I have come to realize that no two companies conduct their APQP/PPAP activities exactly alike. Is there a guide to what the most logical order for conducting a generic APQP
should be ? First you do this....then second you do that etc etc ... Does anyone have a comprehensive flow diagram ?

It will be a few weeks or so but I'll again have a pdf file posted. APQP is addressed in the APQP pdf file. Yes - there is a 'typical' expected sequence.

Do you have a copy of the AIAG APQP manual?

Nothing came back on this, obviously....

Contemporary comments on the differences in the APQP process between companies welcomed.
