FMEA Risks and Project Quality System
- Track the progress of each APQP phase and key milestone
- Set up alerts and notifications for at-risk milestones and deliverables (Core Tools or KBD
- Collect PPAPs for each BOM component from suppliers, or develop the FAI
- Manage resources and plan tasks using a Gantt chart by component
- Integrate suppliers through an external portal and monitor the progress of their deliverables
- Build process flow diagrams, perform Product and Process FMEA
- Identify root causes using an Ishikawa diagram and create control plans synchronized with the FMEA
- Save time by reusing component, function, or process blocks
- Automatically generate the PPAP package and speed up the signature workflow

APQP stands for Advanced Product Quality Planning, which can be translated as structured quality planning and product control planning. It is a process for carrying out activities with milestones and deliverables. APQP applies either to the development of new products or to products undergoing transfer or reengineering.
It is a project-based approach to product development focused on the expected product quality through structured activities. Among these development activities—industrialization, validation, verification, and production launch—various tools and methods are used, including validation plans, risk analyses (FMEA for Product and Process), and control plans. These tools allow teams to execute, verify, and validate tasks guided by milestone reviews.
These steps are performed, validated, and shared by different actors (internal and external) with associated workflows and progress tracking.
Based on anticipating risks and managing them through mitigation or trade-offs, APQP helps establish trust between client and supplier through a structured and documented approach. It is subject to audits and is adapted into different frameworks depending on the industrial sector.
