PPAP deliverable guide
How to complete Part Submission Warrant (PSW)
The PSW is the supplier’s formal statement of the PPAP submission status for a specified part and configuration. Complete the customer’s current form or portal fields exactly as required.
Complete the fields
- Part and organization identification
- Enter the customer part number, supplier part number, part name, manufacturing site, supplier code, customer, and submission date exactly as requested.
- Submission reason and level
- Select the actual reason for submission and the customer-requested submission level. Do not choose a level based on a previous program.
- Part weight and production information
- Complete weight, cavity count, tooling, or production information only as defined by the customer form and using the required units.
- Declaration and result
- State the submission result truthfully. List deviations, interim approvals, or nonconformities through the customer’s required route; do not certify full approval when evidence is incomplete.
- Authorized signature
- The designated supplier representative signs only after the evidence matrix and cross-document review are complete. Record name, title, date, and customer disposition.
Step-by-step completion sequence
- Use the customer’s current PSW form or portal and confirm the requested submission reason and level.
- Complete identification fields from controlled source records, not memory or old PSWs.
- Verify all requested PPAP evidence is complete, current, traceable, and internally reviewed.
- Document deviations or interim conditions according to customer instructions.
- Obtain authorized supplier sign-off, submit through the required route, and retain the customer disposition.
PPAP control point: The customer’s current submission request, customer-specific requirements, and approved forms control. This guide explains a practical way to prepare the record; it does not authorize a substitute format or acceptance criterion.
