AUTOMOTIVE QUALITY HISTORY
Connect repeat defects across 8D, PPAP and supplier history.
A controlled way to retrieve earlier evidence when a repeat defect may span product family, plant, process step or supplier response.

Illustrative workflow — not customer data or a customer result.
This scenario describes a possible workflow using no customer records. Terminology, obligations and approval authorities must be checked against the manufacturer's products, markets and controlled procedures.
THE SITUATION
A recognisable starting point.
Not a promised result.
A customer complaint resembles a defect previously contained through an 8D. The team needs to compare the old failure mode, verified actions and process-change evidence before deciding the next investigation step.
What the team needs to know
Is the earlier 8D genuinely relevant, what changed, and does the available evidence support or weaken a recurrence hypothesis?
What RepeatProof can prepare
- Evidence-linked potentially related events
- Comparison of failure, process and supplier signals
- Previous containment and action summary
- Reviewer-labelled shortlist for QMS handback
Decision boundary
RepeatProof does not approve an 8D, PPAP, deviation, product release or customer response. Customer-specific requirements and the authorised quality team remain authoritative.
CONTROLLED PATH
From approved export
to governed handback.
Each stage has an owner and a visible boundary. Exact fields, systems, permissions and retention are agreed before data is exchanged.
Confirm the question
A named quality owner defines the current issue, records in scope and decisions that remain outside RepeatProof.
Check data readiness
Required fields, record counts, date coverage, missing values and source ownership are checked before analysis.
Prepare related history
Versioned rules surface potentially related records with source references, match reasons, confidence and limitations.
Review and hand back
An authorised person records Accept, Maybe or Reject and returns the approved evidence pack to the controlled customer process.
Confirm your real
workflow boundary.
The assessment checks whether your history is suitable and identifies the smallest credible first proof. It does not require a live QMS integration.
