PPAP and Safe Launch Support for Kentucky Truck Plant Suppliers

Safe Launch is the heightened-control period at the start of production when a new or changed part is watched more closely until it proves stable. New model programs and engineering changes at the Kentucky Truck Plant are exactly when a small miss becomes an expensive escape. SupplyShield provides independent on-site quality support through PPAP, GP-12, and safe launch so your parts stay clean while the process settles.

GP-12 and early production containment

GP-12 adds a dedicated inspection during launch or after a concern, checking new parts against defined criteria before they ship. We staff and run that added inspection, document results, and flag drift early, so issues are caught at your dock rather than on the customer line.

PPAP and launch readiness

During ramp-up we help keep the quality evidence organized, support the paperwork and inspection expectations tied to your submission, and provide extra hands during the critical first weeks. When volume is climbing and tolerances are tight, that on-site presence protects both your scorecard and the launch timing.

Independent support, local presence

SupplyShield by Integrity Driven Solutions is independent and works for the supplier. Local crews in the Louisville area mean launch coverage is a phone call away, without the cost and delay of flying a team in for every shift.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is safe launch support?
Safe launch is a heightened-control period at the start of production where new or changed parts get added inspection until they prove stable. We staff and document that added control on-site.
Do you run GP-12 containment during launch?
Yes. We set up and run GP-12 early-production containment, checking parts against defined criteria and documenting results so drift is caught before it reaches the customer.
Can you help with PPAP during ramp-up?
We support the inspection and evidence expectations tied to your PPAP and provide extra on-site hands during the critical first weeks of a launch. We are a quality support provider, not your customer-side approver.

Yes. We provide launch and safe-launch quality support for suppliers on new model and engineering-change programs feeding the Kentucky Truck Plant.
