I have a question that may seem confusing and that is because it is confusing. If anyone can decipher this and give me some input that would be great. Here is the situation.
Assembly A has a dash number of -004 and that is where the base documentation is at. Now we build this assembly at this level. As some point in time the assembly gets a revision change and instead of using the normal DRW rev. or BOM rev system of change the customer changes the assembly # to a different dash number say -005. Now the customer says that this change is the addition of the 52 jumper wires and 2 IC's, and it only is requiring a delta FAI to the -004 part. Keep in mind that while the -004, and the -005 both share the same PCB but the documentation for them is at their own level. Meaning if the -005 goes to a -985 it is the same assembly less coating or bond, etc, but the baseline documentation is at -005. Now if there was never a FAI performed at all at the -005 level and the board went to a -006 it is my opinion that it would need a FULL FAI at that level.
In my opinion this kind of change is a delta to the base line part number. If the change goes across two baseline part numbers then it should be a FULL FAI to create a baseline.
I know this sound crazy, but we are struggling here and I would like to see what if anything anyone can make out of this. Thanks
