In today’s extensive global market, companies rely heavily on a diverse supply chain and superior performance for achieving their business goals. The software of a traditional supply chain allows tracking of inventory, PPAP submissions, delivery, and more. In recent years, the customer-supplier collaboration during FMEA development has been more passive and viewed less as document and more as a joint New Product Development activity.
The AIAG-VDA FMEA requires close collaboration among the customer, supplier and sub suppliers. This relationship could extend up to six levels including hardware and software. How can this relationship be handled in software? How can you link the supply chain and the customer into a web/cloud based collaboration? How can you link failure data to the failure mode and broadcast this information to the supply chain for corrective and preventive action? It is also important to understand how to create the “Engineering V” linking DFMEA to DVP&R and special characteristics populating the Process Flow, PFMEA, Control Plan and Work Instructions. This linkage among the customer, supplier and sub suppliers including manufacturing is a global linkage connecting Europe, the Americas, Asia and more. This approach opens a new avenue for the supply chain to collaborate, share and manage the supply chain risks.
