Powering Performance

Want to make sure you’re the first to know when our presale kicks off for the new APQP and Control Plan? We’ve got you covered. Simply visit the AIAG website, and provide your email address to ensure you’re on our contact list for the big announcement!

If you haven’t checked out our Quality Training Store lately, now’s the time! With four new training courses – focusing on FMEA, Reverse FMEA, SPC, and MSA, respectively – we’ve got more options than ever to choose from.

Problem: FMEA/Control Plan is the top contributor to Quality issues.

Solution: AIAG’s Core Tools Support™ (CTS) Software was developed by your customers to alleviate those issues.

Have you spotted the latest addition to our Quality Training Store? If not, now’s the time to check out the new AIAG & VDA Process FMEA Certification Exam!

Developed with a global team of automotive OEM and Tier 1 supplier subject matter experts, the AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook incorporates best practices from both AIAG and VDA methodologies into a harmonized, structured, approach.

Does your Process FMEA match your manufacturing process? Reverse PFMEA is a structured process used to ensure your PFMEA matches your process, and your process matches your PFMEA. The PFMEA is evaluated using actual process performance, as the PFMEA is compared to process metrics and is walked through the manufacturing process to validate the match. This continual improvement tool verifies your manufacturing process is performing as intended and that all identified error proofing is implemented and functioning.

AIAG’s Core Tools Self-Assessment (CTSA) experienced a monumental year in 2021 – a year that included preparation of a new CTSA language, a change in FMEA focus, and an organization using the CTSA to drive Core Tools competency and employee training plans. 

The results are in – the latest data from our Core Tools Self-Assessment (CTSA) is now available on our Core Tools Self-Assessment Industry Results page!

As we continue to update and develop our Core Tools Support (CTS) software to improve the user experience, we’re excited to announce the addition of two new support features on our main CTS webpage, and a new task screen in the software itself!

Since launching the new AIAG Core Tools Support™ (CTS) software, we’ve been busy collecting feedback, working on updates and making improvements. In light of this, AIAG held a CTS software update webinar on June 6^th, during which AIAG program manager John Cachat shared a short demo, and details on the software’s newest features – added in response to feedback from users around the globe – as well as upcoming functionality to support the new AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook.
