PPAP Submission Services

Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)

Automotive suppliers are required to go through a Production Part Approval Process, or PPAP submission, if introducing a new or modified part into the production process. This ensures that the client’s requirements are understood, the product meets those requirements, the process is capable of producing a conforming product, and that the product control plan along with the quality management system will prevent non-conforming parts from reaching the client.

PPAP submission packets can save automotive manufacturers time and money when completed correctly. However, failure to correctly and thoroughly complete the PPAP can result in lost time and money through failures and recalls.

Ensure your PPAP submission information is precise, accurate, and correctly reflects the abilities of your production process or operation. At Cross Precision Measurement, we know how important it is to keep production going. Work with our experts to ensure a smooth approval process for your PPAP submission.

Benefits of Professional PPAP Submission

PPAP is important for customers as well as suppliers. Customers (specifically, parts manufacturers or OEMs) are able to verify the production process for parts suppliers and ensure they’re able to meet production demands. Without this, manufacturers may not be able to provide the proof necessary to close the deal. The reverse is also true, with PPAPs being important for suppliers in understanding the needs of the customer.

An expertly done PPAP also allows both manufacturers and suppliers to have clearly defined expectations and documented proof of the agreement. A PPAP enforces standards but also provides trust and transparency for manufacturer relationships.

That’s why it’s so important to work with a professional offering PPAP submission services. At Cross, we can work directly with you to create the ideal PPAP to accurately reflect your process and production capabilities.
