What Is APQP?
• APQP is a ‘defined’ process for a product
development ‘system’ for Ford, GM, Chrysler
and their suppliers.
• APQP is an attempt to provide a common
path and synchronization of product
development activities.
• APQP is an attempt to ensure communication
both within a company and between a
company and their customer.

APQP Phases
Think Critical Paths

• Phase 1: Plan & Define Program


° Where do we want to go?

• Phase 2: Product Design & Development Verification


° Can we design one?

• Phase 3: Process Design & Development Verification


° Can we make one?

• Phase 4: Product & Process Validation


° Proof of Phases 2 and 3.

• Phase 5: Feedback Assessment & Corrective Action


° Production, Continuous Improvement, Prevent Recurrence

This is how the APQP and Control Plan manual graphically represents the process it describes.
To a large degree, this can be looked at as Critical Paths in the process. You have to do planing
before you do product and process design and development. You have to do product and process
design and development before you can do product and process validation. Another way of saying
this is to say the phases are Dependent. Each phase (except Phase 1) is dependent upon
elements of (outputs from) the previous phase.
