Re: Annual PPAPs - keeping up

I do have an Excel spreadsheet with all the part numbers, due dates, pieces required and other notes. The problem is I need to work 24 hours a day! No, really, there has to be a better way. Thanks for your reply. I've been trying to get parts brought to the lab when the jobs requiring annuals are on setup. No luck so far, but will continue trying. We are on Just in Time system for a lot of jobs and I can't be holding things up.
Any more ideas from anyone else????
Thank you
The way is for your company to hire enough people to meet their requirements. If you're willing to work yourself 24 hours a day (especially if you're salary) an employer will gladly let you.

If you add in the time required to complete each annual inspection and it's impossible for you to meet them and your job responsibilities in the allocated time then the problem is on their end.

I think I've told the story here before about the time when I went to my boss, a VP of operations, and told him that there were no longer enough hours in the day to get everything done and that there were balls that would be dropped unless something changed. His "solution" was to send me to a time-management class. :truce:

Here's how I dealt with this problem.
Created a minimal Annual Validation procedure for all parts that included.
-Dim layout on 1 sample per cavity/mold/ect.
-Drawing verification
-Material verification
-Part specific checking-aid verification
-Control Plan audit, done very quickly, especially if you're familiar with the processs.

This took a lot less time than performing a complete PPAP package.
Only did the package if it was a specific customer requirement.

The way I got around out of spec dimensions after layout, issued an internal Corrective Action Request to responsible departments if the condition was deemed minor. In almost all cases they were, I didn't do a follow-up layout and was never hit by the registration auditors.
