4.2.1 Performance Review APQP-Closure

Purpose:

• Eliminate risks to ensure 100% successful launch and serial production.
• Ensure 100% of APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning) activities are closed including both PPAP and S-APQP.

Input from Veoneer:

• Complaint reports, if any.

Requirements:

1. Supplier Launch Performance Review:

• Perform a launch and process review.
• Follow-up any specified project QCD-targets (Quality/Cost/Delivery), (e.g. production efficiency, failure rates, delivery performance, customer feed-back etc.) and implement actions for any non-conformities.
• Monitor early production containment (SQPS-412 Interim Inspection Plan) actions (if requested by Veoneer). If problems occur, define further countermeasures until problems are solved.
• SQPS-412 actions can not be terminated before written approval from Veoneer has been issued.

2. Closure of APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning):

• All open APQP issues shall be resolved and closed.
• All Lessons Learned shall be identified, documented and implemented and if requested shared with Veoneer.
• For all projects, the SQP project shall be documented and all required deliverables submitted through 'SQP IT application in APP' (see Training).

3. Continuous Performance Monitoring:

• For continuous performance monitoring the supplier shall follow the VS051 requirements and set up further relevant key indicators. "General Requirements/Specific Requirements/Manufacturing Systems“.
• All VS051 and other relevant key indicators and referred action plans must be available for Veoneer review upon request.
• Note: Supplier should carefully review his VS051-results on monthly basis. If supplier can not reproduce or does not agree to the VS051-results submitted by Veoneer, Supplier should answer to Veoneer immediately by using the VS051 Dispute form.

Output from Supplier:

• Zero-defects.
• Quality performance according to specifications.
• 8D reports and action plans for any non-conforming issues.
• 100% on time deliveries.
• Closure of S-APQP by submission of above necessary deliverables to Veoneer SQ through the SQP project task 'project closure' using 'SQP IT application in VPP'.

Required Documents:

• Submission of necessary deliverables as an evidence through the SQP project task 'project closure' using 'SQP IT application in VPP'.
