New model products that typically follow APQP process include Core Revisions (Enhanced product changes), Augmented (Modified) product changes, or Extended product lines.

PPAP & FAI helps to prove the supplier has the capability to CONSISTENTLY, deliver the product to requirements before, during, and after launch. Any changes in the process, requires re-submittal of the product or process for approval.
