PPM - wrong parts or defective parts?

Agreed. If you need the parts ASAP and can clean them, then they still count against the PPM and I would look to back charge any significant labor used to bring the items into conformance.[/quote]
Whether or not the cost of remedial actions may be charged back depends on the contract or explicit agreement from the supplier.

Also you don't count each metal chip as a nonconformance, you count the number of parts that have those metal chips (very likely the entire shipment or crate or box)
There should be no need to look at each part; as Al suggested, the entire lot should be rejected, with the total quantity in the lot to be counted against PPM.
