APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning)

Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) is a structured approach used in product development to ensure quality from the very start. It involves planning, designing, and testing a product to meet customer needs and industry standards. APQP helps teams identify potential risks, establish clear goals, and collaborate effectively throughout the product lifecycle. By following this process, companies can anticipate problems, improve product reliability, and reduce costs, ultimately leading to higher customer satisfaction and successful product launches.
