RUN @ RATE GP-9 PURPOSE The purpose of a Run @ Rate is to verify: the suppliers actual manufacturing process is capable of producing components that meet GMs on-going quality requirements, as stated in the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP), at quoted tooling capacity for a specified period of time; and the suppliers actual manufacturing process conforms to the manufacturing and quality plan documented by the supplier in PPAP, GP-12 and other required documentation. During a Run @ Rate, all production tooling is to be in place and running at full capacity, utilizing all regular production, direct and indirect, personnel and support systems. SCOPE All new parts require a Run @ Rate, unless exempted by the supplier quality engineer and approved by the Supplier Quality and Purchasing Directors of the procuring division. SELECTION PROCESS All new part numbers will be evaluated by GM, taking into consideration factors such as the following: history; new technology; irreversible tooling changes; and new supplier facilities. The need for the Run @ Rate will be confirmed by the Supplier Quality Engineer, and approved by the Supplier Quality and Purchasing Director(s) of the procuring division. The supplier will be notified of the need to perform a customer monitored or supplier monitored Run @ Rate as early in the Advanced Product Quality Planning Process as possible. Note: See Section VIII for Additional Requirements for Supplier monitored Run @ Rate. GENERAL INFORMATION DURATION OF RUN @ RATE The number of components to be produced during the Run @ Rate should be sufficient to demonstrate manufacturing process capability and should be predetermined by the supplier and the procuring divisions Supplier Quality Engineer(s). Factors such as product complexity, shelf life, storage, cost and single shift vs. multiple shift operations are taken into consideration in determining the length of the Run @ Rate. The default length of the Run @ Rate is one day of t
