GLOSSARY Abstract
Must be used by suppliers in the submission of production approval parts for approval to Chrysler, Ford, or General Motors. Current differences between the three processes have resulted in additional demands on supplier resources. To improve this situation, Chrysler, Ford and General Motors developed and will distribute this commonized procedure through AIAG.
