how to decide the submission level for PPAP

Hello, all.
I am confused now. :confused: I met a project. The production has been approved already, but now need to change the composition for raw material, so the supplier should submit PPAP again, and there are some principles for the submission level for the different situations? :thanx:

Depends on what you're dealing with. Default for bulk materials (i.e., drums of chemical) is a Level 1 PPAP. Default for "pieces" is Level 3. The customer should ultimately dictate which level he/she wants you to submit.

Hope this helps.

I would suggest that you contact the customer first to ask if he is willing to approve a change of material. Sometimes the customer will want a financial benefit for approving this change.

In essence the documentation exists and the only new documents are the dimensional report, capabilities and material certs, all the rest you have.
Please ask the customer that is the KEY
