APQP APQP
Advanced Product Quality Planning
is suppliers planning
in compliance with AIAG reference manual
It is a VOLVO
requirement (incl.
RTS, PAA, PHR) as
specified in SQAM
Pre-requisite: supplier is trained to APQP
according to AIAG reference and its own
development process is in compliance with it

APQP APQP
What does APQP mean for Volvo?
Supplier APQP team is responsible for performing the APQP and report to
Volvo team during the APQP review meetings, using the APQP review
check-list
A very detailed supplier timing chart synchronised with Volvo project milestones
A very detailed APQP check-list review aiming to identify and manage risks
A management by project phases (not by activity as it was done in the past)
A regular Volvo-supplier APQP follow-up meeting with formal reviews prior to
VOLVO releases
Additional 3 Volvo specific best practices (RTS, PAA, PHR)
A robust way of working cross-functionally between Volvo and supplier aiming to
deliver a project at contracted QDCF

APQP APQP
APQP is supplier's planning that integrates VOLVO
inputs, constraints and deliverables and is synchronized
with VOLVO project milestones
Examples of Volvo inputs:
Technical requirements
Time plan: part release dates, PPAP date, SP date
Prototype requirements
Verification and validations performed by Volvo
.
APQP simplified
process flow

Benefits of APQP
Secures supplier project management is in place
Ensures early planning takes place
Establishes pro-active communication on both
Volvo and supplier side
Identifies required changes early in the process in
order to mitigate risks and to reduce need for late
design and process changes
Provides quality product on time and at lower cost
Improves PPAP approved on time
Reduces PPM levels at SOP
Reduces field failures
Stronger &earlier suppliers involvement in Projects

APQP What to keep in mind ?
APQP is owned by supplier and reported to Volvo,
using the APQP review file

It is reviewed at least at each APQP review meeting
APQP should contain enough details to be understandable
Critical path and risk areas should be identified
The plan must drive actions
There will be problem: they must be fixed or escalated
