Good quality has a systematic background. A key factor in planning is to understand the needs of customers and, if necessary, to proactively implement corrections at an early stage in the process. Product quality planning is a structured method with standardised tools. The systematic project management of APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning) aims to include everything from the supply chain into the manufacturer’s quality planning. The goal is to minimise risks and reduce error costs. At the same time, cooperation in product and process development is promoted as early as possible. The formation of teams, the application of methods of project management and the use of special problem-solving techniques play an essential role in the implementation of APQP.
