Planning

The purpose of the integrated Control Plan/CTP module is the easy creation and maintenance of Work-flow of the Technical Control Process according to the requirements of IATF 16949, AIAG/APQP, VDA 4.3 and customer requirements. The created Work-flow can be used in the FMEA module. For its creation information from the Parts and Contacts module are used.

The APQP module includes processes of planning, organisation, monitoring and management of all project activities in real time so that the required project objectives may be achieved. Processes and objectives of quality management apply to all project management processes used above all: to plan and implement projects introducing new products, to implement new technologies according to methodologies meeting requirements of standards to manage and implement procedures changing already functioning processes to improve the quality of processes and products in the case of changes in organisation and projects. The PALSTAT Project complies with the requirements of standards and the automotive industry ČSN ISO 10006 Quality Management Directive for quality in project management APQP Modern production planning/Advanced Product Quality Planning and Control Plan.

The Job Orders module is intended for the identification of a production batch. These batches are assigned to In process or SPC modules. Very often job orders are generated from the ERP system. Basic linkage of a job order to a part in the Parts database module.

Basic information on the Control Technological Procedure. Link to the Database of Parts module to add the basic quality signs, sizes and dimensions. Functions to approve a Control Technical Procedure. Possibility to add other information through the annex function. Part tree function to compile the CTR Construction Technological Roster.

CRM Inquiry-Offer Processing receipt and registering of inquiries, preparation of calculation, connecting offers to the Contacts module
Catalogue of Project Activities type models of activities for individual commodities areas, origin of a new product/process, modification procedure
Project Management monitoring of project course deadlines, definition of responsibility for the project/stages/steps
Management of tools and fixtures tasks, selection procedure, monitoring development of tools and fixtures.

Automatic Job order identification can be set. Definition of subject and state of order (In preparation, Active, Archive) is necessary.
Other setting possibilities:
- Time line of order - Initiation, Termination
- Control plan by which evaluation is possible via the In process checking module
- Business partner for which an order is realized
- Total order size and size of production batch
- Other necessary identification

Window to describe the Operation with indication of the index of the change, name and basic information about the technical control instruction. Possibility to include a drawing. Definition and indication of a special process.

Basic parameters of the project tasks, project designation, research team, APQP project start and end deadlines
Project definition using the catalogue of project steps and stages
Project statistics clearly arranged, monitoring of the fulfilment level of the project, stages, steps, milestones
Monitoring of changes in the project, record of changes made in the project, stages, steps
Monitoring of events and tasks using the Management of events and tasks module.

This section includes many text, number and data fields, which can be used for further identification, specification, filter and summary creation etc.

Window to describe Operation with indication of the index of the change, name and basic information about the control technical instruction. Possibility to include a drawing and definition and indication of a special process

Receipt of an inquiry and registration in the PALSTAT Project APQP system
Inputs/customers requirements
Objectives of proposed new product process
Assessment of the feasibility of the requirements of the customer project ordering party
Assessment of technical and economic analysis of product/process production
Price calculation preparation/ Preparation and delivery of offer
Monitoring of offer validity / Customer response
Release of contract for implementation / specification of a new product project.

Column order can be defined by each user. All fields can be filtered, shift, group. Lists can be printed or exported to types of documents (XLS,PDF,HTML etc.)

In work sheets Equipment (Measures, tools,...) can be added. Sheets are created in Palstat view. Printing for sheet creation including e.g. more pictures can be used in connection with Microsoft Word. In this case sheets are not on the server but are saved in the Palstat database. Headings and footers can be loaded from the Control plan module. (Paper and electronic documents must be the same).

sources workers ensuring activities in the project stages/steps, time schedule terms of fulfilment of stages/steps, budget finance for stages/steps, description of project activities in stages/steps, review of the project course milestone, review step/assessment or project work and activities progress, project documentation registration and management of tasks in electronic form, direct connection to PALSTAT CAQ modules. Monitoring of the project course, systematic monitoring of the level of fulfilment of individual project stages/steps, time monitoring of the hours of individual project stages/steps

Define quality requirements vary and attribute elements (dimensions, norm requirements a test etc.) Description and marking of critical parts including graphical view in JPG format. These elements are used in module control plan, import to Sampling, MSA, FMEA etc. For use in "approved control plan there is closed editation of these elements including the possibility of deletion.

Function to record, document and save measurements of quality indicators and sizes (entered manually in the PC).

Module for analysis, the search has been processed FMEA according to parameters:
- Unfulfilled corrective action
- Processes, systems
- Critical RPN
- Defects
- Causes

This function is determined for the definition of control steps according to IATF 16949, AIAG/APQP, VDA 4.3 and customer requirements. Steps description is referenced with parameters from the Parts database module or parameters for Operation. Besides basic functions (Step description, Methodics, Size sampling to check, Plan reaction, etc.) is a more detailed definition of control steps for evaluation and record.

Preparation of Workflow block diagram analysis of system risks / design / process / in tree structure. Identification of all characteristics or product, process technologies relevant to each operation. Evaluation of faults, causes and effects by means of these criteria: - Fault severity - (S), - Fault occurrence - (O), - Detection (D), - Calculation of the Risk Priority Numberr (RPN), - Determination of measures for high RPN numbers with responsibilities for these measures

This module includes many possibilities for the conveying of information from database into paper form. In the module print reports are prepared or each user can define according to their requirements. Also, a special customer summary can be created with the Reporting module (Palstat component).
