AS9145 (APQP & PPAP) in Context – eLearning

Course Description

This 1 hour, online course provides an integration of AS9145 requirements into the Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) process. Learn the skills needed to understand and implement all five phases of the APQP process, develop control plans and complete the production part approval process (PPAP) smoothly, efficiently and effectively within your organization. 

Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) and Control Plans reduce the complexity of product quality planning for customers and suppliers by allowing customers to easily communicate their product quality planning requirements to their suppliers. Suppliers gain an understanding of basic industry requirements for achieving part approval from their customer. Control Plans summarize the identified process and product parameters required to maintain product conformity. These tools are applicable throughout the supply base in all customer/supplier relationships. The standard is currently used across many manufacturing sectors, and APQP defines the required inputs and outputs of each stage of the product development process.
