Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) Overview Course

PPAP Overview Training

Course Duration: 1 Day - 8 Hours/day

PPAP is the benchmark production material qualification process across manufacturing sectors, first introduced by the automotive sector and now adopted by aerospace and others. This one-day overview course focuses on the automotive version, showing how PPAP is the culmination of the Advanced Product Quality Process (APQP) and providing a detailed examination of PPAP requirements. Participants will have a unique opportunity to assess an actual PPAP package during the seminar and determine if it meets PPAP requirements. Participants will also understand the importance of customer-specific requirements as they apply to PPAP and review some examples.

The approaches discussed and employed in this course are consistent with the intent and requirements in the PPAP 4th Edition Reference Manual issued by FCA, Ford and General Motors, published by the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG).
