The 3rd Edition New Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) manual and 1st Edition Control Plan are in the early rollout phase. OEMs in the U.S., along with some in Europe, are requiring Electronic FMEAs and the new APQP and Control Plan. Now is the time to embrace electronic APQP, Control Plans, and linked FMEAS (both DFMEA and PFMEA).
Significant changes are found in both the APQP and the new Control Plan manuals, which address the needs of the latest ICE and hybrid vehicles and new electric vehicles. The APQP includes linked tools from planning, product design, process design, PPAP, and production, and there are gated reviews with checklists in the overall APQP process.
In this webinar, experts will discuss the most significant changes found in the new manuals, as well as the best approaches to address the latest release of the APQP and Control Plan. Discover how an electronic APQP, complete with linked DFMEA, test plans, process flow, PFMEAs, and control plans, ensures the effectiveness of the new APQP and Control Plan.
