Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) is used in the Aerospace or automotive supply chain for establishing confidence in suppliers and their production processes. Actual measurements are taken from the parts produced and are used to complete the various test sheets of PPAP. "All customer engineering design record and specification ...
First article inspection. A First Article Inspection (FAI) is a production validation process for verifying that a new or modified production process produces conforming parts that meet the manufacturing specification detailed in technical or engineering drawings. Typically, a supplier performs the FAI and the purchaser reviews the report.
Karen Scrivener. Karen Louise Scrivener is a material chemist known for her pioneering works in cementitious materials. She is the head of Laboratory of Construction Materials at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne [1] and served as the editor-in-chief of the Cement and Concrete Research journal for 15 years.
Business administration. Materials management is a core supply chain function and includes supply chain planning and supply chain execution capabilities. Specifically, materials management is the capability firms use to plan total material requirements. The material requirements are communicated to procurement and other functions for sourcing.
Building material is material used for construction. Many naturally occurring substances, such as clay, rocks, sand, wood, and even twigs and leaves, have been used to construct buildings and other structures, like bridges. Apart from naturally occurring materials, many man-made products are in use, some more and some less synthetic.
Advanced product quality planning. Advanced product quality planning (APQP) is a framework of procedures and techniques used to develop products in industry, particularly in the automotive industry. It differs from Six Sigma in that the goal of Six Sigma is to reduce variation but has similarities to Design for Six Sigma (DFSS).
Phenylpropylaminopentane. 1-Phenyl-2-propylaminopentane (PPAP; developmental code name MK-306) is an experimental drug related to selegiline which acts as a catecholaminergic activity enhancer (CAE). [1][2][3][4] PPAP is a CAE and enhances the nerve impulse propagation-mediated release of norepinephrine and dopamine. [1][3][4][5] It produces ...
Engineering change order. An engineering change order (ECO), also called an engineering change notice (ECN), engineering change (EC), or engineering release notice (ERN), is an artifact used to implement changes to components or end products. The ECO is utilized to control and coordinate changes to product designs that evolve over time.
