1 - Background and expectations!
Background for APQP
• Since almost 10 years, Volvo CE is using PQAP (Part Quality Assurance Plan) for quality
assurance of purchased parts. This tool is unique for Volvo CE, see process below.
• Since several years, there has been discussions about changing to other more
standardized tools. Majority of other Volvo Business Areas and Business Units have
already changed to APQP.
• In 2009 a decision was made that Volvo CE shall align to the rest of Volvo and implement
APQP because there is a clear business benefit.
• The target is that APQP is implemented for all new projects during 2012.

Planning of Product Realization
Planning of Product Realization is a requirement which
means any organization ISO certified (whether 9001 or
TS 16949) MUST plan and develop the processes
needed for product realization.

APQP Requirements towards suppliers
Summary
• Volvo CE plan to change from PQAP to APQP gradually during 2012.
For all new projects from 2012 and onwards, APQP methodology will
be used.
• APQP is a basic business requirement valid for all suppliers, this is
included in Volvo Key Element Procedures available in the Volvo
Group Supplier Portal, link here.
• APQP includes product and process validation according to PPAPmethodology.
• Certification according to ISO/TS 16949 will not be a mandatory
requirement for suppliers to Volvo CE.
• Volvo CE will to a high extent use the same routines, templates and
interface documents as Volvo Group Trucks Æ APQP will become
common within Volvo Group.
• Specific Volvo CE APQP requirements, instructions and templates
will be available in the supplier portal during 2012.

APQP-expectations on Volvo CE supplier
base!
• APQP is a project management methodology and a quality assurance
process, which is the responsibility of the supplier. Therefore suppliers must
be ready to run projects using APQP methodology by 2012.
• Suppliers who are not familiar with APQP should take contact with 3rd party
training companies and join training. Volvo CE will not manage full supplier
APQP training. Supplier days and information sessions will be held where
specific Volvo CE APQP process and supplier expectations are
communicated.
• Suppliers should update internal processes in line with APQP requirements.
APQP requirements are available in publications from AIAG (www.aiag.org).
• Continued supplier support is very appreciated and essential for successful
implementation of projects according to APQP. Volvo CE is convinced that
working together we will achieve a higher level of QDCF on our products to
satisfy our customers.

• Contact information and co-signed time plan
• Share with supplier!
• Supplier should review the following tabs:
APQP REVIEWS
HOW TO USE THIS XCEL FILE
PRELIMINARY NOTES :
1/ This APQP excel sheet should be used for any new component purchased for use on serial production - MANDATORY for Key Components
2/ Multiple components can be covered in the same APQP file if the design and processes are very similar. In that case all the part numbers
considered need to be mentioned in the "Co-signed Time plan" sheet
3/ There is a difference made between development suppliers and non-development suppliers.
Secure you are using the right APQP Reviews Status Xcel document.
PURPOSE OF THE APQP REVIEWS :
The purpose of this document is to make sure the supplier manage his project with VOLVO in the right way and to provide him some support in
doing so.

5 – Requirements for Production Part
Approval (PPAP)
Purpose of Production Part Approval
Process (PPAP)!
• To secure that all Volvo engineering design records and
specification requirements are properly applied by the supplier,
• That the manufacturing process has the potential to produce
products meeting these requirements during an actual production
run at the quoted serial production rate.
Volvo Construction Equipment
Volvo CE, Purchasing & Supply Management
33 2012-10-12
When is Production Part Approval
Process (PPAP) required?
The Supplier shall obtain PPAP approval from Volvo prior to the
first production shipment in the following situations:
• A new part (initial release),
• When first PPAP submission was not approved,
• Engineering change to design records, specifications or materials for
production product/part number(s),
• Process technology new to the supplier not previously used for this
product,
• When requested by Volvo, for example following a significant change
to the production set up, such as a large and rapid increase to
production volume requiring significant production changes.
Volvo Construction Equipment
Volvo CE, Purchasing & Supply Management
34 2012-10-12
Significant Production Run (SPR)
• Sample Parts for PPAP should be taken from a significant production
run.
• When performing the significant production run, all aspects of
variability within the production process should be considered and
tested where practicable, e.g. set-ups.
• Approved PPAP or Initial sample from 2nd tier suppliers is required.
• The significant production run shall be conducted at the production
site, using the production tooling, production gaging, production
process, production operators and production materials.
• Parts from each unique production process e.g. duplicate assembly
line and/or work cell, each position of a multiple cavity, die, mould,
tool or pattern, shall be measured and representative parts tested.
Volvo Construction Equipment
Volvo CE, Purchasing & Supply Management
35 2012-10-12
Sample size for Significant Production
Run!
• The quantity of parts produced for the significant production run may
vary depending upon the manufacturing process and production
supply quantity forecasts.
• The quantity should be discussed and jointly defined between the
Supplier Development Engineer and the supplier early in the APQP
process and communicated latest when sending the PPAP sample
order.
• In Automotive industry a production run to a quantity of minimum 300
consecutive parts is done! Æ Not valid for VCE!
• When applicable , a minimum of 30 pieces should be produced
during the SPR for preliminary process capability studies.
• Agreed sample size can be exceeded by the supplier.
