Collectively, this five-day series of seminars are intended to provide a basic understanding of the Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) Core Tools and their use in New Product Development to ensure a successful launch and capable serial production. These Core Tools play a significant role in the planning, development, and launch of new products and processes.
These Core Tools include the following:
- The five phases of APQP itself
- Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)
- Design Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (DFMEA) and Design Verification Plan & Report (DVP&R)
- Process Failure Mode Effects Analysis (PFMEA) and Control Plans
- Statistical Process Control (SPC)
- Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA)
Learning Objectives
- Understand the five phases of APQP for New Product Development and its relationship to program management and the knowledge and skills needed to participate in an APQP team
- Understand the PPAP protocol, elements, deliverables and submission/approval process
- Understand how to develop and use DFMEA and DVP&R to identify and address design risk during the product development process and in support of the manufacturing process development process
- Understand how to achieve robust and comprehensive process control, process standardization and process improvement using Process Flow Diagrams, PFMEA and Process Control Plans
- Understand the use of SPC to monitor and measure variation in manufacturing processes ad to identify and correct problem where they arise
- Understand MSA and the statistical tests employed to determine measurement variation and measurement uncertainty for the effective management of measurement systems
- APQP
- Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)
- DFMEA/DVP&R
- Process Flow
- Process FMEA
- Control Plans
- Work Instructions
- SPC
- MSA
Who Should Attend
This seminar is designed for Internal Auditors, Management Representatives, ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 Implementation Teams, and others who would like to develop judgment and decision-making in ISO 9001, IATF 16949 and to learn how to effectively audit the New Product Development activities.
Each participant will receive a seminar manual. All concepts will be introduced using examples. Group exercises will make use of an example product and process.
Participants should possess a working knowledge of, as well as some experience in ISO-based quality management systems, as well as a firm understanding of basic quality tools.
