Focusing on the "why" behind the "what" and "when," the APQP 3rd edition manual addresses how to improve successful new product launches with updates to reflect agile product management and new sections on sourcing, change management, APQP program metrics, risk assessment mitigation plans, and gated management. Along with the removal of control plan content - now a standalone document - further revisions include new information on "part traceability," various checklists, and examples of common analytical techniques used during the APQP process to help enhance your understanding.
