If you stopped all #PPAP activity in your company, Would anyone care?

 

If you stopped all PPAP activity in your company, Would anyone care?

 

Most people that answer this question is No, some say it with more adjectives!

 

If that is the case in your company, the bottom line is that you are doing PPAP wrong.  The wrong way is for to simply comply with a customer requirement.  If that is the case, do the minimum amount of effort as possible and send the spreadsheet.

 

I was presenting at a recent ASQ Division conference, and I was pleased to have someone come up to me and say “This is the first time I have heard someone talk about PPAP in a way that my executives will understand.  I have attended PPAP training that tells me how to fill out the forms, but they fail to discuss, in simple terms, why my executives should care.”

 

As a result, I am proud to announce a Better #PPAP Deployment workshop that driven by supporting the business goals.

 

Happy to connect if you would like to learn more…

Farnborough International Airshow 2024 - Aerospace Supply Chain Grapples with APQP PPAP Challenges. A groundbreaking new approach to addressing these challenges is expected to be unveiled following the airshow.

Farnborough International Airshow 2024 - Aerospace Supply Chain Grapples with APQP PPAP Challenges. A groundbreaking new approach to addressing these challenges is expected to be unveiled following the airshow. #FarnboroughInternationalAirshow #Aerospace #SupplyChain #APQP #PPAP

 

Cleveland, Ohio – Jul 24 2024 – The aerospace industry is facing significant hurdles in implementing the Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) and Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) standards outlined in AS9145. Adopted from the automotive industry’s AIAG framework, these standards are essential for ensuring product quality and safety. However, challenges in data management and collaboration are hindering widespread adoption.

While the aerospace industry has recognized the importance of APQP and PPAP, the reliance on spreadsheets for managing this critical business process has become a major bottleneck. The automotive industry has successfully transitioned to relational databases to streamline these processes, but the aerospace sector has been slower to adapt.

PeProSo, an internationally recognized subject matter expert on APQP PPAP is working closely with aerospace OEMs and suppliers to address these challenges. The company is developing a cost-effective, rapid deployment solution that offers complete control over hosting, customization, and integration. “We attempted to create a unified aerospace consortium to tackle this issue, but encountered resistance from companies concerned about proprietary data,” said John Cachat, CEO of PeProSo. “Some companies are even attempting to develop their own solutions.”

A groundbreaking new approach to addressing these challenges is expected to be unveiled following the upcoming airshow.  

Efforts are underway to apply AI/ML digitization tools to support APQP PPAP 4.0 effort.
