What is PPAP?
What is a Production Part Approval Process?
PPAP stands for Production Part Approval Process. PPAP requirements represent the culmination and reporting of activities that any “quality” supplier already does. Documented and observed evidence is required of suppliers to demonstrate they can meet customer requirements prior to regular production runs. It is a process to show your customers that you can make their parts on an ongoing basis.
