To PPAP or not to PPAP - Level 2 - No in-house processing

[pcord]

I am new to this forum and this question has probably been asked before, but a customer of ours has requested a level 2 PPAP for a part we are going to buy from a distributor, send to someone else for a secondary operation and sell. Is it appropriate for us to be submitting a level 2 PPAP? I've already asked them what forms they would like to see since there seems to be some question over what exactly is in a level 2 PPAP. Thanks.

According to AIAG, a Level 2 PPAP consists of "Warrant with product samples and limited supporting data submitted to customer." So your customer will have to specify (in writing, I hope) what "limited supporting data" means. It could be a dimensional report, or a material test report, or both, or neither--it's the customer's call.

A word of caution. This description is correct as far as what actually is sent to the customer, but PPAP requires that you complete all requirements and maintain them on file. This includes the requirements for control plans, FMEAs, etc.

You're right, and I should have mentioned it. Thanks.

Where application PPAP mu Supplier ???

Good day !!!
It represents the material chain in bulk and I was certifyd by iso ts 16949:2002 has about 8 months.
My doubt is referring the application of PPAP for my suppliers.:mg:
I have that to apply the PPAP them new products/substance to only be approved or it is necessary to apply for the previous products/substance that already are approved and take care of the imposed specifications, however also was not applied the methodology of PPAP for its approval and one will be to use the same in new formularizations for customers whom the application of this methodology requested ?

I don´t know must clear...sorry

Normally, you do not apply new standards such as PPAP retroactively to product qualified prior to your preparation for TS16949. You should begin to apply it to new or changed product from the start of you preparation for TS registration forward.

Your customer may require that you have some of this information such as control plans to assure ongoing performance.

Well,

But, used substance/product in new devolopment, is a need request PPAP to my Old Supplier, if this is old Supplier already approved a long time ago (NOTE.:without PPAP) ?

Unfortunately, your customer will require it of you, so you have no choice but to pass it down to your supplier.The PPAP of your product includes all components and materials used in it. If you had an existing PPAP of that component/material on file, and it had not changed, you can usually include a copy of it in your PPAP and not require a new one from your supplier. In this case you never had a copy of the PPAP, so you must ask for one. If you then use it in another new product, you should be able to reuse a copy of this one unless your customer says otherwise.
