- A PPCN is required whenever there is a change to the design or production process.
- Examples include: a new supplier of subcomponents, change in inspection or testing method, rearranging production machinery.
- Any changes affecting customer requirements like fit, form, function, performance, durability, etc.
- Changes to the design require approval from DTNA engineering
- DTNA engineering are the only ones that can approve a change to a part, after getting their approval submit the PPCN.
- Depending on the change, a new PPAP may get requested for the part.
