Advanced Quality Planning (AQP): A structured method of defining and establishing the steps necessary
to assure that a newly developed part satisfies the customer.

Appearance Technical Approval Report (ATAR): A document submitted as part of the Production Part
Approval Process. Submission of a completed and approved Appearance Approval Report during PPAP
is required for all designated appearance items.

Appearance Item: A designation assigned to a vehicle component. Appearance items are components
with visible areas where color, gloss or texture/surface finish are considered to be significant quality
characteristics to the final customer and must be controlled from component development and release
through volume production and service applications. Typically appearance items are part numbers that
contain “TRM” or are 10 digit single-color part numbers (consider only parts visible at final vehicle build).

The Part Information Page (PIP) must include this Standard “AS-10119<A>” under “Standards” (refer to
Figure 1).

Assembly Plant Review: A review conducted at the assembly plant during, prior to, and/or after launch, to
evaluate appearance match of components of randomly sampled vehicles (ref: PRO.00005).

Global Vehicle Development (GVD): The Stellantis process for new vehicle development. Its key
principles are front loaded planning, reduced cycle times, assuring design feasibility, and achieving 100%
product/process design completion before launch. It incorporates amended milestones of VP (verification
of process build) and PS (pre-volume production build).

Cluster Norm: Stellantis specification that have been deemed as accepted by both groups as they are,
without making any technical modification.

CoDeP: Bill of Material and Product Configurator system used to describe all configurations of a vehicle,
mainly for EMEA & LATAM lead programs.

specified by the Stellantis Product Design Office. Each of these specified requirements is identified by a
Master Number, Ornamentation Master Number or Mastering Aid.

Engineering Bill of Material (EBOM): A mainframe database application used at Stellantis for managing
design information of Engineering-released parts.

First Surface: The visible topography of individual components.

Gloss: Angular selectivity of reflectance, involving surface-reflected light, responsible for the degree to
which reflected highlights or images of objects may be seen as superimposed on a surface (ref: ASTM
E284, LP.7M032).

Grain: The arrangement or direction of fibers in wood, or the pattern resulting from this, can be either a
natural or man-made pattern.

Mapping/Marriage: For shared NAFTA & EMEA programs using EBOM/CN and CoDeP/ODM
respectively, information contained must be related according to the governing rules of Mapping (for part
numbers in EBOM/CoDeP) and Marriage (for CN/ODM).

Master Specimen: A physical property whose color, gloss, surface texture or appearance conforms to the
specified appearance requirements. All Master Specimens are specified and controlled by the FCA
Product Design Office appropriate Studio / Style and EPQ&D. Procurement of Master Specimens can be
found in PS-4559<A>.

Mastering Aid: A gloss or surface texture standard specified by the Stellantis Product Design Office.
Mastering Aids are published for designated appearance items in lieu of Trim Specification Reports or
Ornamentation Master Numbers when a specific color standard is not applicable. Physical specimens of
Mastering Aids are not routinely distributed. Examples of Mastering Aids appear in Table 4.

Table 4 - Example of Mastering Aids

Prefix Type of Specification Typical Code (description)
CAF Chrysler Aluminum Finish number CAF-133 (fine horizontally brushed aluminum)
CPF Chrysler Plated Finish number CPF-501 (satin chrome plate)
CPM-621+MGD (Shadow texture with Micro Gloss
CPM Chrysler Pattern Material number
Diffusion)

Master Color Code: For NAFTA, a three-character, alphanumeric identification code assigned to a
unique color by the Product Design Office. The Color Code is appended to the Master Number to
completely describe the finished appearance of a designated appearance item released under a Trim
Specification Report (found in EBOM under “ENVQ” screen). For EMEA, it is an alphanumeric
identification code assigned to a unique color by CoDeP group.
 Page: 7/13
AS-10119<A>
Change Level: M

Master Number: A five-character, alphanumeric identification code assigned to a designated appearance

item by the Product Design Office. This code identifies the base material, manufacturing process and the
finished appearance (less color) of parts and assemblies released under a Trim Specification Report
(found in EBOM under “ENVL” screen).

Order Code: A two-character code appearing on a Trim Specification Report to designate a unique
vehicle color scheme (found in EBOM under “ENVX” screen).

verify facilities. Build vehicles for certification test plan. Components are produced by suppliers using
production tooling and equipment. Build of saleable vehicles for fast feedback and rental fleet feedback-
program. All components used must have completed the PPA (Process Planning and Audit) and
received full Production Part Approval Process warrants.

S00: A three position code that replaces the TRM of the ten positions EBOM trim color part number. The
three positions are in the 6th, 7th, and 8th position of the EBOM trim color part number. “S00” will appear in
most systems after Engineering has either disclosed or released the trim part number in EBOM and no
trim specifications have yet been created for that part usage.

1. The trim part suffixes the supplier will see will be “S00,” since no color explosion will occur before the
final color release Action Letter/Bulletin. Suppliers will need to get the color of their parts required for
VP pilots from either the Stellantis Engineer or from the Supplier Bulletin Board, not from PDO.
2. Purchase orders will be created for trim part suffix “S00” to enable suppliers to get paid for the parts
they ship.
3. The initial color explosion to replace the “S00” will be done on an VP CN, so as not to cancel the
“S00” trim part suffix.

Studio: A product-specific department located or affiliated within the Stellantis Product Design Office.

Surface Finish: The final treatment or coating of a surface.

Texture: A single or multi-level surface characteristic that imparts a unique appearance and/or tactile
quality. Coated surfaces, fabrics, plastic parts, polished aluminum parts, leather and vinyl are all
examples of materials that can receive texture (ref: PRO.00008<A>).

Things Gone Wrong/Things Gone Right (TGW/TGR): A summary report of difficulties encountered and
results achieved during the development program. TGW/TGR reports are prepared and distributed to
promote continuous improvement.

4.3 Process Responsibilities

4.3.1 Product Team

Responsibility for developing new appearance items belongs to the Product Team. At a minimum, the
team consists of representatives from Engineering, Product Design Office, Supplier Quality and the First
tier (end-item) supplier.
 Page: 10/13
AS-10119<A>
Change Level: M

The Product Team Engineer is responsible to identify parts as appearance items (Refer to Section 4.4).

Appearance items are components with visible areas where color, gloss or surface texture/finish are
considered to be significant quality characteristics to the final customer and must be controlled from
component development and release through volume production and service applications. Typical
designated appearance items are those parts with EBOM part numbers that contain “TRM” or are 10
digits single-color part numbers (consider only parts visible at final vehicle build). In CoDeP, these are
part numbers belonging to the “colorati” and “incolorati” ranges ( NOTE: The mapping of part numbers in
EBOM/CoDeP must be coherent (ie: TRM corresponds to Incolorate .).

4.3.2 Product Design Office

Development of appearance Masters Specimens for suppliers and facilities is the responsibility of the
Interior and Exterior Mastering Studio(s). The distribution of Master specimens is detailed under
Engineering Standard PS-4559<A> “Distribution of Master Specimens for Designated Appearance Items”
for Stellantis and 08094 “Cosmetic/Sensorial Reference Standards Making and Management Procedure”
for Stellantis.

4.3.3 Quality Assurance

The proper care, handling and storage of distributed Master Specimens, is the responsibility of the quality
assurance activity associated with the recipient organization.

4.3.4 End Item Supplier

Ensuring that appearance items match the master for color, gloss and surface texture/finish for
Production Part Approval Process, vehicle production and service supply, is the responsibility of the First
tier (end-item) supplier.

4.4 Identifying Designated Appearance Items on Engineering Source Documents

Appearance parts are to be identified in Engineering Source documents.

4.4.1 PIP – Part Information Page

The PIP (Part Information Page) identifies all applicable special characteristics and engineering standards
related to the part design. Under “Special Characteristics”, for identifying appearance parts, the
Appearance category needs to be “flagged” using a “Y” for yes. When the user applies Engineering
Standard AS-10119<A> to the PIP, the PIP comment page must include this standard (Refer to Figure 1).
