TS 16949 - 5.4 Planning, 7.1 Planning of product realization, 7.5.1.1 Control Plan

[Rosana]

I am having a problem understanding the difference between
5.4 Planning
7.1 Planning of product realization
7.5.1.1 Control Plan

Could someone give me an explanation with an example(s)?

In the company I am working for we are producing parts for trucks and we design these parts too.

Thanks in advance

Rosana

5.4 is more to do with management planning (aims of top management)
7.1 is aimed at product planning (describe the systems which ensure product quality)
7.5.1.1 is good old fashioned quality control in a list
I think!
Yours

For us, 5.4 relates to our business plan where quality plans are discussed and objectives set. 7.1, again for us, describes the process for how we industrialize new products or processes. 7.5.1.1 describes our control plan vis-a-vis the QS9K format. It is driven off of our process flow chart and FMEA and is product-specific. There are several good threads on control plans in the forum,so check those out. Some folks have given actual examples there.
