Prospective Speaker: The Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG) welcomes your proposal for a session presentation at the 2021 Virtual Quality Summit on October 5-6, 2021. The theme for this year’s Quality Summit is “Charging up Your QMS – Innovative Quality Tools for a Digital Industry.”
Just as innovations in product technologies drive changes in consumer expectations, recent innovations in manufacturing and business methods and technologies will have a lasting impact on automotive vehicle manufacturers, their suppliers of all tiers, and the expectations and requirements for Quality Management Systems that bind them together.
During AIAG’s 2021 Virtual Quality Summit we will explore issues such as: the potential impacts of additive manufacturing and software product development on the requirements for project and product change management in APQP and PPAP; the potential impact of digital/AI process control technologies on the requirements for product traceability and Control Plan, and the impacts of virtual auditing methods and technologies on the strategies and requirements for internal, supplier, and 3rd party QMS certification audits. Your session proposal should address one of these topics.
Presentation Types:
Presentation style may be case studies or workshops. Absolutely NO commercial, sales pitches or endorsements will be considered or allowed in presentations. Time slot for each presentation is 30 minutes including Q&A. Workshop length will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Deadline for submission is April 2, 2021
Review of Proposals:
Proposals will be reviewed by the AIAG Quality Summit Planning Committee for acceptance based on relevance, demonstrated application, and innovation. Priority will be given to presentations that are based on automotive OEM or supplier case studies or include a hands-on workshop. There is no limit to the number of proposals you can submit. Authors of accepted proposals will be advised by May 14h, 2021 and provided further directions at that time. Speakers will be expected to submit their rough draft in PowerPoint format to AIAG no later than July 23rd, 2021
