Common use of Product Certification Process Clause in Contracts

Product Certification Process. ▇▇▇▇▇ may utilize a modified Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) incorporated into the Part Qualification process. This modified process allows ▇▇▇▇▇ to make the Part Qualification Process simple, flexible and adaptable according to the requirements of the product and / or component. The PPAP process may be used to qualify both new purchased parts and changes to existing parts or the manufacturing process and / or equipment. How and when a PPAP is applied is defined by specific situations called out in the PPAP requirements procedure. If a PPAP is required for a purchased part material, or product the supplier will be informed by ▇▇▇▇▇. The supplier is responsible for ensuring that the sourced product meets all the requirements identified both on the part print and all other referenced documents. If a PPAP is required, all product is considered unapproved until the PPAP submission is formally approved by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Division sourcing the product and requesting the PPAP submission.
