Re: Appearance Approval Report (AAR) Difficulties - Decorative Graphics Screen Printi

Basically what is actually AAR? Is this a form in which we let our suppliers fill-it up for us? Our supplier is a plastic assembly and we are not capable to make some test with regard to appearance and color evaluation? please advise.
thanks,

Since I'm clearly not the best source for this all I can offer is that as long as you are not creating or altering the appearance/colour/texture then your supplier should be filling this in. This is of course assuming that the AAR is being requested from you.

"AAR" stands for Appearance Approval Report. The form is in the AIAG PPAP manual. The automotive OEMs who use the AIAG system generally require cosmetic approval separately from PPAP approval (although the completed AAR form is included in PPAP submissions), and the form is the instrument for documenting approval. It's necessary only when the specifications include requirements for appearance. Typically, the form is filled out by the supplier and it's submitted (along with sample parts) to the customer's cosmetic approval authority. The sample and form are reviewed, and if approved, the customer representative signs the form and returns it to the supplier, who then includes the approved form in the PPAP submission.
