Automating the Production Part Approval Process
"I have had the good fortune to have worked with Mia at two companies and have always been impressed by her strong work ethic, attention to detail, and ability to never miss a deadline. The quality of her work is consistently excellent, well-thought-out and, most importantly, well explained to stakeholders and development teams. Mia is a solid team player and enthusiastically shares new insights, new tools, and tips and tricks with other UX practitioners and is seen as a leader by UX practitioners, stakeholders, and development teams."

Overview
Texas Instruments is an American information technology company specializing in the design and manufacturing of semiconductors and integrated circuits.
We embarked on the creation of a novel application tailored to automate the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP). This standardized process, widely utilized in the automotive and aerospace industries, facilitates communication and approval of concepts and production processes between manufacturers and suppliers—both before, during, and after the manufacturing phase.
THE CHALLENGE
Customers faced a challenge in purchasing auto parts for their designs, as they were required to meticulously examine and approve each product, navigating through the lengthy and costly Production Part Approval Process (PPAP). This manual procedure proved time-consuming and expensive, significantly impacting the timely acquisition of products. Customers experienced frustration as the request for a PPAP could lead to delays of weeks or even months, resulting in late orders.
The Challenge was to automate this process.

04 UX Design - hi-fidelity
05 Hand-off and collaboration with developers
Outcomes
The first iteration has been successfully developed, concentrating on automating Level 1 PPAPs, which are less intricate. Subsequent releases will extend automation to all PPAPs, ensuring immediate availability. This enhancement is geared towards simplifying the PPAP process for engineers, designers, and TI customer service agents.
