Production and inspection of prototype parts Aim: To dispatch, on schedule, prototypes which meet cost and quality requirements. Expectations: Dates and quantities for the manufacture of prototypes must be planned, monitored and met. Inspection reports must be supplied with the prototypes (see QAA / S 296001-2 Production – Process and Product Release Procedure). Approval must be obtained from the customer for non-conforming prototypes prior to delivery. Documentation with supplier: Prototypes, inspection report Submission to customer: Status in APQP Status Report Prototypes and inspection report Drawings and specifications The term "drawings and all technical drawings, CAD data, material specifications“ includes specifications and technical specifications from the customer / supplier. Aim: To provide, on schedule (Design Freeze), all drawings and specifications that are needed to observe the initial volume production sample date/start of production (SOP). Expectations: The customer must be notified by the supplier of the latest possible date for making changes to volume production drawings and specifications to ensure that the planned initial volume production date is met. If responsibility for development work lies with the supplier, all drawings and specifications must be agreed with the customer at this point. Any that have been specified must be given appropriate consideration "special characteristics“ within the framework of the product and process planning process.
