Understanding that A PPAP is required when production of a new product or part is planned and when there is any significant change to a product or process, what is the actual requirement for a PPAP when a tool is repaired or refurbished and there is no change to the product or process?
We have suppliers that submit Level 2 PPAPs to us upon request. We have suppliers that supply an ISIR with dimensionals and parts. What I am looking for is what the actual requirement is. Is there a point in a repair where it becomes a significant change? Are we asking too much of our suppliers or not enough?
I should mention that these are our tools manufactured at the supplier and the supplier is running production parts off of the tools.
