Planning & Requirements

  • Is the customer quoted/required production rate (parts per hour/shift) documented as the target? *
  • Is the run-at-rate performed under normal production conditions using production tooling, equipment, and operators? *
  • Is the required run duration (e.g., 1-8 hours or a set number of parts) defined per customer requirement? *

Rate & Effectiveness

  • Was the actual demonstrated rate measured and compared against the quoted rate? *
  • Was overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) — availability, performance, quality — calculated for the run? *
  • Demonstrated rate achieved (parts/hour)

Quality & Yield

  • Was first-time-through quality / scrap and rework recorded during the run? *
  • Did product produced during the run conform to all specifications and acceptance criteria? *
  • Were bottleneck operations and cycle times evaluated against takt time? *

Logistics & Disposition

  • Was packaging, labeling, and material handling verified at the demonstrated rate? *
  • Are corrective actions defined if the demonstrated rate or quality did not meet requirements? *
  • Was the run-at-rate result approved by the customer where required for PPAP?
