PPAP Checklist
PPAP Checklist
3/29/15
Goals
· Supports the AIAG Service PPAP manual
· Supports the Ford Customer Specific Requirements for PPAP
· Provide guidelines to the supplier of appropriate support documents for element sections
· Can be used as a tool between the STA and the supplier to define required elements prior to a PPAP submission
· Can be submitted by the supplier to the STA as a Table of Contents for the PPAP
· Provides a section for the STA to identify requirements supporting regional or special needs
· Global Checklist to be used by all regions to support various PPAP scenarios
1. Is this part a current production Part/Assembly which is supplied to FCSD exactly as it is supplied to Production?
Yes – FCSD STA is not required to PPAP. The Production warrant will suffice provided the service part
number appears on the warrant with the corresponding engineering part number.
2. Is this part a component of a current production part which is unique to FCSD (not shipped to production at this level)?
Yes – FCSD STA must PPAP the service process used to manufacture this component. The approved production PPAP
can be used to support the service PPAP for areas that are common to production and service.
3. Is this Part/Assembly/Component out of production?
Yes – FCSD STA must PPAP
4. Is this Part/Assembly/Component a Vehicle Personalization part?
Yes – FCSD STA/Vehicle Personalization STA must PPAP
5. Is this a service Kit?
Yes – FCSD STA must PPAP
Definitions
Element Number: Requirement number directly related to the AIAG Service PPAP Manual
PPAP Element Name: Requirement name directly related to the AIAG Service PPAP Manual
Ford Requirements: Required PPAP document/evidence that the supplier must provide in the PPAP as listed and defined in the
Service Production Part Approval Process (Service PPAP) manual First edition (June 2014) and the Ford Motor Company
Customer-Specific Requirements (for use with PPAP 4.0)
Supplier / STA - Agreed upon Requirements (Required / Not Required): Used by the Supplier or STA to document which items
shall be prepared and submitted by the Supplier for review.
STA - Confirms Requirement (Accepted / Rejected /Alert Required): Used byt the STA to determine at the time of PPAP review
if the requirements have been met by the supplier.
Guidelines: Documents that have been identified as the supporting details to the Ford Requirements. One or multiple guidelines
can be used to support a Ford requirement.
Supplier - Check all that Apply to Submission (Yes/No): Indicates which document the supplier submitted to support the Ford
Requirement.

2.1 Significant PPAP Production runs less than 300 pieces and an 8 hour run When requirements for a 300 consecutive part run or 8
Run must be derived from a statistically significant sample hours of production may not be practical for low-volume
of a one year service release quantity or as determined service parts the quantity of parts needed for service PPAP
by the STA shall be a statistically significant sample of a one year
service release quantity or defined by the STA
