines in the PPAP 4th Edition manual issued by GM, Ford and FCA through
the AIAG.
