How to complete Customer-Specific Requirements

Customer-specific requirements are the additional rules, forms, portals, labels, tests, records, and approvals imposed by a particular customer. They must be identified before PPAP evidence is assembled.

Step-by-step completion sequence

  1. Collect current requirements from the customer’s official sources.
  2. Create a checklist that maps each applicable requirement to an owner and evidence.
  3. Resolve conflicts and missing information with the customer before the submission date.
  4. Complete the evidence review before signing the PSW.
  5. Retain the checklist and update it when customer requirements change.
