What PPAP level would you request for a production part provided by a distributor?
When I worked at anyTier 2 important company, we used to raise Purchase Orders to distributor when we run out of parts of the main manufacturer.
The P.O was raised but I think no PPAP was needed,
Is this not outside procedure?. :mg:
It seems that all the PPAPl procedure is focused on manufacturers but what´s up with distributors, they have also processes and legal responsability.
They stockage the product in their warehouses, they transport the product at what condition?, they sell us the product.
Couriously I have seen many problem due to these practices, when we were going to stop a tier 1 customer, we went to the market to buy the run out product, but sometimes this component was damaged due to the stock conditions.
I do not know if PPAP manual has an special level for these people?.
Whether not I think a procedure must be raise from AITF
i.e
Special PSW, process flow, AMFE, Special final SPC, Not MSA???
Your opinnion would be much apreciated
Regards.
