The control plan for production is simply the pre-release control plan, but with no containment actions or additional checks added to ensure initial quality.
Again, this control plan must follow the AIAG format.
objective
The objective of the PPAP is to determine if all engineering design records and customer specifications are properly understood by the supplier and that the process has the potential to consistently produce meeting these requirements during a current production run.
What is it for?
The PPAP will apply to the sites of internal and external suppliers of production materials, in production parts and service parts.
Elements to consider
- The production control plan must capture all present / potential failure modes. The production control plan must include all quality controls present in the production. Development / timelines to develop the production control plan.
PPAP requirements
PPAP requirements vary based on an assigned level of submission to the supplier and / or party identification (number). The engineering quality supply is responsible for assigning a submission level. The level of submission is generally determined during the process based on these factors:
- Critical parts Experience in previously presented parts Fulfillment of supplies are the requirements of the quality of the system Proficiency of the supplier with a specific merchandise (part)
PPAP Goals
The goals of PPAP are to provide your organization with the tools and resources it needs to create its own solutions.
- Develop and advance AAPA Component organizations Consolidate partnership with constituent organizations and their leaders Provide technical assistance to AAPA Component organizations Develop peers as resources
