OK small company, ISO 9001:1994 upgrading to 2000, inexperienced Quality person (me), little to no budget, no copy of PPAP manual (that I know of), one major customer that is QS and requires PPAPs.
Besides combing thru all the posts here
can anyone point me to some beginners info for PPAP processing and submissions (preferably for free).
Our company and I have submitted some simple level 1 and 2 PPAPs. I basically copied the work our last QA guy did.
We just got a Level 3 PPAP for a simple part we make out of basic steel. The new part is the same except it now is spring steel.
I will probably call the customer and verify what info they want/need today or tommorrow.
On paper the PPAP states:
Level 3 - Warrant with product samples and complete supporting data submitted to customer
Retention/Submission Requirements: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,16,19
I know how to do part layouts, control plans, inspection reports, Gage R&R, and we have software to verify the cpk stuff (?).
But what is this retention/submission stuff?????
I'm at a loss.
Any specific or general help will be greatly appreciated.
