APQP & QUALITY PLANNING · Before SOP

Implement APQP. Make it work in real projects.

I integrate APQP into existing company processes and take on defined operational quality planning tasks – for manufacturers, customers and suppliers.

YOUR CHALLENGE

When this support adds value.

APQP creates value when phases, responsibilities, tools and objective evidence work together. I help introduce or improve your APQP process and apply it actively in live development and industrialisation projects. When capacity is tight or specialist APQP expertise is required, I can take on clearly defined project tasks.

Alongside supplier-related quality planning, I can also take on defined APQP tasks directly within your project organisation.

01 / USE CASES

Typical situations.

Focused operational support can help when any of these situations apply.

01

APQP is required but not embedded in your project workflow.

02

Suppliers face APQP requirements without clear deliverables or deadlines.

03

Engineering, purchasing, production and quality use conflicting milestones.

02 / SCOPE OF WORK

What I deliver for your team.

Clear activities, traceable evidence and outputs your team can use.

01

Design the APQP workflow

Integrate phases, roles, gate criteria and quality evidence into existing processes.

02

Deploy practical tools

Create usable checklists, timing plans, maturity reviews and action trackers.

03

Integrate suppliers

Align requirements, follow up deliverables and monitor maturity with suppliers.

04

Deliver project tasks

The implementation is tailored to your existing process model, customer requirements and agreed project scope.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions.

Do you implement APQP only at suppliers?

No. I support manufacturers and customers as well as their suppliers.

Can you also take over operational APQP tasks?

Yes. Defined APQP deliverables, coordination and progress tracking can be included in the assignment.

LET’S TALK

Need APQP to work in daily project delivery?

Every assignment is different. I assess your needs and prepare an individual proposal with a clearly defined scope of work.
