SCR-PPAP ( The Production Part Approval Process )

The Production Part Approval Process(PPAP) is used in the automotive supply chain to establish confidence in component suppliers and their production processes, by demonstrating that all customer engineering design record and specification requirements are properly understood by the supplier and that the process has the potential to produce product consistently meeting these requirements during an actual production run at the quoted production rate

The PPAP process in closely related to the Advanced Product Quality Planning process (APQP) used during the design and development of new vehicles and component systems to reduce the risk of unexpected failure due to errors in design and manufacture.

The PPAP manual is published by the Automotive Industrial Action Group (AIAG), and specifies generic requirements for obtaining PPAP approvals. Additional customer specific requirements may be imposed by particular clients (vehicle manufacturers) and incorporated in the purchasing contracts.

Details of 'customer specific' requirements may be found on the AIAG website or supplier portals provided by the vehicle manufacturers.

Suppliers are required to obtain PPAP approval from the vehicle manufacturers whenever a new or modified component is introduced to production, or the manufacturing process is changed. Obtaining approval requires the supplier to provide sample parts and documentary evidence showing that

  • The clients requirements have been understood
  • The product supplied meets those requirements
  • The process (including sub suppliers) is capable of producing conforming product
  • The production control plan and quality management system will prevent non-conforming product reaching the client or compromising the safety and reliability of finished vehicles

SCR-PPAP Features and Benefits:
SCR PPAP defines and documents the product development process from the design phase to manufacturing and ultimately to continuous improvement:
View your documents real-time from any location with an Internet connection. Maintain only one database for the entire enterprise.
Standardizes your PPAP processes and documentation in all of your plants to allow for consistent processes and accurate process/product analysis. Connects the Design FMEA to the Process FMEA so that failure mode effects from the design can be incorporated into the manufacturing process and controlled effectively.
Automated PPAP document creation builds FMEA s and Control Plans in minutes. Data linkages ensure that changes made to a control plan or FMEA automatically update all related PPAP documents.

Engineering changes made to the specifications of a product family will automatically update the Process FMEA s, Control Plans, and related documents of all of the parts that are within that product family. View your documents real-time from any location with-in the network or with an Internet connection . Maintain single database for the entire enterprise. Make a change in one document, e.g. Process Flow, PFMEA, Control Plan, and SCR PPAP changes related documents automatically.

Submit or receive any of the PPAP documents to/from your customer with single click of your mouse. you can import any of your existing PFMEA or Control Plan documents into the SCR PPAP Software to reduce costly data conversion issues

SCR PPAP allows you to create, modify, and customize the views of your documents so your users and customers only see what they need to see. SCR PPAP is designed to integrate with other systems that you might already have in place, including:



Using SCR PPAP you can import data from a wide variety of applications, including most ERP,SAP, PLM, MS word documents and Excel Sheets.

Using SCR PPAP module administrator can provide individual or group user rights as read only or Edit Access for each document , a group of documents , or to all documents
