Document
1. Design Records
A copy of the drawing. If the customer is responsible for designing, this is a copy of customer drawing that is sent together with
Order (PO). If supplier is responsible for designing this is a released drawing in supplier’s release system.
2. Authorized Engineering Change Documents
A document that shows the detailed description of the change. Usually this document is called “Engineering Change Notice”, bu
covered by the customer PO or any other engineering authorization.
3. Customer Engineering Approval, if required
This approval is usually the Engineering trial with production parts performed at the customer plant. A “temporary deviation” usu
required to send parts to customer before PPAP. Customer may require other “Engineering Approvals”.
4. Design Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (DFMEA), applied in special situations
A copy of the Design Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (DFMEA), reviewed and signed-off by supplier and customer.
5. Process Flow Diagram
A copy of the Process Flow, indicating all steps and sequence in the fabrication process, including incoming components.
6. Process Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (PFMEA)
A copy of the Process Failure Mode and Effect Analyis (PFMEA), reviewed and signed-off by supplier and customer. The PFME
Process Flow steps, and indicate “what could go wrong” during the fabrication and assembly of each component.
7. Control Plan
A copy of the Control Plan, reviewed and signed-off by supplier and customer. The Control Plan follows the PFMEA steps, and
details on how the “potential issues” are checked in the incoming quality, assembly process or during inspections of finished pro
A list of every dimension noted on the ballooned drawing. This list shows the product characteristic, specification, the measurem
and the assessment showing if this dimension is “ok” or “not ok”. Usually a minimum of 6 pieces is reported per product/process
A summary of every test performed on the part. This summary is usually on a form of DVP&R (Design Verification Plan and Re
lists each individual test, when it was performed, the specification, results and the assessment pass/fail. If there is an Engineeri
Specification, usually it is noted on the print. The DVP&R shall be reviewed and signed off by both customer and supplier engin
The quality engineer will look for a customer signature on this document. In addition, this section lists all material certifications (
