- Lead part qualification activities by driving the APQP/PPAP process, evaluating and validating supplier manufacturing processes to ensure the delivery of high-quality, cost-effective, and reliable parts that meet design and regulatory requirements. This includes reviewing process flows, control plans, and risk assessments to ensure robust and repeatable manufacturing.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, procurement, and production teams to qualify new parts, assemblies, and raw materials used in electromechanical devices—such as plastics, sheet metal, electronic circuit boards, cables, and wire harnesses—ensuring suppliers meet technical, functional, and quality specifications.
- Develop, implement, and maintain supplier quality assurance strategies, inspection standards, and qualification procedures for both new product introductions and sustaining/legacy parts. Drive continuous improvement in supplier quality processes to align with industry best practices and company requirements.
- Review and approve supplier submissions including PPAP (Production Part Approval Process), FAI (First Article Inspection), and PSW (Part Submission Warrant), ensuring thorough compliance with engineering specifications, drawings, and quality system requirements prior to production release. Provide clear feedback and guidance to suppliers to close gaps efficiently.
Monitor and evaluate supplier performance using defined KPIs, delivery performance metrics, PPM (parts per million defect rates), and quality scorecards. Facilitate business reviews with suppliers, driving accountability and structured corrective/preventive actions to achieve sustainable performance improvements.
