Built for Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers running IATF 16949, where every PPAP, every engineering change, and every 8D has to stay traceable across quality, engineering, and the supply base, and survive a customer audit and a warranty return.
Built for IATF 16949 automotive suppliers
Incumbents track a change-log entry and a PPAP folder. Unifize reconstructs the decision trace across every function an engineering change touched, and every customer submission it triggered.
The reconstruction always lands on someone. Find your seat, and see what you own when the trace has to hold up on an IATF 16949 audit or a warranty return.
Every change, deviation, and 8D decision stays reconstructable.
Cross-functional disposition, hold, and run-at-rate decisions move on one accountable thread.
Customer-specific requirements, PPAP submissions, and 8D responses flow on one governed trail.
Layered process audits, internal audits, and management-of-change decisions are captured where they happen.
Engineering and process changes move fast with their FMEA and control-plan rationale sealed to the record.
Each runs with IATF 16949 and your customers' CSRs built in. Start with the one that costs you most.
From the suspect lot at the line to an 8D the OEM accepts, inside the response window.
Engineering change carried to the FMEA, the control plan and the customer PPAP.
Sub-tier PPAP and supplier 8Ds across the boundary, not by email.
Every control-plan change cascades to training and the layered audit.
Unifize sits alongside the ERP, MES, QMS, and PLM you already run. It replaces the ungoverned channels where the decision trace goes missing, not the QAD, Plex, or InfinityQS systems that hold your production and SPC data.
Every approval is captured as an attributable, time-stamped electronic signature, so the decision trace is the audit trail your customer auditor asks for, not a reconstruction under a controlled-shipping clock.
PPAP assembly, engineering-change impact, FMEA and control-plan linkage, and layered-process-audit posture are walked through with your team before anything touches a controlled record.
Customer and certification deadlines, not internal outcomes. Each one routes to the process that answers it and the team that owns the response.

Pick a change, an 8D, or a PPAP you could not replay at the last customer audit. We will reconstruct it live.
