Note that in your company, you might label departments or functional areas differently, or you may assign responsibilities differently. Process Engineering in one company is called Manufacturing Engineering in another company. In addition, your company may use multi-functional input where in this example a single source is identified. Your task is to identify where, in your company, you derive the required information for each column.

This is an example of a control plan header. I suggest that you peruse the APQP and Control Plan manual you have (pages 37 through 47) and review their examples and their explanations of what goes in each column. While items 1 through 14 are important, they are self evident for the most part. Items 15 through 26 are what you should focus on (as numbered in the APQP and Control Plan manual).

Making the control plan is not particularly difficult, but remember it’s place and it’s relationships to other documents.
