This would normally involve a schedule for carrying out the Qualification Plan developed in Block 9 or that previously available from Block 6. Block 9 Component Engineering prepares or validates a Qualification Plan for the part appropriate to its application in the circuit and its operating envelope. Block 10 Quality Engineering determines the Quality Program Level to be applied to the manufacturer and distributor. Block 11 Quality Engineering determines whether the manufacturer and distributor meet the requirements of the Quality Program decided upon in Block 10. Block 12 Procurement orders material.
Material is delivered.
If the manufacturer or distributor are not approved, Quality Engineering assesses them against the Quality Program requirements determined in Block 10. If the manufacturer or distributor is now approved to the new plan developed in Block 14, the process proceeds to Procurement. If not, the Designer gets back into the loop to choose a new supplier or to redesign the assembly. Block 17 Activities required in conformance with the component specification from Block 5 or 7 and planned in the Qualification Plan from Block 6 or 9 are performed. Paperwork is completed.
