Example APQP Characteristics Matrix

I am student,just want to review the form of the Matrix.
Another problem is if I will draw a detailed flow chart of the APQP process,the first layer coves the 5 main steps,but how to draw a more detailed and decomposed diagram for each step? Can anyone do a help for me to show a example.
I am very regret for it's so expensive for me to purchase the APQP manual.

I have sent a copy of a characteristics matrix to your e-mail address.

With regards to your flow chart, are you looking to determine when and where items such as FMEA's fit into the APQP process?

Any chance I could beg you to upload it here as an attachment for others as well?

Taking advantaje of bool2004 request.... I'm also working trying to diagram the APQP process and determinate each activitie's input/output( special interest in predecessors activities).
We currently are using a excell work sheet to list all activities related, but honestly isn't help to much to see who is waiting from who to initiate the documentation/activity......any help will be appreciated.

Process Flow Diagram

We are having a discussion on the numbering of "Storage" and "Moves" on the process flow diagrams. Do we number these moves or do we leave them un numbered? Then, does the numbering carry over to the FMEA and the Control Plan OR.. may we eliminate the numbers for the storage and the moves?

Thanks :bonk:

I number all storages, moves and inspection steps and, YES, they carry over to the PFMEA and Control Plan. A couple of our customers have stated that "if it is a step in your processing flow, it needs to be numbered". I have just carried it over to all customers.

Is it really necessary to number any "step"? Probably not as long as the processing actions flow the same way between documents. I'm not sure of the history of the "requirement".

Good luck!!

I like Bill also number moves storage inspection etc and include all numbered operations on all documents but additionally, where applicable ,put a comment such as "Process Included for Information Only – Inspection element of each failure mode is included within the Detection criteria on individual process failure modes"

Always found it far easier to explain if numbering is consistent and hate checking incoming PPAP's which are inconsistent in numbering.

Storage and moves are actions that need to be controlled and I am sure that you control them. Some components or raw materials need special conditions. Movement can be to the wrong places, wrong times etc.
These should be refered to in the FMEA and the control plan. Most of the Failure Modes are plant wide but some could be specific depending on your industry and/or product.
A manner of dealing with these operations is to perform a plant wide FMEA on storage, movement and other general issues, after all this is not only to submit to the customer it is for you.
This is a good way to get staff that might never be involved in such actions aligned with the tools.
You might be surprised at what you learn.
Update these FMEA's every year, after all the control plan for these operations is in fact your procedures/work instructions etc.

As for numbering I always used increments of 10 to enable me to number additional stages with the sequential number.
