Dave, you punctured my facetiousness beautifully, and taught me well at the same time. My compliments and thanks. I am, as you guessed, not familiar with the automotive world, and didn't know of these publications.

Automotive suppliers here in the US work to a superset of ISO-9000 called QS-9000. QS-9000 is distributed by the Automotive Industry Action Group [AIAG] [www.aiag.org]. Like any self-respecting legislative organization, they need to publish acronyms. Amoung the more important ones are: * Advanced Product Quality Planning [APQP]: A quality plan content definition * Production Part Approval Process [PPAP]: An audit process for qualifying third-party suppliers. These and other AIAG products are well thoughout documents that could help many companies tighten process documentation. Next week we'll do QSA and MSA.
