APQP and PPAP Software Solution

GroundControl is the easiest to use APQP / PPAP software built for aerospace, defense, and precision manufacturing teams. Some benefits include:

Build and manage APQP programs end-to-end — from planning through launch, with every deliverable tied to parts, suppliers, and revisions.
Generate PPAP packages fast and correctly with guided workflows for every element (DFMEA/PFMEA, Control Plan, MSA, SPC, FAIRs, etc.).
Keep revisions and evidence organized automatically so you always know what changed, why it changed, and what needs re-approval.
Collect data once, reuse everywhere — requirements, characteristics, and more flow through APQP / PPAP without re-entry.
Export to any customer format at no extra cost (AIAG-compliant PPAP, OEM-specific checklists, or your internal templates).
Built-in export controls to compliantly handle ITAR and CUI data in Government Cloud environments.

Eliminate paper-based APQP and PPAP

Stop managing APQP and PPAP in spreadsheets and email. GroundControl puts every phase, deliverable, and PPAP element in one place, with evidence tied directly to the right requirement. Everyone works from the same revision-controlled source of truth, and sign-offs happen in-system, so submissions don’t stall or go missing.

Dramatically faster PPAP creation

GroundControl cuts PPAP prep from weeks to hours by automating structure and linking evidence automatically. Guided checklists prevent missed elements, and real-time readiness shows what’s complete or blocking approval. You can safely reuse content from similar parts or revisions, reducing rework and resubmissions.

Zero setup burden for IT

GroundControl is cloud-based, so teams can start immediately without installs or maintenance. IT stays out of the loop while users get a clean workflow and automatic weekly updates. Secure deployment options support regulated environments, from small pilots to large multi-supplier rollouts.
